1. Which is which?

I mean on the Hydracare-pipes pictures of the Bushies? ;-)

2. Appropriate costumes

Barbara Jr is dressed as a "fallen angel", and Jenna looks like something out of the 1920's, the era right before her great grandaddy and his friends caused the Great Depression.

Two great representations of the Bush Crime Family right there.

3. It's fairly obvious they need more gay friends

Not a great look.

4. OMG the blond looks just like her mother..mouth and all n/t

5. Seems to be a theme.. these black/ white themed costume parties.

It seems rather idiotic to me... I know there's a lot of black associated with Halloween.. but its like they want people to dress in tuxes and black dresses and paint their faces... rather uninspiring theme these richey-rich types have come up with this year.

We have one of these richey-rich black/ white ball themes in our area.. $250-and up for tickets.

6. TRUMAN CAPOTE’S ICONIC & BITCHY BLACK AND WHITE BALL OF 1966

No stranger to celebrity, Capote was already a fixture in New York City’s elite social circles, and knew very well how to play the game. A masterful manipulator of self-promotion, he knew that this was much more than just a celebration—it had the potential to be a major publicity opportunity for “In Cold Blood”, and the ultimate act of self-aggrandizement.

The task before Capote now was no easy one. How could he devise the perfect, titillating, gimmick for the party he planned to hold for himself? One that would create a spectacle like none ever seen before, that would hold both the media and fans breathless? Well, the answer was pure genius.

Capote decided to make it the most posh event, not just of the year, but also of the decade, and maybe even the century. He held it at New York City’s Plaza Hotel — which In Capote’s mind was the only decent ballroom left in the city. Attendance would be limited to 540, so it quickly became the most coveted invitation on every major celebrity’s wish list. Capote knew he was in control, and would often taunt the potential guests with, “Well maybe you’ll be invited, and maybe you won’t.”
