Heck. Just one or two of Empress Hazel O'Leary's trips to Africa with her HUGE retinue probably cost the taxpayers as much as this trip to the the Lincoln.

Speaking of ex Energy Empress O'Leary, ex-Sec Def "The Prince" Cohen, and the "Travelers" Billy and Hill, we can't ignore current bwanas with cap B -- one being Secretray of the Treasury Paul O'Neill -- and his fab trip Africa-way, with abso fab mega star U2's Bono!

'Ere's what mega star Bono told CNN afterwards:

This is what America is about. You read the Constitution, it is a poetic thing, standing with the weak and oppressed and guarding each man's sacred honor, or whatever the phrase is.

A real Constitutional EXPERT -- fab mega star, world hunger activist, and Constitutional expert, all rolled into one!

A wonderful voyage of Compassion into Africa!

I forget, did they visit Zimbawe? Does any one remember? Just asking...
