Second thoughts about attending the inauguration? Try the TV
If the prospect of walking for miles in icy temperatures and heavy security is giving you second thoughts about attending the inauguration, Barack Obama has a suggestion.
Watch it on TV.
Or the Internet.
Or better yet, organize an inaugural ball in your neighborhood.
“You’ve probably heard the reports that unprecedented numbers of Americans are planning to join us in Washington,” Obama said Wednesday in a statement released by Presidential Inaugural Committee 2009.
“That will mean long lines, a tough time getting around, and most of all, a lot of walking on what could be a very cold winter day,” Obama warned.
“Fortunately, you don’t have to brave the crowds and commotion in order to participate in this celebration — because we’ve made this inauguration open and accessible to communities across our nation.”
you are correct tc there is so much hypocrisy around it has reached such a crescendo perhaps we should invent a new word to celebrate the levels the dems are achieving.how about,obamacracy.their greatest achievement is to express their concern about the economy, when they have spent two years trying to talk it down to help their political cause.
