5. You can't spend that much on TakeOut Sushi
I just went to one of the fanciest Sushi restaurants over the weekend and spent about $150 for 4 people. If we were to completely pig out and not be selective at all, we might have spent twice that. If I tripled the amount of people and said, "The Sky's the Limit", I would have a hard time reaching $1,000 for this meal. How do you get to $20,000 with "Take Out".

Okay, I can't resist the pun, but...(are you ready for this?)... It seems pretty Fishy to me! :)

8. I suspect you can spend $20K on sushi if you live in New York.

I don't know where you're from, but the fanciest sushi restaurant anywhere else is probably the second or third tier in New York- and remember, he ordered from two different places. He probably got the whole spread from both so he and his family could do a taste test.

10. I beg to differ
Try finding some URLs of a Sushi Restaurant in NYC that could run so high. Remember, 20,000 is alot of Sushi, no matter how you slice it (sorry I am on a "roll" with puns today)

9. The Dems should have let the Goppers keep him.
Either way, when Fox "News" gets hold of the story they'll be reporting he was a Democrat and not just a mercenary.
