So says Bruce McQuain at The Conservative Commune.  And he's right:

"~A federal grant for $765,828 went to—I am not making this up, as Dave Barry would say—bring an International House of Pancakes franchise to Washington, D.C.

Because bringing IHOPs to D.C. is a primary function of the United States government, and worthy of every dollar spent."

Our tax dollars at work, folks. We definitely in it for the long haul.
