Inauguration
I'll be watching - just in case.
Anyone offering odds on the assassination attempt?

Note
I said attempt.
There is no way a successful assassination could be allowed to take place.
However I never underestimate the stupidity of people and I reckon someone may try.

Why is it only the good leaders who snuff it in office?
Lincoln - shot
Kennedy - shot (okay, he was in with the Mafia but he's better than Dubya)
F D R - died in office

Meanwhile the most controversial President in history bumbles through eight years with nary a malevolent pretzel incident. And Blair managed to organise a world tour in celebration of how great he was when he finally took the hint and fucked off out of Number Ten.

Where the fuck was Guy Fawkes when his country needed him?

@PJM
as Bill Hicks said: 'But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. Jesus - murdered; Martin Luther King - murdered; Malcolm X - murdered; Gandhi - murdered; John Lennon - murdered; Reagan... wounded'

Have you people never seen 24?
They always pick up on forumn "chatter" about hour 6, which is useful because Jack's usually tortured all the witnesses to death by then.

Just watched him 'solemnly swear' his way in.
Clearly Dubya's elocution lessons paid off.

FUCK YEAH!
At long last, it's happened- one of MY generation is in charge!

That was one hell of a great speech.

Never before in my memory have I felt this happy about a new president.

Wow. Just wow. I've got goosebumps. Notable history was just made here, folks. It may not mean anywhere near as much to you over there as it does to me, but it's been a long time coming.

And, in case someone is monitoring this- Mr. Obama, good luck. You're going to need it. Even the slightest misstep will be magnified a thousandfold. Whatever you do, don't fuck up. You have far too many hopes riding on you. Good luck, my friend.
