The amount of gas burned by those waiting in traffic was a disgrace. Our pesident ought to be ashamed of the wasted time and gasoline his visit cost. I saw his cavalcade go by while waiting in traffic for over an hour. The number of police, cars and large vehicles could have paid tuition for a student for a year....If he really wants to put this country back in the front...the waste of money needs to start with him.

The same thing happened every time President Bush went anywhere via motorcade as well, you know. Would you like to complain about him, too? Equal opportunity to spread the blame!
