President-elect Barack Obama's inaugural committee today announced the theme of his swearing-in -- "Renewing America's Promise" -- and the preliminary schedule.

"At this moment of great challenge and great change, renewing the promise of America begins with renewing the idea that in America, we rise or fall as one nation and one people," Obama said in a statement. "That sense of unity and shared purpose is what this Inauguration will reflect."

Here's the preliminary schedule of official inaugural events:

Barack Obama inauguration festivities to span 4 days

Obama inauguration committee donor perk package

A fund-raising perk package for the official Obama Presidential Inauguration Committee -- for those giving $50,000 or raising $300,000 -- includes tickets to four days of parties, brunches, dinners and an inauguration night ball.

The PIC sent the perk package -- which does not have a formal guarantee for a ticket to the Jan. 20 swearing-in ceremony at the Capitol -- to President-elect Barack Obama's best fund-raisers Wednesday, with only weeks to raise at least $40 million to bankroll Obama inauguration festivities.

I think the theme should be “A Gathering of Village Idiots!”

Where is he getting all of this mumbo jumbo about NATIONAL UNITY? Someone should point him to Free Republic. Not everyone has sipped from the Obama Kool Aide cup!

Somebody please indict this guy or disqualify him or get him out of there. I can’t bear the thought of our country being taken over by a Marxist Muslim African thug - whom we elected all on our very own with the help of idiots like Oprah and a bunch of TV and movie nobodies. What a stupid people we are. I am still dumbfounded when I think of it.

we rise or fall as one nation and one people

"falling" wouldn't be an option to a true statesman.

“unity and shared purpose”

This is the same dribble that we have gotten from him already. He still wants to tout that we should become some sort of collective.

He should of been touting “unity and a shared purpose” before the elction and opposing the anti-American sentiments that were coming out of his political party if he was hoping for these principles but yet he wasn’t he was supporting the opposite.

...A celebration of the best darned President Elect this country has ever had!

I’d like to show up with my birth cert stapled to my clothes, and my loins girded...but I’ll stay home so as to not risk seeing Hillary in a dress.

Can one plan on crying,shedding tears in sadness for a atrocity so large,so evil,so corrupt and malignant?
I don’t know how to “plan” for tears but I know this:
they will flow freely on Jan.20th as I see my country being taken over by a who knows what who doesn’t know anything about anyone .
It’s not going to be a happy day for me.I’m praying tonight and as I have been that SCOTUS will find merit in Wrotnowski’s case submitted to them for conference .
What evil has been perpetrated by this fraud 0b0z0

He is not a bat. He is a freakin troll.

More like that big eared species that schemed for power and money on one of the star trek series.

Oh! think of all the poor that could be fed, or all the homeless that could be sheltered. How tacky with a worldwide depression going on. All the $hit that would be said if a republican had won. I HATE THE MEDIA.
