Bush Spends More on His Inauguration Than On Tsunami Disaster
 

so heres the breakdown - Spain is giving 68$ the largest donation with Canada second at 40$ - USA is a pitiful 35$ million when you take into account that Bush is spending 270$ MILLION on his Inauguration rather than the relief effort - thats a shitload more than his 2001 Inauguration which costed 40$ Million - which is still more than what America is giving today !!


Spain on Wednesday announced the largest single contribution - $68 million

Over a quarter of a billion dollars on his inauguration? How can this guy have been re-elected? I seriously cannot fathom what Bush supporters are thinking.

well in all fairness, that money was donated to him - yet worldwide USA is way behind many countries in donations.. hell.. canada not only gave 40$ million but its citizens raised another 20$ and forgave a 1 billion debt

go Canada !

what a waste of money that inauguration will be.
