2. Waste. Of. Money.

I don't care if it's always been done, I don't care who paid for it.

The money should have gone to help those in New Orleans, or the homeless, or for some other cause. Laura's rug was tacky, but they could have brought in furniture from another room in the White House. I'm sure the White House has lots of sofas, chairs, and rugs in it.

Switch them out, and viola! new decor at minimal cost. The money should have been donated to help those who really need it. Obama didn't need a new office.
