> The American people are very happy. They need a good party.

It is astonishing that you would criticize Palin for her minimalist wardrobe spending yet not complain about a $100 Million bash.


I can't help it. I am partisan.

Suppose $50M of that $100M were committed to helping the homeless in the DC area, who are freezing to death on every sewer grate in the city?

I understood the cost to be $45 million:

"The Presidential Inaugural Committee, which is responsible for the events surrounding the actual ceremony, expects that its budget will run about $45 million, but could edge slightly higher, according to Linda Douglass, spokeswoman for the group."

Don't you really think that would be a better use of the funds?

Of course, this kind of hypocrisy on the parts of liberals is what we've come to expect. Liberals want to TALK about helping the homeless, but when given a chance to do so, shit no, we're not giving up a party to help those nasty people.


I see. You guys can have inaugural parties but we can't. Do you ever get tired of whining?

How dare you people. Really.

We dare because we won the election.
