3. Maybe it's for a "golden parachute"
So Nero can sing "I got the golden tiiiickeeeeet" when it's time for him to board Marine One when he resigns in disgrace.

6. The haves and have-mores will eat well...
But don't be jealous, or angry. That's a populist war. We should be thankful-THANKFUL- that America's a land where someone can pay $100k to eat and listen to some jackass, while how many children go to bed hungry tonight.

13. Ahnie's upset that it takes attention and $ away from his campaign
for his initiatives on the CA November ballot, according to published reports. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/21/AR2005102100283_pf.html

Also, one surmises Ahnie apparently doesn't want to be seen to be in the same room as Bush right before the election (and possible indictments). Both their approval ratings are in the toilet, last I looked.

And of course when Bush has his $100K/plate fundraisers people know he's just appealing to his base: "the have and have mores." Whereas when Ahnie has his $100K/plate to sit at the table with him, he's just a man of the "peepul." LMAO.

14. Pete Wilson the Gropenfuher's Rove was at the Bush speech today
so i think this story may be just some hooey--so it won't make the democrats and independents even more pissed off. Gropenfuher is trying to make it look like he doesn't want anything to do with Bush.
