Shock on White house as Obama's one-night stay in Brussels cost a whopping $2.9 MILLION (N476,000,000)

Mouths on Capitol Hill were agape Friday as MailOnline told congressional staffers that President Barack Obama's recent one-night stay in Brussels cost taxpayers more than $2.9 million thats N476,000,000 in Nigeria – and that's just for hotel space and rental vehicles.
The amount covered Obama's March 25-26 stay in Belgium's capital, plus two weeks of work by his advance team before the president participated in a NATO and EU summit and a tour of the Flanders Field Cemetery.
The Weekly Standard first reported on a single requisition for lodging in Brussels at a hotel called 'The Hotel,' costing an estimated $1.52 million.

According to MailOnline there was an additional two requisitions found, covering more than $396,000 at a Crowne Plaza hotel and $1.05 million in expenses for 'vehicle rentals.'

The cars were requisitioned from Modern Car, a Brussels company that specializes in luxury limousines.
'Are you kidding me?' asked a senior aide to one Republican member of the House Appropriations Committee. 'The president is going to have to get used to flying commercial some day. I bet taxpayers wish that cay came sooner.'
'Wow, that seems disgusting, doesn't it?' said a GOP committee staffer elsewhere on Capitol Hill. 'I know we need to protect the president, but at some point you have to assume we spent a fraction as much to shuttle JFK around and protect him.'
'And why do nearly 1,000 people have to go on the trip? Are there really that many Secret Service agents and clipboard-holders? This is a testament to why government needs to shrink down and start treating taxpayers with respect.'
This is actually funny.
