This will be more of an in-auger-ation.

[glock rocks]

I suppose we’re paying for the farce...

Hell no, it's government money, silly.

[unixfox]

We can only hope for a major ice and snowstorm on the 20th.

Now that would be sweeet!!

[glock rocks]

the first black man to be president

No he isn't. He's the first half black man to be president.

Zero, the Halfrican.

Black, white, and red all over.

[Gondring]

You need to Photoshop the text — I clearly read “Stalin”...

Yes..quite clear. But, on the other hand, isn't that the translation of "Obama"?

[sionnsar]

Yup...

[dbacks]

“I suppose we’re paying for the farce...”

Remember how the MSM and dems screamed it to the rooftops how GWB was so damned extravagant with his simple inaugurations.

AND THIS ONE IS GOING TO BE, WHAT, 10x MORE $$?

[dbacks]

“It’s going to be a crazy few years. I hope this country survives.”

I saw 3-4 feature articles on FNS which showed envirowacos state as FACT that we cannot use any more fossil fuels, nuclear power and wind power.

I firmly believe the ZERO will ban all oil, nuke and coal power within 1 year of taking office. Right after banning guns and the armed taking thereof.

This country is doomed.

[kempo]

I don’t want anyone to get hurt but I think it would be funny if they had a snow storm during the proceedings.

[EDINVA]

and how about all those Kevlar jackets the libs were screaming about four years ago?

$150m

Taxpayer's money. But forget about it. Let's rather talk about Palin's RNC wardrobe.

[SolidWood]

How about blizzard and thunderstorm?

Obama's inauguration set to be the most expensive in US history.

Let me fix the title...

Your petty bourgeois concern for money is inconsequential to the Great Benefactor

[egannacht]

Is that like a Heffalump?

[jennyjenny]

Ah yes, mustn’t look bad to the rest of the world. Better to spend excessively while all the little, less important people of the world are struggling. That’s the message we should be sending. Change..........

[glock rocks]

Is that like a Heffalump?

I don't think so. Pooh never actually caught the heffalump stealing the honey out of the honeypot. We'll be able to watch, live on HDTV, for the next four years. Brace yerself!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

["Part of the spending includes emergency funding announced by the White House on Tuesday to help with the soaring costs."]

Looks like everybody's getting a bailout these days.

Obama's setting a great Leadership example here. Not.

[Madame Dufarge]

Idi Amin.

...toilets rimmed the entire mall...

How apropos...........
