presidential inauguration 2009 ????

[Sammie]

Other than O making sure that America doesn’t do what he’s already said we don’t do, (torture anybody), other than him saying he'll remove U.S. troops from Iraq and Afghanistan, which will translate into removing zero troops from the Middle East, Big Business won't stop getting government bailouts, the Federal Reserve will continue to be The Dude, Congress will remain hopelessly bewildered, foreign aid will not be reigned in, foreign policy will stay the same. The welfare state will still be the welfare state, there will be no overhauling NATO.

Everyone O has surrounded himself with is a politician with years of prior experience. None of them has ever rocked the boat. No matter who's elected, how much actually changes? Saying he will do things differently brought him into office. I personally don't know when "America fell and now She can't get up..." Or is O correct in saying that she did? Remember,
a European's fondest wish is to move to America...

I guess we just hit a lil speed bump in 2008 on Jr's watch...
European's fondest wish to move to America? This is 2009, not 1948. However, Bush did mention Africans and India's residents like us$

The real danger here is a terrorist threat. If one were to materiliaze this country would run the risk of losing 3 to 5 million hardcore liberals. ....

On second thought do we really need to waste our tax dollars on all that security?

That's a good one Tie,lol... but I'd rather see our tax dollars placing Bush, Cheney, Rove, and Rumsfeld in handcuffs, booked, fingerprinted and shipped to Gitmo and made to perform naked pyramids on camera

Don't want any parts of that traffic jam on that day. Shoot they are even closing down the Potomac river for 10 days, starting the 14th from the WW bridge on into DC. Screwed up my fishing for the next 2 weeks.

I watched the whole presidential inauguration 2009 on FOX yesterday , and i was disappointed, I was waiting for OBAMA to take 5 loaves of bread and a couple of fish to feed the crowds ,oh well I think Tom Brokaw & Katie & barbara Striesand were all still excited!!!

 

[moreluck]

I did watch it, but on a local channel KCAL 9 because a friend of ours was doing the color commentary on the military stuff. He was in the Army Old Guard and has been involved in many inaugurations....Col. Frank Legare (ret.)

[toonertoo]

The thing that gets me mad is them extending the bar hours past the normal 2 AM. closings just for this event. Oh boy, not only 3 million people, but 3 million drunk people !!! That's just plain stupid !!

Which would be the only way I could stand the crowd.
