Just before the old bag reported in on class, there was a debate between two National Public Radio correspondents--one male, one female--about the color of Shelly-O's dress, whether it's yellow or mustard.

Oh, it absolutely is. That's the one thing that worries me the most about all this.

I'm sure that our country will survive. We made it through four years of Carter and eight of Clinton, so we'll make it through four years of the guy who has the worst of both of them, Carter's cluelessness and Clinton's self importance.

This IS historic for black people everywhere in America.

I admit to feeling a little bit of pride that our country elected a black man to it's highest office.

Mind you if he had been a black CONSERVATIVE it would have been perfect, lol, but...

My family buried 3 ancestors who died in Union Blue and who had signed up not to preserve a union or for any other reason than to join an army that was fighting to make men free.

All other considerations aside, this IS a proud day for our Union. :)

I thought it was unprofessional. this is all in a perfect world, of course, but journalists used to at least try to protect their impartiality.

and the liberalized history of the Civil war touches even the best conservatives. ASDF, may I remind you that the civil war was not started to "make men free", but as an answer to the inappropriate taxation of the South by the North. It was a while into the war that it changed to that mantra.

also from the benediction:

Quote
“For white folks in the South to vote for a black man as president is drastic. This is revolutionary," Lowery says. "The Democratic Party can take credit, but the Democrats didn't do it. God did it. God was in the plan. Nobody else could have gotten these white folks to vote for a Negro named Barack Obama."

Dude do NOT tell me why they enlisted. This is my family and the stories have been handed down by some very proud people. I KNOW why the civil war was fought and I KNOW why OUR family members that fell wearing blue signed up and served. My people on my mothers side were strong abolitionists.

Although me and the wife were watching Tom & Jerry over breakfast..... they had a damn cartoon (not much of a stretch if ya ask me) Obama during the commercials! So we switched it to Animal Planet.

Totally agree.

MLK Jr. wanted us to look past the color of a person's skin and look instead at the content of one's character.

The exact opposite happened here. Nobody gives a shit about his character or socialist policies because, hey!, he's BLACK baby! It's all good.

Mrs. E left the TV on when she went to work this morning (she leaves about an hour after I do).

When I got home for lunch, minutes after the Swearing In debacle, there it was on the tube.

The dog had her paws over her ears and her eyes shut. The birds were frantically trying to scrabble out of their cages.

It took me 20 minutes to calm everybody down. They were all appalled and disheartened.

The birds got an extra almond as a treat and then the dog and I went outside where she took an enormous Obamadump. (It stank pretty bad.)

It is said that Obama actually wrote his own speech. So, I got about what I expected, a mishmash.

Folk say he is "very smart" others say he's got an IQ that is "off the charts". Frankly, I don't see it. What I see is a man with a talent , a gift, alowing him to be an exceptionally good "reader" and alowing him to take direction exceptionally well. tHINGS THAT will getb you votes, but don't qualify you to do things correctly. Or, be a good president.

If you watched him at the school, where he "helped" paint , it was more than obvious he'd never done any painting before. Worse, his conversational abilities were minimal, and these were HS level kids. Sorry, Obama does not impress.

this thing is massively behind schedule.  historically, it starts around 2 and takes 2 hours.  it's freaking dark in DC now, which is no place for, say, a high school band from ohio to be.  even if it isn't 20 degrees.  I wonder if this will turn out to be an Obamen :-)

if this was a republican president, the headlines right now would be saying "New Republican Administrations Starts Amid Confusion, Disarray".

I just noticed a Navy Band saluting the President as they marched past the review stand (of course), but The President put his hand over his heart.  I thought the protocol since reagan was to return the salute?  admittedly, the man is commander in chief, so he is entitled to do whatever he wants to do . . . still, though, it was interesting.



(Heh.  I just saw the Petal High School Band.  Petal is very close to Hattiesburg :-))

Good Morning All,
 
There’s an Inauguration cake in the kitchen. Chocolate of course! Enjoy!
 
Have a great day,
:thatsright: :whatever:

We all gathered around a large flat screen to watch it on CNN's site. The plus side was no talking heads. The minus side was a freezing screen. The sound never went out but the picture locked up a lot.

My co-workers (Chocolate cake lovers!!  :lmao: ) were just "amazed" at how gracious Bush was. They just couldn't get over how nice and cordial he seemed.  :whatever: FFS!! I kept quietly saying, "you do realize that this is a Presidential Inaguration and that a certain level of tact and decorum and protocol come into play right?" Sheesh!

I walked out of the room at the end and said, "Now where's my pony!?!?".  :-) A couple of co-workers got a kick out of that.

During Tuesday morning’s inaugural coverage on MSNBC, when spectators were heard booing President Bush as he was introduced, Chris Matthews seemed to become uncomfortable and criticized the protest as "bad form," remarking, "Don’t do that. Don’t boo, don’t boo, don’t boo." But minutes later, when protesters could be heard singing "Hey, hey, goodbye," co-anchor Keith Olbermann seemed to suggest that he was only bothered by the behavior because it distracted attention from Michelle Obama’s introduction. Olbermann: "Far be it for me to have been critical of anyone critical of this President, obviously, but, unfortunately, during that demonstration, something of the introduction of Mrs. Obama was lost because people were singing the, they still are, the ‘Hey, hey,’ song from various sporting events over the year, towards the 43rd President."

I left the inauguration stuff for Sportcenter before the balls started, but the Obamas CERTAINLY look quite pleased with themselves tonight, don't they?  perhaps too pleased.  they don't seem to realize that this isn't about them, and they don't seem fully conscious that this isn't just a big game with more flashing lights and a bigger plane.

I don't think she's ugly, just has terrible taste in clothes. You'd think someone would advise her a bit better with her choice of clothes, but no one probably has the guts. I suspect she'd throw a little (or big) fit if anyone told her the truth.

I'm not a fashionista, in fact hate getting "dressed up", but I was amazed at that day time outfit. It was horrible. What's going to be funny is to hear the press gushing about the gorgeous outfits. It's sort of the "emperor has no clothes" syndrome.

Both outfits were way off proportionately. She's tall and can get by with wearing many outfits, but both dresses just weren't for her.

It's almost funny with all of them gushing that she's just like Jackie O. Don't think so. Jackie had the benefit of all that debutante training. I never was a deb and feel uneasy around folks that do. Actually, I feel sort of sorry for Michelle (don't tell anyone I ever said that).  :-)

I haven't read this whole thread but I was curious if anyone noticed the "drill team" girls (several different groups of them) and the way they danced?  I thought it was very disrespectful to dance so provocatively for the President.

She ain't beautiful.  There are many beautiful black women -- Condi, Tina Turner, Beyonce, Fergie, Halle Berry.  shellie ain't even in the top 57%

She is ugly and no amount of PC can end that fact.

But for the next 4 years (hopefully 2 years if we get the impeachment) the PC crowd will crow about her "beauty."




While I think Michele is attractive, I wouldn't call her beautiful.   But Fergie as a beautiful black woman?   :lmao:

The Flags people should have taken home with them. The rest the garbage had no where to go because there were no trash recepticles around,for security reasons.

Sadly the flags ended up the same place they did during the Democrat Party Convention...on the ground where they were stepped on.

OMG! Can you imagine the outrage if McCain had won? They would have ran that picture with all of the trash on every news channel and made it the headline story.

If - by some miracle - McLame had been elected, there wouldn't have been any of that trash to take pictures of.  Except where the DUmbasses had held one of their "hope rallies".
