MS: Lott -- Bush gift

As the official gift from the American people to W. at the inaguration is announced. How about spend that $ and the other $40 million for the inaguration on some armor for a hummer or some medicine for AIDS stricken Africa, tsunami victims...or hit Lott at home for the 19.9% (highest in the nation) of the state of Mississippi living in poverty, how about some help for them?

"Senator Trent Lott and the members of the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies (JCCIC) will present to the President and Vice President the American people's official gift in honor of their Inauguration. The gifts, a set of priceless, one-of-a-kind cut crystal hurricane lamps, were commissioned by the JCCIC and will be presented on behalf of the nation to the President and Vice President at the Inaugural Luncheon following the swearing in ceremony at the U.S. Capitol."
