(Jeffrey Salzberg) And, once again, I'm having to hand-feed a liberal information that he could easily google up, if he had the slightest bit of research ability. You probably won't understand this, but all the other planes were not factored into the costs of the trip. The 27 March Air Force Times piece should be of interest. The article details the more than $50 Million cost of the Clinton India-Pakistan trip. Nowhere else in the press have we seen reported the fact that, in addition to AIR FORCE ONE and five other Andrews' aircraft, the outbound trip is using 14 C-17s from Charleston, 12 C-5s, three C-141s, two C-130s. Also, seven KC-10s and 39 KC-135s are providing air-refueling support. The return trip requires an additional 10 C-5s and another three KC-135s. (The 22 C-5s, thus occupied, represent one third of the Air Force's entire operational C-5 fleet) You might note that the "reporter" failed to add the "cost" of this "trip" to his story... On this trip to India, Chelsea and her Dad visited the Taj Mahal -- the burial tomb of a Muslim Persian princess. It was built in 1631, and is the most famous building in India. Chelsea also traveled to the memorial site of Mahatma Ghandi, the leader who inspired non-violent resistance, a technique used by Martin Luther King Jr. No, I don't expect you to understand the "between the lines" costs. You just don't have the brainpower necessary to put two and two together.... Mike Smith
