2. Maybe Poppy charged it all to the Carlyle Group expense account?
Or just had Dunkin Donuts cater the thing?

7. The Navy runs the 'White House Mess' and officers pay for their food even at sea, so...
I assume GWB is picking up the tab.

8. Damn the news must be slow today
I walked by one of the TV's at work, not only were they discussing the standing order of the Presidents (the bushes flanking Obama), they went into that Obama and the Bushes had blue ties on that were almost the same color and that Bill and Jimmy had red ties on. I think it was on CNN. I'm so glad that the news orgs are discussing important matters. :eyes:
