Wasting Taxpayer Dollars = Reiterating "What He Said Before"

I was just wondering why the president goes to places like Yuma, AZ to deliver essentially the same message he has iterated before. It must be because he loves wasting taxpayer dollars to fly his whole entourrage all about the USA. Don't the W, Rove and Co belive that, with the internet, there is no need to waste taxpayer dollars to "reiterate what he said before?"
Q Do you think anything new in the speech, or mostly the same message with a new backdrop?

MR. SNOW: Basically the same message. The President is going to reiterate what he said before.
Aparently, the answer to my question above is a resounding "nope!"


By the way, would any one hazard a guess as to how many American Taxpayer Dollars this photo op cost us?

Have you ever been to Yuma? Its a gas and eat stop, nothing more. I can't figure out why the hell he even went there..did the Presidential ride break down?

He isn't setting a very good example of fuel conservation, is he? I guess it keeps him busy and away from the nuke button.

you asked how much did it cost ? maybe we should FOIA his expeneses on these little sideshow trips...what a waste of money. What I find more interesting is that on these little junkets - they never even show him meeting with the repug reps....the last two times he came to Ohio NONE showed up at the Airport or the Luncheons, same with Cheney this week ( and it was a GOP fundraiser- susposedly)
