The President's entourage on this trip is the most outlandish thing anyone has ever heard of. Then again everything Mr. Obama does has to be on a historically grand scale. Biggest government, biggest spending, biggest budget, biggest deficits, biggest joke.

While our president is over there stumbling over what to say about Muslims, the Bush tax cut issue sits idle and January looms.
And the statement that he's traveling with 3,000 people is one of the biggest lies ever. In reality, the trip is NOT costing more than the entire war effort in Afghanistan ($190 million/day). Even The Wall Street Journal says the report is "demonstrably incorrect." C'mon man, this originally came from ONE anonymous Indian official! Does that REALLY seem like a credible source to you??

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: If you want to criticize Obama, there's plenty of material to be found if you stick to the facts. There's no need to repeat ridiculous reports like that one.

As to the tax cuts, I believe that most will be extended. Probably not all of them.
