StumbleLetter: Inaugural was a party for the rich
Thursday, Jan. 27, 2005 | 8:50 a.m.
Remember Bill Clinton's first inauguration, and the photo of him playing the saxophone at one of the inaugural balls? To me, that simple act showed that he was a true man of the people, an accessible, down-to-Earth leader who truly represented every American.
This time, we had George W. Bush's overblown, overpriced debacle with the rich and privileged tiara-wearing crowd. Well, at least it showed who he represents.
