Not my opinion. That is the opinion over at the uber-leftist FireDogLake blog.
So, I don’t even know how to write about this without it sounding like bitter grousing, and frankly, I’m a little embarrassed to have to report that after five hours of standing in the bitter cold, getting pushed and shoved to the point where you start to feel for your safety, and being herded to and fro, the most I can report about the inauguration is that the 21-gun salute is really loud.
…..
The lines for the Purple Tickets and the lines for the Yellow Tickets crisscrossed at numerous points causing every bit of the road-blocking mayhem you would imagine.
Over the next 90 minutes, I traced a circle with a diameter of no more than 20 feet. We then came to a stop just outside a fence within within full view of the metal detectors and the uniforms that were staffing them.
And, there I stood. I stood next to women from Florida who had saved for months to make this trip. I stood next to a woman separated by the crowd from her husband. I stood next to people who had been standing in that same spot since 5am. . . since, in one case, 3am.
And it gets funnier from there.
So, from this day forward, unless they start rounding people up to put them in camps, there will be no comparing the Democrats or the government of DC to the German National Socialist Party. Because unlike these freaks, the Nazis would have had a crowd control plan that worked.
Didn’t watch it. Didn’t care. Read the speech while eating lunch at work last night. Obama basically insulted half of America with his well-speechified, though uninspiring, drivel.
Just who was he asking to set aside their “childish things”? It certainly wasn’t anyone I know.
So now, our long national nightmare has begun.
There is a hoopla currently bubbling over Limbaugh stating that he hopes Obama’s liberalism fails. Folks are purposely ignoring the context of his statement and blaring about how he said he hopes America fails under Obama.
I too have been mistook in this regard.
I have a long list of Obama ideas I hope fail so that America can succeed. My topmost one is this
Obama and Biden would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent.
I hope he fails so hard on this that his balls hurt afterwards.
