A lot of preparing had gone into the trip. Conway Elementary teachers had been planning the trip for months, each child paid $20 for a seat on the chartered bus, and names were submitted to the White House for clearance.

And they couldn't take the time to plan to be a half-hour early?

DC traffic can gridlock anytime for no apparent reason. Whe I lived there you could be bumper to bumper for three hours at midnight, and fly through rush hour the next day.

And they couldn't take the time to plan to be a half-hour early?

Yep.

And what the heck, they're 5-year-olds. All they had to do is announce that instead of the White House, they were going to Chucky Cheese. No more disappointment.

Have YOU ever tried to entertain 100 five year old children for 3 minutes, let alone a half-hour?

The buses left with time to spare, but there were uncontrollable delays enroute.

Sheesh!

This certainly does show the real humanity and understanding of the empty suit in the White House, doesn’t it?
