Yeah, I'm sure a cow on the barbecue will go over big with Indians
Sheesh.
And have a Eid-a-fir Ramadan Break Fast Muslim celebration with Baby Back Ribs and Chicharrones.
And how about a big fest for Mormons topped off with endless cups of Maxwell House Coffee.
Or, could have Johnny Walker Red Label rolled out for the Amish Party. Etc. etc. etc.
Actually, I happen to LOVE Indian food---it's among my favorites. No, they won't likely have beef, but Tandoori (grilled) chicken and lamb will likely be served---and don't knock it until you've tried it (I assure you, you'd love it, too). As for Diwali, it's a beautiful festival, and we shouldn't knock that either. Everyone wears beautiful, colorful clothes, and the music is very cool. I think it's smart of Bush to host such an event, and very open-minded too.
Hillary...?
