Over twenty billion dollars went "missing" in Iraq, are you seriously worried about the Whitehouse menu?

Well look at the bright side...GW there just might have learned something about people with etiquette, class, eloquence and dignity that someone with grace and style, like the Queen possesses. Compare that to someone who is always tripping over their own tongue (and brain)!!!! It's never more clearer than when side by side like that.
That vision alone for the American public, (and world) was worth the expense...but that lesson is like sand pouring through the sieve of Bush's brain.....wasted money?? Well that seems to be a specialty of the American government.
Don't you have a FREEDOM OF INFORMATION BUREAU or something of to that effect? Get on the horn and call your Senator's office and ask them.
Why are you so worried about a this affair when all kinds of money are spent on "vacations" for GW et al and no one seems to question that...entertaining dignitaries is part of any government's budget...why aren't you questioning where 20 BILLION spent on this war was spent? You could have solved world hunger, cured cancer and stopped global warming with those funds not to mention created a new health care system and education system for the entire world on that budget alone.
Priorities, priorities.

I'd rather spend our tax dollars on a pricey state dinner for a Queen then a war in Iraq.

Probably less than what the British tax payers paid for the policing and food during Bush's visit to the UK, at the end of the day it all evens out and does not really effect your little tax cents that you pay ! so basically a rather retarded post, well done you get the muppet of the day award.
DebraD "Millions in term of money and a complete lack of class on the part of George Bush to suck up to the Queen during a time that we have soldiers dying in Iraq. " what on earth does this mean, explain how its millions in term of money ? and according to you its a lack of class to be a gracious host when the queen who is visiting a queen who's servicemen are also in Iraq and Britian has lost 148 in Iraq compare that to the size of troops there that is sizeable. You get the second award for muppet of the day.

Agree with you totally. Thou all do it--it seems Republicans do the better hobnobbing.
