Thanks for the PSA, Ray.
Don't know anybody there, or anybody who will be watching.

I have had it on Fox TV and will keep it on. I saw the swearing-in ceremony. Have things to do today, will be coming and going, but will keep the TV on. It's always an amazing day in our free Republic.

Didn't watch it--wouldn't watch that pile be sworn in if I were paid to do so. I did however watch bits and pieces of the spin by several networks afterwards---and the hype was nauseating. One on HLN said that Obama was making his stand to become the next Ronald Reagan since he is lame duck...something to the effect of not having to account to others and work strictly behind his convictions.
Sickening and repulsive--the media and their hype, and Obama--the fraud in chief.

Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing

Unemployment rate is the same as when he took office. At least we got hope.

A pretty succinct defense of economic liberalism from the prez:
Quote:

We, the people, still believe that every citizen deserves a basic measure of security and dignity. We must make the hard choices to reduce the cost of health care and the size of our deficit. But we reject the belief that America must choose between caring for the generation that built this country and investing in the generation that will build its future. For we remember the lessons of our past, when twilight years were spent in poverty, and parents of a child with a disability had nowhere to turn. We do not believe that in this country, freedom is reserved for the lucky, or happiness for the few. We recognize that no matter how responsibly we live our lives, any one of us, at any time, may face a job loss, or a sudden illness, or a home swept away in a terrible storm. The commitments we make to each other – through Medicare, and Medicaid, and Social Security – these things do not sap our initiative; they strengthen us. They do not make us a nation of takers; they free us to take the risks that make this country great.

The man does enjoy setting up false choice strawman arguments.
