Almost* April In de Paris 
One president was shot wearing a suit he tailored, and another was buried in one. Now Georges de Paris feels it’s time for Barack Obama to get shovel ready too.
Ronald Reagan almost died in a de Paris suit, and Gerald Ford, formerly “our most athletic President”
rode his last mile wearing one.
The legendary Washington tailor and renowned hair farmer tells Vanity Fair Obama is letting down the team wearing casual clothing, and doesn’t much care for his fancy clothes neither.
““The suits President Obama has is not quality.”
A new chapter in Tony Blair’s Bush’s Poodle career is revealed, as de Paris claims the former prime minister ordered up a duplicate of a Bush suit 
de Paris was making. Tragically he is silent on the only Bush fashion question to have ever troubled Americans:
What the hell was that thing on his upper back? 
*March 30,1981
There Were Giants Here Once 
To the Ford Presidential Library, where a fabled small but perfectly formed miniature White House is on display.
Joining the fun are Peter Sharkey’s obsessively detailed model drawings of any and all White House rooms and the exterior grounds.
Just the thing for planning your radio controlled model aircraft attack, or carrier pigeon conspiracy.
Mr. Sharkey also sees to your 
underground White House laundry room viewing needs.
Your pining for impossible overhead views of the Oval Office is also met, as well as White House pool shots that look vaguely like crime scenes.
A Cry For Help 
Laura Bush’s glazed look was much commented upon while her husband served as president. Now the shocking truth can be revealed: Laura Bush is actually drug and plastic surgery ravaged Betty Ford!
A Ford In Her Future 
Texas sculptor Scott Sustek is creating a statue for Austin’s Laura Bush Library, under construction in the state capitol. 
The former First Lady posed for him and submitted to measurements, and she and her staff appear to have approved his Ford-ifying.
Not On Our Watch! 
Defying the Washington Consensus, a majority of Americans favor investigation of alleged Bush Administration crimes.
Cuddly recollections of Gerald “Decent Man” Ford notwithstanding.
Please Send Checks 
From Ronald Reagan’s Favorite Newspaper comes word of posthumous woes for the real estate legacy of the man he almost beat in 1976, Gerry Ford.
Human Events reports that Ford’s former Arlington Virginia home, dead in the market since at least 2006, has had it’s sale price chopped again, to $800,000.
And the economic meltdown haunts another storied Ford property, his Colorado ski home. Strenuous efforts to spread presidential pixie dust have come to naught. They’ve now knocked $2 million off the price, bringing it down to a low, low $13 million.
Where it lingers still.
