"Even though the election is over, you can help the President more than you know. By hosting an Inaugural Party for the President, you continue to show your support for the President's policies and agenda. By opening your door to friends and neighbors to celebrate the Inauguration, you continue to spread the President's message of hope and prosperity. Will you share your home with friends, family and neighbors?

We're celebrating four more years of principled leadership, and looking forward to realization of the President's Agenda. Will you join us?"

Sincerely,
Ken Mehlman

Inaugural attitude: Pony up, party on

By Elisabeth Bumiller
New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Kelsey Grammer will be the emcee at a kickoff inaugural gala honoring the military, the rap artist Kid Rock will perform at an inaugural youth concert and President Bush's most reliable fund-raisers have so far collected $15 million for three days of meticulously planned parties to celebrate his second swearing-in later this month.

One senior inaugural official, who asked not to be identified, noted that military planners began preparing logistics for the inaugural before the November election, as they always do, and that they had marked off a section of Capitol Hill for a "farewell to the commander in chief" should Bush have lost. The point, the official said, was that the inaugural was a bipartisan celebration of democracy, not just of Bush.

Of course, huge pictures of Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney did greet inaugural committee visitors the moment they stepped off the elevator last week.

Fund-raisers say that the inaugural check-collecting is proceeding on schedule, even though they now have a little more than two weeks to raise $15 million to $25 million for the festivities centered around the Jan. 20 swearing-in. Like last time, the party's biggest donors are calling up other big donors and corporate executives and asking for money, specifically in $100,000 or $250,000 increments that buy packages of invitations and access to the president. The Bush twins, Jenna and Barbara, will be hosts of the youth concert, where the teenage singer JoJo will appear along with Kid Rock.
