Eating Like Lincoln

I think this Lincoln fetish that Barack Obama has is going a little too far:
They're going to party like it's 1861!

In what will be a Lincoln-themed inauguration from top to bottom, Obama won't only follow in the footsteps of the former president - he'll also eat like him, it was announced yesterday.
I guess the inaugural dinner will be hardtack and salt pork. Actually, that's probably good since there will be a shortage of port-a-potties that day:

WASHINGTON - The masses heading to the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama could spend a lot of time in line for a port-a-potty.

A George Washington University law professor says the 5,000 port-o-potties planned for Inauguration Day will be "grossly inadequate."

Professor John Banzhaf, the so-called "Father of Potty Parity" sent a letter to the Presidential Inaugural Committee warning of potential lawsuits.

He says women, who take longer in the restroom, could be forced to wait in longer lines than men, and that amounts to discrimination.


Maybe they could cut down on the port-a-potty usage by letting the guys do their things out behind the nearest tree like they did in Lincoln's day.
