People of my parent's generation have a valid complaint. That people of my generation generally don't know how to entertain and lack the understanding of a good Dinner party and such.
Perhaps the Obama's are a sign of that. Perhaps they represent us well in that regard
First we had the way too partisan Guest list for the India Dinner
You got the Jews now talking about the good ole days of the Bush White House Party
Obama snubbed the King of Norway today for the traditional Lunch andthat is causing problems
AND NOW ARTISTs are mad. See via the Pink Flamingo Who Knew – Hollywood Misses #43 & His Lovely First Lady!
Update!!!
I posted this on my political board and it seems my generation came a calling. WHO CARES!! GOOD LETS NOT WASTE MONEY was the answer. This seems to be both a conservative and liberal viewpoint.
When did Conservatives and Republicans get like this? Do people recall that after stick in the mud Jimmy Carter got of the White House how we all loved that Reagan turned up the thermostat and brought some glamor and class to the White House. Nancy Reagan got it in the media for that but the Reagans understood the importance.
But yes it does matter when you are dealing with the particular social animal called Homo sapiens .There are reasons why so many of the great moments of the world are centered around food and drink.
Even Jefferson Recognized that. See See Dinner at Mr. Jefferson's: Three Men, Five Great Wines, and the Evening That Changed America
