An Iranian-American guy who's house is an exact 1/3 replica of the White House has put it up for sale:

That's really cool! If only I had a spare 10 mil. I wonder if it comes with a 1/3-scale underground bunker with a Dick Cheney blowup doll inside...

Not to derail the light heartedness of the thread but this reminds me of what I saw on the news about how the Bushes were leaving the Obamas two sets of china that were each priced at $2 million plus and how I thought, "I wonder how much of the deficit could be paid back by selling all the collectibles in the white house alone?"
The country's in the toilet, banks and companies are asking for bail-outs that the people don't want to give and yet we hang on to antiques.

Most of the politicians are antiques and nearly every one of them are for sale already.
