Travel Time

Mark Knoller of CBS keeps track of everything the president does. This includes trips, speeches, golf games, etc. Feast your eyes on this: In 2010 Obama made 172 trips in Air Force One. That's about one every other day. He made 196 helicoptor trips and played 29 rounds of golf.
It costs us (the tax-payers) $181,757 per flight hour for Air Force One. That does not count Marine One, Secret Service, logistics and local police overtime. What more can I say?
