    Will recession mean a toned-down inauguration?

    WASHINGTON – Unemployment is on the rise. The stock market is in the tank. Is this any time for a party? For the sake of the masses of people expected for President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration, let's hope so. While Obama must be sensitive to the nation's time of war and recession, there's still reason to expect a rollicking time....
    Would he of the Greek columns and $35k ring have a 'toned down' inauguration? I don't think so...

    Obama is willing to spend as much of others peoples money as needed to satistify the demand of his inaugration and his ego


    How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

    But, BUT.... "his people"who voted for him would want him to spend all that money on his HISTORIC WIN..

    here's hoping for rain and snow that day, since you're not allowed to take umbrellas.....
    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."
    Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC)
