Perhaps the greatest and last gesture of good taste came from Bergé, who announced that proceeds from the three-day sale--$484 million total--would be donated to charity...

...Taxpayers for Common Sense. "They have got to draw it in 2010 or it's irrelevant, whatever the promises are." (The Democratic leadership estimates that there are only $3.8 billion earmarks in the bill, while Ellis' nonpartisan watchdog group includes Army Corps of Engineers projects to reach a total of $7.7 billion - a figure still under Obama's targeted 1994 figure of $7.8 billion.)
