This is the most ridiculous thing in the 21st century!!! Whoever heard of celebration in order even before things get accomplished????

Too much hype around Obama these days seriously worries me!!! So what if he is black??? Technically he is only 1/2 black thanks to his unconventional mother! !! Can he deliver the goods is what matters!!! The cost of the Inauguration is ridiculous high compare to the previous two presidents, especially during these difficult times!!! Now is not the time to celebrate, but the time to buckle up!!! If he can''t fix the our problems, he will go down in disgrace faster than Britney Spears!!!

The main reason I voted for Obama was that he is asking us (U.S.) to take responsibility.

-Really? So is that why he promises you a bunch of free stuff?

Get a clue. Obama is for big government control and power, not personal responsibility.

You need to wake up before it''s too late.

Let this be OUR INAUGURATION AS A RESILIENT PEOPLE!
The main reason I voted for Obama was that he is asking us (U.S.) to take responsibility. No more whiners, slackers, and complainers.....from any party or affiliation. We need to shift this pervasive negativism into a positive resiliency.
Ya know, when he gets up there to take the oath of office, I''''m gonna put myself there...and we all should. We should all see ourselves placing our hand on that bible (or whatever you believe in) and promise to strive to be resilient as an individual, as a family, as a community, and as a country. A resilient person is problem-solving, patriotic, into wellness of body and mind, caring and ethical, service and community-minded, courageous in the face of crisis or terrorists, and has a positive can-do attitude. A resilient person would be a frugal and energy conservation minded not because it%u2019s the latest green fad but because it%u2019s wise and efficient and part of their lifestyle. A resilient person has an understanding of their civic responsibility - they participate in our government and THEY VOTE. A resilient person would not spend their time complaining about the faults of other people but would spend their time getting the job done. Let%u2019s really strive for the highest ideals of this country. Let''''s do it.

You make some very good points. Continue to utilize that thing liberals hate most, FREEDOM OF SPEECH FOR ALL, including those who oppose their radical totalitarian agenda.

[truthin2009]

Liberals have been in the "business of selling Barak OBama" ever since he first announced his campaign for President.

And boy oh boy, have millions of people bought into the bait.

This headlines says it all. Are we talkin'' about the new commander-in-chief or this year''s American Idol winner?
