They may come from opposite ends of the political spectrum but today President Bush and Gov. Rendell share a similar platform -- literally.
While shooting inaugural preparation pictures yesterday, my eagle-eyed colleague, photographer Larry Kesterson, spotted a large wood crate – like the kind Wiley Coyote would use to stash the Acme Dynamite - sitting near where Rendell's swearing-in ceremony was to take place. Stamped on it in large block letters was “Bush-Cheney Transition."
Turns out it contained the podium that will be used later today by Rendell.
An employee with Hargrove Inc., a large trade show contractor, confirmed the stage was recycled from President Bush's inaugural. The Maryland-based company, which has whipped up parade floats for Mardi Gras and the Tournament of Roses, boasts on its Web site that it has designed sets for all the presidential inaugurations since 1949.
