Gently brays the donkey

ARTICLE: Be Our Guest!, By David Montgomery, Washington Post, January 20, 2009; Page C01

Remember when Tom tweeted about a floral donkey? To refresh your memory:

At Ritz Carlton prez suite for meeting. See giant floral donkey in front lobby.

From the WaPo:

Down in the lobby, a giant green donkey is stealing the show. Surely a shoulder-high topiary Democratic beast beneath the bronze chandelier is not standard Ritz lobby furniture -- but it's a hit. Guests are giving it sunglasses, posing for pictures. "Say cheese!" "No, say Obama!" "Ready? Obama on three!"
