No Room At The Inn

For the Messiah, who’s informed Blair House is booked, he can’t start edging his way in early. Smart move on the Bush White House’s part.

Undoubtedly there are events planned. More to the point, the “one president at a time” talk not withstanding, the guy already has been accepted as president-without-portfolio … or responsibility … and the last thing we need is dueling white houses, press conference on the steps across the street. Yah, he’s annointed but he isn’t inaugurated yet. There must be furnished rooms somewhere in DC, maybe one of the adoring masses of donors has a loft, so Michelle and the kids can get in and start the school year.

NYT’s Caucus notes that what events and personages have been booked into Blair House for January is not yet public. That could make interesting reading.

I’m voting a big end-of-era drinkup for all of Dick Cheney’s hunting buddies;

Last neo-con hurrah; 

Open-house for anyone who was never against the Iraq War after they were for it, or before they were for it again (”I Don’t Give A Damn About The WMD” or “I Heart Bush” t-shirt mandatory for admittance. Code Pink flashing protests encouraged but please no geriatrics this time;

Wild bash for war-wounded vets, chandelier-swinging encouraged;

“Free Arabs” dance party, all Arabs freed by Bush invited;

“Loyal” Jirga for all Afghans who hate the Taliban;

Al Qaeda Look-Alike Nite … show up as your favorite jihadi or just throw on a orange jumpsuit and a bag over your head.

One event a night till Jan. 15, 2009, the five-days-ahead-of-time when not-yet presidents … even those delivered unto us from on high, verily, as saviors … traditionally get to take up residence.

   Nothing as clever or funny and what Jules can craft. Just a simple observation: This PE is just a presumptuous jerk, from the “seal” to the “office of the PE” to this stunt. A total jerk.

   Is that possible? I don’t think that’s possible.

   How about…Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rummy, Feith, Bolten, Tommy, Petraeus and all the guns, girls and bourbon they can carry. Special guests, Norman Podhoretz and Irving Kristol.

   No reason the festivities have to stop just because the Obamas move in on the 15th. Just picture all the revelers parading past Obama’s lecturn on the steps…..

   Guy’s been a Senator for two years and still doesn’t have a place to stay in DC?
