White House China

Gaza is in flames, the economy is a mess, Congress is confused, and Laura Bush wants to leave behind $485,000.00 worth of new china in the White House. Okay, tax dollars did not pay for the dishes, some private foundation put the funding together, but come on. Aren't there better things a half million dollars can be spent on?

I am really disappointed in Laura. I always believed she was the smart one in that couple and to do this makes me wonder. Schools are firing teachers and cutting out programs. Education is suppose to be her passion, so why not get funds to help schools, especially schools in inner cities that are desperate for additional funding?

Its true I have never been to a State Dinner, and I probably never will get to one, but aren't there some nice inexpensive dishes people can eat off of? (Dixie Paper plates come to mind.)

The Bush legacy just gets worse and worse.

Let's see what else Bush can do in the next two weeks to make us shudder even more.
