"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
For the first, and last, time in my life I actually feel sorry for Bill. Too bad she didn't make the Marines. Sniper school right out of boot, forget advanced, she's already passed that. Scary, berry berry scary.
This IS the President who flew a pizza chef in for dinner shortly after signing that stimulus package. The ceremonial head of Russia gets hamburgers and this guy gets... Let me get out that list of biggest creditors again.:)
You are assuming that they don't eat like this on a regular basis. NatGeo did a special on that big presidential plane thingy right after he was sworn in. At the very end of that special he was shown listing his food preferences to the people on board. Don't doubt it. $100 a pound beef anyone?
someone needs oil of olay. as far any comment on the dinner - i didn't think the menu itself was that extravagant (for a state dinner) but the wine listed at $199is a good value for that wine. it actually goes for almost $300 for the .750ml and over $600 for the 1.5ml better be damned good for that price. i have had excellent wines for $25 750ml
Is it possible that Hillary was just trying a mind trick on the dictator? 'You will forgive all the debt'. Either that or she's laughing, in the evil way that the Clintons' specialize in, and saying, 'Suckers! You're paying for all this!'
The menu was amazing. But dear God, that's alot of food. I like eating like the next person, but.... Then again, except for the wine, that could be the special at TGIFridays or Applebees. Of course, being a state dinner you can't call onion rings onion rings. They've got to be disguised as butter-milk crip onions. But then everything and everyone was in disguise.

ReplyDeleteThat was quite some menu to, and for China where they are having problems in their Supermarkets, regarding lack of food.
