The Washington Times<\/a>‘ Jerry Seper writes that the Justice Dpeartment has been throwing lavish parties that they call “law enforcement conferences” for out-of-towners…and oh, you’re paying for them;<\/p>\n

…including spending $16 on each of 250 muffins served at an August 2009 legal conference in Washington, D.C., a report said Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Acting Inspector General Cynthia Schnedar, in an audit report that examined taxpayer expenditures incurred by the Justice Department at 10 of 1,832 conferences held during fiscal 2008 and 2009, said investigators also found that another conference featured a lunch that cost $76 per person and coffee costing more than $1 per ounce. Other costly items cited in the report included a $32-per-person snack break consisting of Cracker Jacks, popcorn and candy bars, $7.32 Beef Wellington hors d\u2019oeuvres, $10 cookies and $5 Swedish meatballs.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A $76 lunch? I was happy on the days that I could sneak into the Heritage Foundation and snag a ham’n cheese sandwich and a Sprite. WTF costs $76 that you could eat for lunch? Add to it the $32 snack break – that’s feeding an already obese lawyer-type a hundred bucks worth of chow. <\/p>\n

But the real problem is that them damn soldiers are actually using that free health care which we promised them.<\/p>\n

So this is going to be Holder’s legacy on this blog. I will delete any comment that mentions Holder without including a mention of the $16 cupcakes or the $7 horse dovers (what part of the horse does the dovers come from?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
