No Room At The Inn For Gadhafi


It looks like Moammar Gadhafi won't be staying at the Pierre Hotel after all when he makes his trip to New York. It's been no easy task finding a place for the Libyan dictator to bunk. First he wanted to erect a luxury tent on a Libyan-owned property in New Jersey but later changed his mind and decided to stay at the Pierre. But protests have followed each new decision and now it looks like he will stay at the Libyan Mission to the United States instead, the one place in the area it seems he is actually welcome. In a related story, the Helmsley Hotel canceled a banquet when it learned Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was on the guest list.
