Official Inaguration day thread
A core part of how we conduct our democracy. In this case, there is no transfer of power so maybe it doesn't have the panche but its still I think the most pomp and circumstance that we allow our self's to have in our democracy.

Crowd looks huge.

Where is George W Bush? Didn't see him introduced?

no joke. Do the GD inaguration in the Congress or something.

pointless, waste of money.
peanuts compared to the debt etc, but a waste nontheless.

uhhhh its all paid for with private donations. And every President does this, not just Obama. Don't get the reference here? You think Obama is the only one to do this?

But the sentiment is what I allured to in my OP. Americans just don't like pomp and circumstance, never have. Probably because the Brits were so full of it and we were going to be different.

To celebrate the peaceful and ordely transfer of power. It is a waste of money, but I think it is all privately funded. I do think they tone it down for a 2nd term--as they should.

I stand corrected. still doesn't mean it's still a waste of money, regardless of where it's coming from.

Probably have to look it up to verify, but I'm pretty sure the former presidents always attend unless there is a health issue.
