This 3-day bus tour is being touted as The Magical Mystery Tour, or The "Stimubus"..........bought and paid for by the American taxpayer.
He flies into an airport somewhere in the Midwest, hops into a brand new $1.1 Million brand new black bus (paid for by you and I) for a “bus tour” ‘around the Midwest.’ After an hour or so, Obama is driven back to the airport for another flight, lands at another airport where another $1.1 Million brand new black bus is waiting for him… and repeats all that until his Midwest bus‘tour’ is done ... and leaves on a 12 day vacation to Martha's Vineyard.......to REST UP from this campaign bus tour.
Note that those brand new shiny black buses ARE NOT DRIVEN to the location where they meet Obama. Those buses are loaded up on one or more C-17s. Then, they are flown to the destination ahead of AirForce-1.
This is REPEATED FOR EVERY CAMPAIGN STOP.
On this 'bus tour', the Prez will lecture the 'little people' on how they need to live within their means and cut-back! Remember when very recently Obama told that family man to GO BUY A HYBRID VAN when he said he couldn’t afford to fill up his truck????

Barry owes the tax payers for his bus ride, it was a thinly veiled re-election campaign that he didn't have to pay for.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
