Im watching the foodnetwork at the moment. There doing special on the presidents cooks (There is a reply later tonight). They said the president gets a bill for all his food. They also said that the reagan's where shocked when they got a bill for there dry cleaning and food.

They aren't billed for food served at State Dinners, only for food served in the family quarters.

Well, I wonder if that covers stolen dinnerware that walked out of the White House several years ago? Hehe!

So that's the reasons that Hill/Billy had so many State dinners.

So if Bush wants a Bologna sandwich (which i know he likes) at 9:00pm with some chips he gets a bill?

Wadu wannna bet the Clinton's are still being dunned for their food bills. I'd love to have seen Hillery's face the first time she saw her food bill.

Sheesh. You'd think the President would at least get a free lunch.

Oh, wait, there is no such thing.

Never mind.

Hardee har har. Wendy we get to hear the truth?

Lettuce ketchup on the facts.

He sesame that he seed the bill and frankly didn't know beans about having to pay for those dinners.

Wow! Five dollars! That's a lox for a bagel!

Then someone called the cods.
Pattie said, "This guy don't need a cod, he needs a sturgeon."
What a pickle!

Bush is really in the soup now, and needs to use his noodle to get out of it.

Laura was stewed over the whole mess.
Carl told them to quit wining.

Everone calmed down when they saw Miss Beasley start to liquor. She even goosed a reporter.

Did they get their just desserts? Well, the bill was to the tuna $500! I thought I might have to duck if things started flying. And you thought all the pork was in the federal budget!

Luckily George knows how to bring home the bacon. Condi Rice was stewed over the ribs that she took for not scheduling more state dinners. There is too much at steak here for the A-1 secretary to weenie out.

Heinz said that was the pot calling the kettle black, but that just took him out of the pan and into the fire.

Cheney has the juice to make it right. He's not going to waffle on this issue, or sugar coat the facts. He's going to pepper those responsible with questions that show he's worth his salt. These squids don't know what's coming!

Looks like I'd better cheez-it back to the Ritz. You never sausage a crisis as this!
