Cat toy
"No one is expecting David Geffen to spend his days golfing, but there is a danger that if the coming election becomes his full-time hobby, his precision ruthlessness will distort the public process," writes N.Y. Times reporter David Carr. "After all, this is not a movie sale, a busted deal or a Don Henley album; this is about the duly elected leader of the United States.
"Geffen and Ron Burkle, another Los Angeles billionaire who is a staunch ally of the Clintons, have already fought for custody of the Los Angeles Times. No one wants to see the presidency treated as a cat toy between rich men who don’t like to lose.

Right, that would interfere with its proper status as a cat toy between the Bush family and the Clinton family.

"the presidency"?? you mean the presidential CANDIDACY. Big difference.
Republicans are salivating...it's early, but if this acrimony carries into '08, all the Hollywood money in the world won't be able to turn things back towards the Dems...

After all of these warnings, you may still wish to buy a REPLICA WATCHES. However, it's probably not the best idea. The money that you spend on a counterfeit can be better used toward a high quality timepiece that will last. It's also possible that the purchase price will support unauthorized, criminal activity. After all, the original designers earned nothing from the fake breitling watches, which is not fair.
