I don't have a problem with students watching the inauguration at school -- I think they should all still be watching the space shuttle launches like we did when we were children. 

That said, it should be every inauguration, not just the Messiah's coronation.

We got an inch of snow yesterday night.  Didn't affect traffic at all because it was pure powder.  Local schools used that as an excuse to close for the day though.   :whatever:

We got about 3" yesterday morning. Just enough to ice the bridges good and make a few slick spots of black ice. 17 degress now and the snow is still out there this morning but the roads are fine....except for the few spots that look "wet".

I drove the wifes route to work at 5 am. this morning to check the road. It was fine except 2 small spots. Least little thing and she's afraid to drive.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Did she get a picture of that powerful moving moment ???  It's a lie.
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

All I know is that I was inspired to have a "movement" of my own right about then.

Sometimes you count the small blessings in life, and having these moonbats away from the students, even for a short while, means the children were that much better off.

Because third world peasant labor is a good thing.
