D.C. Getting Burned for Bush's Party (washingtonpost.com)
D.C. Getting Burned for Bush's Party (washingtonpost.com)
I'll just quote a small piece:
"Let's see if I've got this straight: The Bush White House is planning to hold the most expensive presidential inauguration in U.S. history, in the midst of a war in Iraq and in the aftermath of a disaster that has the world in mourning, and the administration wants the District to help pay for the spectacle -- by diverting federal money from the city's homeland security budget, no less.
Surely, the Bush administration couldn't be that thoughtless. Could it?"
I think that sums it up.

This left me rather speechless, and sad.

A $40 MILLION party...
Too bad our leadership is not as selfless as it used to be...
"President Franklin Roosevelt, who celebrated his trimmed-down 1945 inaugural with cold chicken salad and pound cake."
I wonder how bad the government will have to get before the people fight back?
