43. Fumigation must take place BEFORE moving in.
Also the debugging should be done prior to moving in.

7. Strip the building to its skeleton
in the search for listening devices and booby traps.
Fumigate indeed.
and, finally, the most potent exorcism available.

26. you beat me to the exorcism comment...
But I'd recommend a thorough search for bugs, listening devices, cameras, any type of covert surveillance that might have been "inadvertently left behind." Oopsie...

I'd wonder about long-range, not-on-the-premises listening and visual stuff too..any 'secret bunkers' around? :tinfoilhat:

Then fumigate everything...including the secret bunkers.
They're there.:tinfoilhat::tinfoilhat::tinfoilhat:

18. Restore the White House tours. Clinton never had trouble working through them.
Bush cancelled them on a weak excuse--that Nahn Wun Wun changed ever-thang. No one was gonna hide a jetliner under their tee shirt. How hard is it to make people put their shit in a locker, and stroll through a detector? This bullshit of only allowing the tours for the elites is just crappy. Know a GOP congressman? Have a military ID card? You're IN! Come from the heartland to show your kids where the seat of government is? Fuck YOU!

Time to go back to the first come, first serve routine, and run the tours every day, with extended hours when the President is away at Camp David or elsewhere.

22. I Plead Ignorance. I Didn't Know They Stopped The Tours
I went on a WH tour once, about 30 years ago. I'll never forget it.

30. It's one of the reasons why they do those fucking "Barney" Xmas fiascos
The biggest chunk of the tourist load was when the WH was decorated for the holidays. Now, they decorate it, and no one gets to see it save the odd dignitaries, the "elite" tours of favored donors, wounded service personnel and their families, and the ones who got passes from their reps. It used to be "full speed ahead" during those times, with tours whipping through to see the decorated rooms one after the next.

That's the SOLE reasoning behind the stupid Barney business, because people bitched that their tax dollars were going to decorate 'their house' that they couldn't even see...it's disgraceful. One thing ya gotta hand to Clinton, he'd tell them to keep the tours coming, especially during the summer when there was huge demand--he'd let them run them two hours or more after the normal ending hour--he INSISTED that they do it, that no one be turned away.

Helluva fellah...actually believed it was the People's House...such a concept.

19. Dems aren't going to the White House...
Chuck Hagel will be elected.

I know a lot of serious Dem donors who are watching to see what Hagel does.

Remember, you saw it here first.

He's going to get it from Paul and Hagel badly. Republican base doesn't like him as it is.

25. Wow! What an interesting palette.
I don't know what it is they are gonna do, but I think the first thing, or very nearly the first, I'd like them to do is resurrect, it super giant size, the message an outgoing Clinton staffer left for the bfee reincarnation.

It read, "Jail to the thief."

It should become the motto, not a repeat of the sellout that the Dawg pulled when he arrived--that of dismissing the accumulated corruption and criminal wrongdoing in the name of comity and cooperation.

32. After all of the above,
call a priest, a Navajo medicine man, a feng shui artist, a Buddhist monk, etc. and have 'em purify the place. More than one go-round will prolly be necessary.
