The cost of these facilities can be substantial. According to the

As you can see, it cost the taxpayer's more for Bush's legacy, than for

Not so fast. This site shows the cost of Clintons library to be $165
million. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6521909/

Regardless, you can see that public funds often go in to pay for political
events and structures. So why are your shorts in a knot over the cost of
security for today's inauguration?

I said it before, but perhaps it just didn't hit your brain. Do you
recall when Bush was on the mat for not pledging enough to the Tsunami
victims? HE said that the public should donate, not the government. IF
he were a man of honor, he would now say to those donating, instead of
$40 million dollars being spent to honor ME, please send that money to
the victims. But, alas, he didn't do that, because he, and his
followers, see him as larger than life. Add to that the HUGE deficit
he's rung up in the name of BushCo War, Inc., and one could only come
to the conclusion that he doesn't give a damned about anybody but
himself and his mega-rich cronies.

don't you grow up, Paul? At least debate like an adult. We all know
that you are pathetic, and can't keep a wife, nor raise a kid without
help from alt.support.divorce, and alt.support.single-parent. With all
of your petty, childish name calling, one could easily think that you
have realized that you are a loser, and are trying to bolster your
self-esteem. Too bad it isn't working, you still come off looking
childish and pathetic.

And how is this relevant to the cost of his 4th inauguration? It was
wartime, this is wartime... at least, the Bush Administration often
proclaims it to be.



The 17 mil from DC is from federal dollars.

Really? Are you sure?


The 40 mil is from private contributions

Actually, it isn't. It is wholly funded by your tax dollars, and mine.
The Republican Party *hopes* to raise private donations to offset a
large percent of this expense, but they don't have the money in hand yet
and don't claim to.

Of course, when you've spent $80 million investigating a blow job, maybe
$40 mill for a coronation is just chickenfeed.

Sorry for losing it with you but discussing things with you is like talking
to a brick wall sometimes.

Let me try again, this time with questions:

Now where did this $40 million figure come from? I thought you were upset
about the $17 million.

What was the cost of the Clinton inaugurations? How much public and private
money? Were there not disaster relief funds then that the money could have
gone to?

And just how much money has the US given and pledged to the Tsunami victims?
How much in private donations?

I really don't understand why this inauguration is bother you like it is.
Get over it already.

I am giving him the benefit of the doubt on this one. I am just trying to
figure out where he is coming from and why he is upset over the inauguration
costs. I just don't want him changing the target every post he makes to
this thread.
