		<description>Leave it to the cheap folks from Minneapolis who awarded a $144-K contract to the DC based PR giant.  It costs $144-K just to park your limo in DC.

City Council rubes.</description>

Maybe quit erecting mindless statues and idiotic drinking fountains for starters if the city needs cash that bad...</description>
