F--k, now I'm crying.

Clinton spoke at my graduation. The Onion-esque paper at my school had a headline - "Clinton to graduates: sorry you weren't born 8 years ago".

"Opportunity to extend opportunity to every willing heart" ... and he gave a shout out to science and education...

Gunny Highway: Kay Sahn?

Came here for this.

IXI Jim IXI

It was over after I posted that.

bulldg4life: Yeah, everybody is all blowing things out of proportion and being all exaggerating. Golly. Can't a guy run an illegal prison and start a ridiculous war in peace?

Thank you for proving my point.

Obama became president at noon exatcly, oath or not. There is no "in-between" time.

Noon, always- this is why the urban legend of the "other" 12th president is not true.

Tokin42: Edsel: Tokin42: Great, another flowery speech that doesn't actually say anything other than "man, we're awesome"

It's an inauguration address. WTF do you want, a recitation of budget allocations?

I'm sorry, after 3 years of the same you aren't detecting a pattern yet?

No, in the interim I've seen detailed positions for everything from Net Neutrality to closing Gitmo to the stimulus plan. But you must only be paying attention to the big network speeches, so you know, maybe look into that stuff if you're interested.

nuclear_asshat: Are you kidding?

This is the best thing that has ever happened to him. He has Obama in the White House and Pelosi in the House. No Republicans are in charge. That means it's open season. Everything that happens becomes the fault of Democrats.

Wasn't that the case when the Republicans were in charge? Hell, I hear all the time about how this economic crisis is the fault of a president who's term ended eight years ago.

it doesn't become the fault of Democrats, it WILL BE the fault of Democrats......just remember how you blamed everything including natural disasters on Bush and Republicans.....same rules apply....whoever is in charge owns the responsibility for every problem....


get used to it


and spare me your bu bu bu bu Bush...crap.....you will be met with the same contempt that you met the Clinton haters with...

very very very carefully thought out speech

Wow, Bush doesn't look happy.

"We are ready to lead once more"

Awesome.

The way he reads those words written by somebody else off of the teleprompter just melts my heart.

Lets hope this is the end of the rhetoric. After today all speeches should apply to the present and the future.

Will President-elect Mahdi bow toward Mecca as he takes his oath? You guys biatch about how bad we Christians are. Wait until Muslims are the majority in this country (which they will be, eventually. They are immigrating here and tend to have large families). No one ever expected Britain to allow Sharia law in parts of their country but it has happened. I give it 20-25 years.


/Britain, France, Germany, The Nederlands have all thrown up their hands and have (in effect) said, "There are too many of them now for us to do anything and their culture is equally or more valid than our own".

WTF? Iran, come with open arms, friend!

bulldg4life: Then pray tell why did you attack some senator from Illinois for months on end and defend the actions of the Bush administration.

I'm confused.

Yes, you are confused.

I never defended Bush. Ever. Never voted for him, either.

And, Obama is just another politician. Nothing special about him except the way the media approach him, which is something to see.

Weaver95: listen to the limbaugh show

Oh, dear God no.

Well shiat. I was kinda hopin for a GOP coup. Than i could stop all this studying and spend more time causing mayhem. Im lookin to you Mr. Obama to keep up my paranoid dreams.

that's jealousy.

jealousy that you are smarter than them.

that you are more successful than them.

and that you act in accordance to their god far more than they ever have.

sip on the tears.

Delicious.

CanisNoir: Actually it was the left that focused on the BJ - the right focused on the law breaking.

Hahahah...your revisionism...it so cute.

at80eighty: very very very carefully thought out speech

I'm sure the speech writer thanks you for the compliments.

Farking awesome speech so far...

Phineas: Hopefully the lung cancer gets him before too long.

The hollowness of your soul saddens me.

CanisNoir: Thank you for proving my point.

lol

Yeah, the complaints are big exaggerations. What color is the sky in your world where you are correct in your statements?

FarkinNortherner
Why is George HW Bush dressed as a 1980s Soviet leader ?

To match the last years' style of government?

StreetlightInTheGhetto: F--k, now I'm crying.



What kind of person cries because of a inauguration speech? That's like being moved to tears by a nigerian email scam letter.

We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus - and non-believers.

Hell yes! Take that, fundies :D

The people over his right shoulder look like really grumpy russians or something.

Next on Fox News (all month:)

last.man.standing: He botched the oath!

Lol... idiot.

"Oh...and before my speech is over, I'd be remiss if I didn't thank the person most responsible for this momentous occasion. So thank you, Sarah Palin. Thank you from a grateful nation."

I hope he means what he said about terrorism. Dude is about to release from GITMO a bunch of really, REALLY bad guys...

Alien Robot: First He doesn't have a valid birth certificate, now He hasn't sworn a valid oath of office.

Yeah, run with that. See how far you get.

W00T!

Non-believers!

"non-believers" interesting choice of words.

woop woop nonelievers got a shout out!
