The enormity of Bush's pettiness

[dynasaw]

"In this, the penultimate week of the Bush Years, we learned that the only thing there wasn't enough room for at Blair House was the enormity of Bush's pettiness. It turns out there was plenty of room to accommodate the Obama family in time for the kids to start school. Scrambling to make things look good after snubbing the Obamas, Bush had hastily invited former Australian Prime Minister John Howard to toss another shrimp on the Blair House barbie, leaving the Obamas -- and their sizable security detail -- to check into the Hay Adams. At taxpayer expense. Also staying true to his character until the bitter end was Dick Cheney who this week asserted, "I don't believe we violated anybody's civil liberties."

1. Blair House has 119 rooms and 35 bathrooms....

John Howard must have brought a lot of luggage with him.

2. this snub should have gotten greater coverage--just one more example of bush's complete lack

of class, character, sense or decency.

3. Has anyone estimated the cost of this decision? n/t
