Entourage may be a French word, but Obama owns it. He is in Brussels today, and he brought:
- 800 people with him
- A helicopter, dismantled and flown here by a C 17, then reassembled for use
- his own President-mobile
Also, they reserved a floor for him at St Luke's hospital and fully stocked it with meds and his own medical staff just in case. Finally, they cordoned off a few square klicks of the city for cars for 5 hours, so he won't have to face any of our traffic (which I assure you constitutes a threat in itself).
Due to the above, most of my colleagues worked from home today, and I watched Terminator SCC all day in all its Glaury.
If American national pride needs a boost, let me give it to you here: When your boss visits the EU parliament, he practically shuts down a city of 2 million. By contrast, when the President of Slovenia visits, he takes the train, and earns his fare by carrying my bags.

frankly, GS, the president of the US is far more important than the president of slovenia.
we already knew that.

interesting insight though. wonder if there's any variation between presidential administrations

That depends what you mean by 'far'.

Yeah this really is a shitload of bling. As far as I know, Reagan traveled with less than a twentieth of this, but who knows? In the cloak and dagger days of the Cold War there was probably an army of CIA people in any crowd...
-
I think we pay attention to it a lot more than we did in Reagan's day.

Ok, now say that with a gif.

Couldn't you at least do THAT with a gif? I hope you are not losing your touch.
-
i mean that President Obama is more important than the country of slovenia or whatever podunk little thing you were talking about.
-
that is such a countryist thing to say. haven't you heard that all countries are equal. this is the 21st century, get with the times

no, i really haven't heard that, america is pretty much the most important country.
-
slovenia, more like sloweenia
-
no, i really haven't heard that, america is pretty much the most impotent country.
Fixed on behalf of Crimea

This is exactly the kind of countryist comment that rallies so much support for Putin.

Seems like a lot of work to protect that guy.

Imagine how often they check for bombs. They probably check the roads Obama will be traveling on before he's driving over them with some kind of bomb detecting truck or something.
Imagine how paranoid his security teams are.

they do, also one of their cars has a jammer system in it breaking all wireless stuff in case of IEDs
-
interrupting people's wifi, that's like shooting the dog, going too far

maybe you shouldn't live in the way of AMERICA

They are probably the guys behind legalizing weed. Probably explains why there are 800 of them too.

I just peed a little.

either go america's way, or get out of america's way, THERE AIN'T NO BRAKES ON THIS RAPETRAIN
