An Old Fashioned Inauguration

With Obama harking back to Lincoln, and the President and Vice President elect riding into Washington on a train, we can count on a real family-values inauguration, including:

- Gay orgies

- Fraternizing with the enemy

- Cult excess

I don't know about you, but I'll probably be watching old episodes of Cheyenne on the Western Channel while the inaugural hoopla is going on. How's about you?

  4. I won't be watching the Inauguration.

    "Pig sex"? How much do you have to hate yourself to indulge in something like that?

  6. I recently discovered the MLB channel. That and the Food Network will be very popular in my household for quite some time, I think.

  7. The MLB channel should be pretty good. It just started.

    I'll be starting my lame duck watch.
    Starting my count for the number of days before the Obama version of the "American Protective League".
    All this while being glued to my trading program on my computer.

  10. Paco, I just read the article at Bloomberg about comparisons of BarryO to President Lincoln. I am struck by two things.

    First, the similarities are starting to sound strained. The inauguration is three weeks before the anniversary of Lincoln's birth. Not exactly a planetary convergence, there. And the 'discord' among the population is NOTHING like it was during Lincoln's time, at least not YET.

    Second...President Lincoln was a thoughtful, humble man, a man who had overcome many REAL obstacles in his life to get where he was. He had an honesty about him that was bone deep, & showed in his writings. What do we have that's "comparable" from BarryO?

    Diddly.

  11. Plus, Lincoln was a rail splitter, whereas Barry O has always been a rail sitter.

  15. Unless things really go south here, I will be commemorating the inauguration in a two point moor in the channel in Saipan, removing dangers to navigation (a lot of coral heads have infiltrated the buoyed channel here). So at least one tiny corner of the feddle gubmint will be doing something constructive that day.

    TW: osesce. Haven't a clue, but it sounds vaguely unsavory.

  16. I'll be at work, carefully avoiding meetings and the news, unless we get a last minute reprieve due to the Ascension of The Mighty O!. Whereupon I'll hit the range to send high velocity lead hurtling towards innocent paper targets.
