Being America's top civilian is expensive business.

President Obama's attendance at the 39th annual G8 Summit in Northern Ireland cost taxpayers $6,932,923.20, including expenses related to security detail, various staffers, and the first lady's sightseeing tour with her daughters, according to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) documents obtained by the nonprofit Judicial Watch.

A letter from the Department of the Air Force Headquarters Air Mobility Command notes shows that taxpayers fork over $206,337 every hour the world's most famous plane is in flight.

No one can say the president didn't get anything done. Check out some of the people he met with:
