Bush has put the White House Up for Sale!

This weekend, President Bush is holding a barbecue for 350 of his closest friends. These corporate executives and lobbyists have pledged to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for Bush's 2004 re-election campaign. But while the fat cats chow down on barbecue and whisper in the president's ear, average Americans are getting their goose cooked.

Public Citizen, in conjunction with Texans for Public Justice, has launched a new Web site and campaign to shed some light on the auction for access and political favor free-for-all. WhiteHouseforSale.org tracks the special interest contributions and analyzes the record of favoritism, conflicts-of-interest and influence peddling related to those contributions.

Public Citizen is a national, nonprofit consumer advocacy organization founded by Ralph Nader in 1971 to represent consumer interests in Congress, the executive branch and the courts.
