Best line:

a travel agent, said that more than $31,000 was spent on a private plane for Cher, her entourage and the band Sugar Ray. Muhammad Ali was also transported in a smaller plane, which cost about $24,750.

But the organizers of the gala did economize in one way, Mr. Krausen said; they decided against hiring a bigger and more expensive plane that could also have accommodated Rosa Parks, the civil rights figure. She did not attend

Rosa Parks wasn't that big...

This whole deal was the next step in the 1994 Clinton/Marx retroactive tax increase.

Once they got away with THAT, they moved on to retroactive extortion--they must have taken lessons from Jesse and Al and Arafat--or VICE VERSA....

I bet that Cher and Hillary sat in the front of the plane, Rosa Parks sat in the back!

This is the best of the worst. . .wish it would get a little more play. Seem Drudge could have picked up on this; but maybe he likes Cher (?)

I can understand; in a way. . .Ali's needing, perhaps. . .easier transport; but the rest of the entertainment sludge; no way.

Meantime, not a Democrat there, missed Rosa.

We have known for a long time that 'charity' in Hollywood is not about giving; but rather recieving. And boy, that 'charity PR, goes a long way' to enriching their pockets while enhancing their image as compassionate Liberals.

Liberals are as authentic as their last face-lift.

The lis would have made her sit in the back of the plane.

So, are you saying they were going to put Ms. Parks at the back of the plane? Hmmm.
