Today's politics...

I just read that George Bush's inauguration is going to cost north of $40M excluding cost of security. Didn't he have one of those four years ago? Isn't that like having a big wedding ceremony for your second marriage? And what actually happens at an inauguration? It's just some big party and parade and schmoozing dinners for special interest groups? This government is certainly good at spending with a war and social security overhaul underfinanced by lower taxes. I can think of several hundred better uses for that money.

How about having a sleepover at the White House, ordering in some takeout and setting off a few bottlerockets? Jeez.
