Hey it's only tax payers money why worry about it. :rolleyes: I wonder when they leave office if they will still do stupid sheot like this, when they have to foot the bill themselves.


President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama flew to Los Angeles on Thursday for TV appearances but took separate flights, collectively costing taxpayers at least $1 million.
The president went to appear live on comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show on ABC, while the first lady went to Warner Bros.’ studios in nearby Burbank to tape an appearance on Ellen Degeneres’ popular daytime show that is scheduled to air on Monday.
Obama traveled on Air Force One, which reportedly costs taxpayers at least $200,000 per flight hour. So the price of his five-hour, coast-to-coast trip will be roughly $1 million.
The cost of an Air Force flight like the one the first lady took reportedly costs more than $28,000 an hour.

I'm sure they tell each other that the reason is safety/security related re: what happened in the movie Air Force One. But the truth is....they can't stand each other.
