Three daze to the In-AWFUL-guration

Well, sorry for the hiatus-with the week end and the celebration of the late great Dr. Reverend Martin Luther King Junior's birthday (his real birthday is January 15th--the same as my dearly departed father) I was unable to blog.

Nevertheless--I read Liz Smith's column this week end and even Liz sees this In-Awful-guration's expense as wrong. She says that the $40 million or more pricetag would be better spent on body armor for our troops that Mr. Bush sent to Iraq or perhaps to add that money to social security???

I could not agree more. This excessive expenditure is OBSCENE!!! What has changed? Mr. Bush is still in office. We are not installing anyone new. What is the reason to party? Even if this were a new president coming in, the pricetag for all of these insipid in-awful-gural balls is wrong. For an incumbent to waste this huge amount of tax payer money for self aggrandizement is obscene!!

Well- at this point in time the gods and goddesses of weather seek to rain or snow on this parade. Let's see what happens.
