Did the Clinton WH have 'special guest' bedrooms with Zebra skin rugs and Cheetah sheets?

Here's hoping his houseguests are better-behaved.

What a great story.
Certainly a lot better way to spend lots of money than, say, Soros, has chosen.
Great house.

Chances are they will only use about 1/5 of the house and the rest will just be wasted space.

I'm jealous...I feel like I live in a vienna sausage can!

How about going for it and actually show us some pictures of it?

Don't know about the animal print stuff, but I'm pretty sure there was a little metal box next to the bed with a coin slot in it.

"Then he could lease it out to Movie companies that want to do realistic white house scenes. :)"

Interior shots would need movable walls for camera angles and lighting, high ceilings for boom mikes and such - easier to do it with a set.

I remember driving past there when they were building this a few years ago. I thought to myself, "What kind of person would build such a thing?" Now I know.

The exterior's cool but I'm not overly thrilled by their interior. Isn't there one in Texas too?

Does the Oval Office come complete with the little dark hallway of Clinton fame?

Wow, that place should be on "Cribs". I could live there! Of course, it's not up to the standards I'm used to.

I live about 2 miles away. It is quite impressive. Lots of McMansions in the area though.

to raise money for the independent International Church of God, a Christian church that ministers to Muslims converting to Christianity.

Well, this place just became a target. They might have been better off without this reference.

Can you imagine the heating and electric bills? Be grateful for the sausage can--easier to heat and clean! Of course, if you could afford a house like his, who cares about housework?
