The carping about this makes me sick I expect it from the DBM but not here. Bush has had very few state dinners.

I don't fault President Bush. But you have to admit, if there is a world wide depression upon us (as we are being told) this opens itself to criticism. Not only in our country, but others.

Like I said upthread, the cost of the campaigns and upcoming cost of the inaugration are out of line with the current economic crisis.
