***The OFFICIAL INAUGURATION THREAD***

[Uh-huh 0]

8 year nightmare? Really? I'll give you 3 or so, but EIGHT?

Technically more than 8, if you start counting from December 9, 2000. That's when this disaster actually started.

[RLLD 4,275]

Obama is left handed, sign of the antichrist....I just wanted to be the first one to say it....

[wiffleball 4,797]

First time they showed him I thought, "Hey, Mr. Potter from It's a Wonderful Life is here!"

 

[posty 2,812]

Didn't watch the speech... Did they have an ebonics translator?

[phillybear 366]

Couldn't have said it better. I was definitely inspired by the hope of us becoming united as a country and as a world.

 

In a two party system, uniting is impossible.

 

And fock the world. That's like being a manager of a team, and taking marching orders from the fans. Stupid.

[naomi 360]

I think they just aired Def Poetry Jam live on TV.

 

...Yellow will be mellow, the red man can get ahead man, white will embrace what is right.

"Brown don't be down" or something rather was in there somewhere. In the midst of all the noble sounding formal speak that was a great interruption.

No, it's like being manager of a team but making sure that the league is still sound enough to keep the game alive. The other teams still affect the league as a whole so what they do and how we deal with them affect us as well. Common sense.

Pennie is somewhere out in the crowd yelling at the crackers to back the fock off....

No, that's called being a pussie.

 

Let's look at a league that doesn't practice communism, like baseball. Should the Boston RedSox ask permission from the Oakland A's to sign a free agent, make sure their feelings aren't hurt, make sure Oakland can still be competitive next year, or do they focking do the right thing for their team and their fans and go for dominance and a championship.

I disagree.

He has been sworn in. He could now give two fucks less about the American people. He and the media have just pulled off one of the biggest fleece jobs ever.

[Thornton Melon 648]

Its inauguration day, we ALL just swore in an African American president.

 

Ummmm, I didn't....

[phillybear 366]

Ummmm, I didn't....

 

Well, I, for one, have been swearing.

[surferskin 31]

There goes the neighborhood.

[surferskin 31]

Benediction at Obama 's inauguration, Rev. Joseph Lowery: 'Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around... when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen'...

 

So when does this guy get a cabinet position?

[NewbieJr 541]

Hate is cool.

[phillybear 366]

Hate is cool.

 

Speaking of which, ever notice how Fonzie was 40 years old, but he hung out with high school kids and dated teenage girls? And this was cool, while that poor, innocent bike repair shop owner got arrested for giving Dudley a roofie. Where is the justice in the world?

 

No justice, no peace.

i guess i'm one of the few geeks working today.

i was only able to catch biden and obama swearing in and obama's speech.

i've just finished watching lowery's benediction on youtube.

i found the end of his speech to be offensive and low brow-quite unfortunate in comparison to the tone of the rest of the event.

i feel bad that u had to work today..everyone deserved to see this somehow...i agree with u on everything you said..the ending was odd...obama himself looked like he was trying to pretend it didnt happen....

 

im glad that the weather cooperated for this....

GEORGE BUSH IS OFFICIALLY OUT OF WASHINGTON!

 

 

His plane has just taken off.

 

Interestingly, while he's still technically on what we refer to as "Air Force One', since he's no longer President, you can't officially call it that. It's call sign now is Failure One.

Maybe his pilot will try to one up the U.S. Airlines pilot from the Hudson landing last week and see if he can land in the Patomic.

[wiffleball 4,797]

...And here's where I turned off the video feed:

 

Sam Donaldson asking "Is there litter?"

 

Followed almost immediately by Radio Host Michael Reagan giving a shout out to his daughter's 3rd grade class.

 

That's officially when you know you should cut from live and return to your regularly scheduled programming.

[Yer mom 2]

Ummmm, I didn't....

 

One

[peenie 1,965]

thorton and ravens - please read:

The oath includes the phrase "that I will faithfully execute the office of president of the United States" but Roberts didn't say "faithfully" until after saying "president of the United States."

 

Obama apparently realized that something was out of order.

 

With Obama not reciting, Roberts then repeated the phrase correctly, the brief awkward moment ended and Obama was back on track.

That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen'...

 

So when does this guy get a cabinet position?

 

so, can we have Walt Kowalski give the benediction once a white guy gets back in?

 

Lord, in the memory of all the MEN who actually did something for this country, and in the joy of putting things back to the way they should be, we ask you to help us work for that day when the eggrolls and eggplants learn to speak proper English, when brown doesn't mean you get a free stuff and handouts just because you're Brown... when the red man can get ahead when he gets straight A's in school and a J-O-B; and when terrorists will embrace the idea that sometimes you come across somebody you shouldn't have messed with?. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen'...

and finally anybody offended by my sayin' "Amen" outta' clear out the back, cuz' I'm gonna shoot ya', shoot ya' friends, kill ya' dog, and burn your damn house down.

Amen.

 

I mean, I know it ain't right but it sure would be cute and funny to hear old Walt get up there and tell it like it is.

Amen.

Obamas dinner has been upstage by the collapse of 2 senators....

 

 

robert byrd and ted kennedy....

Byrd found out for the first time that the President was "colored" and Kennedy found out there wasn't an open bar.

And now he can sell his fake ass ranch that he bought in Texas to make him look like a "Good 'ol Boy" for the 2000 & 2004 elections. Oh that's right, he already sold it.

Maybe Roberts was trying to screw him up so the oath wouldn't be official and Obama would be disqualified on a technicality

Bobby the Brain Heenan snuck up behind the ref and whacked him with a chair. While Obama started punching Heenan near the ropes, Bob Barr came up behind Obama, sunset flipped him, and rolled him up for the 1-2-3.

 

Can you smellllllllaalalalalalallala what the Barr-B-Que is cooking?

[posty 2,812]

Still didn't hear the speech, but heard it was pretty lame and not very uplifting from the chosen one...

[jets24 6]

or....perhaps he can stop off at Barnes and Noble and buy you a focking dictionary.
