What's Up with This?

[Gerry Clinchy]

They claim that giving out any details about presidential trips would be a security risk.

They can tell us where he's going, where he's staying, who he's seeing, for how long, & many other details ... but it would be a security risk to release an approximate the cost of the trip? Doesn't quite make sense to me.

I don't know why all the uproar all the sudden. All presidents take foreign trips....that are expensive as hell...and the SS has NEVER been keen on allowing any information to be released, except for official press releases. This has been true of every president in modern history, not just Barak Obama. This is just typical partisan attacks, no different from the attacks levied against Bush when he travelled, or the next republican president, when he or she travels.
