Recession? What recession? The Bushes Buy Fine China for almost 1/2 a mil.

People are pissed off that a private foundation has paid for a new set of dinnerware for the White House? Wow. Get a grip you pansies.

I wonder how much it costs to rent out a 9 million dollar beachfront home in Hawaii for 12 days. Actually would like to know.

Rentals in the Lanikai neighborhood range anywhere between $450-$1000 a night. Multiply that by 12 nights and it's still nowhere near what the china cost. I've stayed there with my family many times.

Lots of families prefer renting out homes because the Waikiki hotels tend to be twice the cost.

Certainly not as much as it cost to buy that china.

And if you think people should get over the china, then maybe you shouldn't be so concerned with how much it cost to rent that house.

Yeah, I pretty much feel the same way. The recession won't impact everyone, anyway.
