HELLO OBAMA. The presidential motorcade just went by my house on I-5 on his way to the University of Washington and it sounded like we were under attack. Multiple helicopters circling in very tight circles over and over and over. So Loud!
Taxpayer dollars at work. I guess he's stumping for some candidates up there.

Yeah, Senator Patty Murray. They actually just had a thing on the news about who pays for the presidential visits and that since this is a Democrat stump visit it's payed for 100% by DNC. If it were an official visit then it'd come out of the White House travel office budget. Interesting.

Bush I and Bush II got the same security, as did Clinton. nothing unusual for the POTUS.

That's awesome, veo. I didn't realize that. I prefer not to pay for my president to campaign for anyone. I wonder if it's really 100% though.
