President Bush appeared today at a fundraiser in Bellevue, WA:

It cost $1,000 per person to get in. If you wanted a photo with him, it cost $10,000. (This was to raise funds for Dave Reichert and the Washington Republican Party.)
$10,000 for a picture with Bush??? This guy's the President of the United States. It should cost ZERO to have your picture taken with him. (Never mind that most of us wouldn't WANT a picture with him now - although I have video tape of myself shaking hands with him back in 2000.)
You know how you got in to see President Lincoln? You walked in the White House front door during business hours. Anyone could go in and talk to him - at the White House. My, things have come a long way, haven't they?

I would if I could wear exactly what I want to wear.
I would. It would be worth it. But there is no way they'd let me.

Maybe this belongs in the thread about photo software.

Speaking of Mr. Lincoln, it was the Clinton White House that sold nights in the Lincoln Bedroom and treated the White House like a cheap motel...in more ways than one.

Yeah, Clinton continued a sleazy fundraising trend started during the Reagan administration and extended during the second Bush administration. But, let's be sure not to mention any of the Republicans and just Clinton - not that we're a big partisan or anything...

$1.298 would be all I would spend for a DUHbya pic. Maybe you could get $3 on Ebay for it.
I'd rather pay $10,000 for a picture of Herb at the entrance of the ACLU building in Washington D.C. shaking hands with the NAACP's President while holding up his NAMBLA card.

"...a picture of Herb at the entrance of the ACLU building in Washington D.C. shaking hands with the NAACP's President while holding up his NAMBLA card..."
I'd be happy to shake hands with the NAACP's President.
Your problem is in confusing the defense of dastardly child molesters as somehow connected to a race issue. It's not.

I would pay 10 Grand for a photo with our 37th President....but I'm a tad late on that one.

$1.298 is way to much for me! 10 grand Herb, you've got to be kidding....
It's DUHbya!!!!

I'd mortgage everything for a photo with Lincoln.

Pssssst, Trixter.
37th President was Nixon!

With or without the stove top??

Mmm, Stove Top! Their corn bread stuffing my favorite - and only takes five minutes to microwave!

Stuffing is good....
Lincoln #16
Nixon #37
DUHbya #43
And my questions stands for Herb...
With or without the stove top??

It wouldn't matter.
I'd just want to shake his hand and say "I love you, man."
