The cold masses in DC for Barack Obama's inauguration will get a little treat from NYC tomorrow. The Daily News reports that a fifth-generation East Village bagel maker has been hard at work preparing 1 million bagels to hand out to folks, free of charge. Adam Rosner of Bagel Boss and 200 of his employees began the dough-making process last Thursday "at their 14 shops in Manhattan and on Long Island." Today they begin their journey to the nation's capital, riding down on 14 trucks, and tomorrow 50 employees and Young Dems will pass out the...day old bagels (beggars can't be choosers!), which will come in a variety ranging from honey whole wheat to sesame. As for the total bill, Rosner spent tens of thousands on the delicious donation, and told the paper that while he backs Obama now, he actually voted for McCain!





I don't believe the 1 million figure.
Um, I hope they called ahead for access. From what I hear, the city is in lockdown -- especially for large unannounced trucks.
...if they get turned away, you can drop them off at my house. I'm feeling a little peckish.
feed the geese with them.
Just what Washington needs: another republican schmear campaign.
Isn't this just going to cause the masses to shit more often. There's already a shortage of toilets.
