Inauguration “Pilgrimage” Meets Bailout Standards

The Mayor and Governors asked and of course President Bush obliged … making the inauguration eligible for Federal disaster relief funds because it expects the Obama crowd to be too big and too expensive. How big? Think Mecca … yup CNN compares it to a religious pilgrimage. Oh man … I think I can handle the “Dear Obama” story more than this. Mecca? Can Lourdes be far behind?
