We think they’re singing “Hey Hey, Goodbye” to George W. Bush. I think that’s just rude.
Inauguration day drinking game: take a shot each time the commentators say “peaceful transfer of power.”
There’s Dick Cheney. I wonder if anyone will take that image as symbolism?
They were. It was. I was kind of surprised at how restrained they were. I was expecting a chorus of boos.
Wait, they’re just walking out now.
Who wants to bet on how long the cheering will last when Obama comes out? I’m guessing two minutes.
They ARE booing Bush. That’s bad form.
It may just be me, but the chants and such creep me out a bit. If for no other reason than a mob can change its mind.
I wish, but it’s only 8AM.
Maybe a little, but remember that they’re cold, bitter, and bored. They’ll soon be cheering, anyway.
All of my streams are dead (npr, cnn, and msnbs are failing me.) Does anyone have any suggestions for other places? Just audio is okay.
there are some very colourful scarves on everyone. nice to see the men wearing something other than black.
I hear it now. Yeah, it’s kinda rude. Hold on. Let me get a ruling on that.
Predictably, nobody’s picking up their phone.
NPR is doing live coverage until 2:00.
Never mind. Just read the parenthetical part.
I was going to say something snarky about W but I think I’ll give it a rest today. I’m in too good a mood, and I think it would ruin the moment to get too partisan today. I think I just want to be an American right now.
Can you get a feed from a local public station. Most of them webcast.
The sailors, airmen, marines and soldiers (along with the police) look incredible in their dress blues.
(sorry, but with all the attention on Mrs. Obama’s outfit I had to throw that one out there)
there he is! he is moving up.
Looks like Obama is starting to feel the weight on his shoulders.
Where did they get the announcer from? Sounds like he should be saying
SUNDAY, SUNDAY SUNDAY at raceway park
Hulu.com is streaming it.
Here he comes!
Wait until Obama comes out. That’ll stop it.
