A big fat lump of money has been spent on a bunch of big fat lump 
of lumpy fat people in black ties and dresses that don't quite fit
right.



"What's HER problem now?" you might ask yourself. For starters, I can
think of at least five things that can be done with the more than 40
million bucks that was used for the Presidential Inaugural Ball.:

1) More funding for educating our young'ins

2) More relief aid sent to both South Asian tsunami victims and a

couple of bucks to the mudslide victims in La Conchita, as well as the nice

folks
in the part of this state that FRIGGIN' FEEDS DAMNED NEARLY THE ENTIRE
WESTERN SIDE OF THE UNITED STATES (the central and northern parts of
California)

3) Better equipment for our military personnel (I
hear that their bullet-proof vests aren't as 'bullet-proof' as they
need to be).


4) Money could be split up 50 ways and sent to each state for
things like agriculture, debt relief, underwater basket-weaving
classes...

5) Let us not forget about those deemed 'lesser' by
society... homeless children can probably use about 40 million. 40
million can buy a LOT of hot meals, lots of shoes at a big fat blue
store with a yellow bouncy guy for a spokesperson, a lot of jackets at
that place where a certain imprisoned diva still peddles her wares.

The
money that was spent on the presidential ball, in my opinion, was a
huge waste of money. I am completely disappointed with these people who
call themselves leaders. It is a stinging, biting slap to the face and
a kick in the balls that this money that could have funded lots of
useful things was spent on a bunch of selfish, useless individuals who
I am sure couldn't give a rat's ass about our failing education system,
our ever growing homeless problem, and the fact that Mother Earth is
having the worst case of PMS that she has had in a long, long time. Our
jobs are being outsourced, and our "twenty-somethings" went from making
the grade so that they can make themselves a decent life to making
their way long enough so as to not get kicked out of their parents'
place for one more month.

In light of all the things that
are happening in the world today, the very last thing that this
president needed to do was throw a big fat party. What he needed to do
was get sworn in, eat a nice, intimate dinner with friends, and then
get his silly ass on Air Force One to fly his ass to the tsunami
victims, to the mudslide areas. What he needed and should have done was
STOP chasing terrorists and start doing stuff for the American people.
Instead, he chose to feed people who can afford to feed themselves,
chose to drink with people who tell him what he thinks he wants to
hear. He chose, instead, to allow us to grow ever more mistrusting of
an administration whose glory days came and went within the time span
of one presidential term. It took him four years to spend countless
billions on things that we have nothing to account for it other than
grieving families of young lives taken too soon in a war that was
nothing more than one man's way of showing the world that indeed he and
his band of roving marauders can seriously kick the living crap out of
a bunch of people who hated us already, and now they hate us even more.


Good goin', Mr. President!

Thank you, George, for
fracturing my safety even more. Thank you for pissing off a bunch of
people whose mission in life is not to prove that they know how to use
a gun but that they will fight to the death in order to let you know
just exactly how faithful they are to their God, to their religion.
Thank you, George, for eating all that sumptuous food and drinking all
that expensive champagne, and thanks, most of all, for smiling with
that stupid smile as you keep in your mind the thoughts of how you will
yet again endanger the lives of people whom you claim to have nothing
more than their best interests at heart. I'm sure that in some weird
and crazy place in the afterlife, Marie Antoinette is smiling largely
at you right now.

Call me crazy, insane, demented...hehe, but
I think that there are a lot of things that this money that paid for
this big fat party could have been used for. While the Washington fat
cats were "gettin' jiggy wit' it", people all over the world were
wondering what the hell was going to happen next. They were wondering
where they would get their next meal, where they would lay their heads
to sleep, what Mother Nature was going to do next. I know that I will
be getting more earthquake insurance, more flood insurance, because I
know that eventually we are going to have one hell of an earthquake,
and that I cannot depend on this administration to give a crap about my
losses when it happens.

I think that out of all the stupid
things that were done by this particular administration, this was by
far the winner of the "Greedy Selfish Asshole" award.

This guy wasn't even gonna do the "let them eat cake" thing for any of us. Nope.
He
would be happier standing there in front of those hungry and homeless
kids, those tsunami victims, those people in La Conchita, Devore,
Malibu, Topanga Canyon, all over the place, feasting on his cake while
ignoring their need.
