In his Thanksgiving Day proclamation, Bush praised those who helped the needy: “By seeking out those who are hurting and by lending a hand, Americans touch the lives of their fellow citizens and help make our Nation and the world a better place.” But that was then.

Is it actually appropriate in a democratic republic to have a $40 million inauguration? And does that include the accessories?:
