Most Americans don’t know this – but then this is a country that did reelect Obama – that Dear Ruler was sworn in for his second term yesterday. The Constitution says he’s to be sworn in on the 20th, and that’s probably the only part of the Constitution that Obama wants to stringently adhere to. But there was a grand opportunity for Obama --- he could delay the inauguration until today, the day of the official holiday for Martin Luther King Jr. After all! How could he resist! I would love to see someone figure out how much it cost the taxpayers to have this ceremony today rather than putting on the big Charlie Foxtrot yesterday, but I can’t see anyone in the ObamaMedia corps doing that.
My first tweet this morning read thusly:
"No plans to watch any news channel or program today. All about Dear Ruler's inauguration. Like watching a loved one being raped."
I was driving for 6 hours this morning and just got home. So, haven’t had to listen to his irritating staccato voice and have no plans on turning on the idiot box today.
Or, as another Freeper put it, "Dependence Day."
?? No what doesn't?
Pardon the ambiguity.
I'm understanding more and more why Elvis had to get a new tv.
Took my daughter to lunch . Moes had it on the TV I put my back to it and enjoyed my lunch with my lovely girl. Now I’m watching the Alamo.
AH I understand. Cataracts and the beginnings of macular degeneration tend to limit accuracy
I’ve long since quit listening to the news on TV and Radio. There’s hardly a spits worth of difference between parties and they all can’t wait to get to a microphone to lie about something. As for television news, it’s mostly the same; lying about lies. No facts, just agenda.
I listen to the Dana Show sometimes when I drive, otherwise I read online and form my own opinions. If I have the TV on in the evening, I watch shows where I might hear something witty and intelligent like King of Queens. (Irony in case you’re wondering..)
Do you have cataracts? Had one on both eyes removed last year and am now seeing 20/20 with glasses. Could do without glasses for far sight but there is some correction for distance in glasses, but must have them for reading.
If cataracts are your problem, get ‘em fixed in case of civil war so you can see your target. :o)
I turned on Fox thinking there might be some worthwhile commentary on the inaugural speech... instead I got Chuck Schumer toasting Plugs. After about 15 seconds, I decided it wasn’t worth watching.
No news better than Liberal Propaganda and Obama Butt Kissing. If I want real news I will click onto the Press in the UK or Pravda.
LOL
"The second inauguration of Ronald Reagan as the 40th President of the United States was held privately on January 20, 1985 and publicly on January 21, 1985. " - Wikipedia
Obama is actually the seventh president who has had an inauguration ceremony on a Monday when their term actually began over the weekend.
Yes, I watched The Smurfs instead of Dear Leader.
I had a Boy Scout Troop campout with my son this weekend and spent most of the day returning from the trip, so I got to miss out on all of the “fun”.
yes and worse - still shopping around for the best place to get the cataracts fixed.
