He claims to be all about change, but this is just more of the same wasteful spending and misguided priorities.<BR/><BR/>We have countless millions struggling in poverty, without adequate housing, food, or healthcare.<BR/><BR/>The inauguration should be quick, simple, private, and cheap, not just another excuse to party while those less-fortunate continue to suffer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-77382715088892157672009-01-17T11:13:00.000-06:002009-01-17T11:13:00.000-06:00m.v.: Democrat bashers ARE interested in seeing Ob...m.v.: Democrat bashers ARE interested in seeing Obama and this administration fail. After all, they have had to feel responsible for Bush and the state of our economy for 8 years if they are honest with themselves. Misery loves company and the failure of this new administration is exactly what people like you are hoping for, so then you can say "told you so". Your comment managed to say a whole lot of nothing.btlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06562378085895463249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-41104752273796866862009-01-17T06:58:00.000-06:002009-01-17T06:58:00.000-06:00"Ok, some facts."Don't ever let the facts get in t..."Ok, some facts."<BR/><BR/>Don't ever let the facts get in the way of a good rant....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-51256040194643156702009-01-16T20:12:00.000-06:002009-01-16T20:12:00.000-06:00BTL, you extrapolate too much-in this particular c...BTL, you extrapolate too much-in this particular case I was talking about a state of affairs in the country now and four years ago without assigning the blame (not that I don't assign blame but this time I didn't intend to). I personally convinced that "working together" is rhetoric bullshit, but I am not interested in anything failing, since I live here and that would be against my own interests.kcmeeshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16640259113083899984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-85805834758185591932009-01-16T19:53:00.000-06:002009-01-16T19:53:00.000-06:00I was in a hurry earlier and posted as anonymous; ...I was in a hurry earlier and posted as anonymous; not one to not sign my "name", I'm back. m.v.; let me make sure I understand, before Obama is even in office you are blaming him for the loss of 401K's and the state of our economy? So like Democrat bashers.....all blame without taking any responsibility for their part of what has happened in our country for the past 8 years. The usual "blame game". What happened to working together for the good of our country. Seems to me the "losing party" is more interested in the failure of this administration than the best interests of the citizens and country.btlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06562378085895463249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-53446959919316542062009-01-16T17:43:00.000-06:002009-01-16T17:43:00.000-06:00why not heap the blame on democrats and Obama? 4 y...why not heap the blame on democrats and Obama? 4 years ago we had war but some of us had 401k's, more people lived in houses and drove cars they couldn't afford- they were happy. now we are in CRISIS. also it's too late to be appalled at stuff that happened 4 years ago and is the right time to bitch about what happens now.kcmeeshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16640259113083899984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-18274889651694840852009-01-16T15:51:00.000-06:002009-01-16T15:51:00.000-06:00Ok, some facts....which each inauguration, you hav...Ok, some facts....which each inauguration, you have to figure inflation,etc. Up until this inauguration, Bush's 2nd one was the most expensive. I bet a lot of people didn't know that. Just do a little "google" research and you will see. But ask yourself, Why did Bush need to spend all that money for his 2nd time around when we were in the middle of a war? That should appall everyone! And why indeed did he need to spend millions of dollars for his 2nd inauguration? Obama has raised 1/3 of the necessary funds from private donations. The other 2/3 is required for security for the surrounding states. Let's not heap all the blame on the Democrats or Obama.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-92084389316023255502009-01-16T08:55:00.000-06:002009-01-16T08:55:00.000-06:00I understand the expense, but wish they had taken ...I understand the expense, but wish they had taken a different tactic, since the economy is so bad.<BR/><BR/>So many people are coming, and it's an event that the entire world will be watching, so they feel the need to do it big.<BR/><BR/>Still, a stronger statement would have been to scale is down and announce that while the economy was hurting so much he didn't feel like this was a good use of money.Stacey Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11925284727494784182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-42256899000715158332009-01-16T07:32:00.000-06:002009-01-16T07:32:00.000-06:00Part of that cost is due to the fact that two mill...Part of that cost is due to the fact that two million people are expected, while you couldn't get twenty Rabid Retarded Republican Housewives alone in one room for either of Bush's lovefests.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-52878364490385681722009-01-15T22:17:00.000-06:002009-01-15T22:17:00.000-06:00i don't think 'bo' is his favorite abbreviationi don't think 'bo' is his favorite abbreviationkcmeeshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16640259113083899984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-69477133734737869962009-01-15T16:12:00.000-06:002009-01-15T16:12:00.000-06:00Don't worry Moxie, Obama is paying for it himself ...Don't worry Moxie, Obama is paying for it himself with all of the extra "hope" he's creating. <BR/><BR/>Now that's change we can believe in!FletcherDodgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00870340800475532887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085622190821744114.post-62053909170055663232009-01-15T15:16:00.000-06:002009-01-15T15:16:00.000-06:00I'm tickled to death that Obama was elected, but, ...I'm tickled to death that Obama was elected, but, unfortunately it doesn't change the basic fact of Washington politics.
