mouse...I notice that your buddy Obama has done a complete turn around from his first inauguration. In 2009 he banned corporate sponsorship and limited donations for the event. Now at this coming coronation he is hitting up all the corporate sponsors and donors he can get with no limits. But he will pay them back with lots of "gifts" in the next few years. More Obamacare exemptions, tax breaks, etc. So come and get all the freebies you want off this huckster. He is up for sale.

Why stand out in the cold and listen to the 2008 speech all over again. Obama will offer nothing new. His SOTU in Feb will offer nothing new. So no, won't be going to the D.C. Fiasco.

I wouldn't waste my time watching such a sorry spectacle. This president is on his way to bring down our once great country and anyone with an ounce of common sense should be able to see that. Those who voted for this Socialist are about to get exactly what they deserve. The trouble is, so are the other 50% of us who didn't vote for this "community organizer".

I volunteer to attend on behalf of the Gazette, if they give me press credentials that will let me take my Glock on the flight to and from D.C. and wear it at the ceremonies. I hear the crime rate in Washington is pretty bad.

"Are you planning to attend the 57th inaugural ceremonies?"

Funny you should ask, why no, no I am not going to do that. Why on Earth would I want to do that? Why would I want to waste my hard earned money to go to that s******* of a city to see something of that nature? But thanks for asking.

Sounds like the gazette has nothing to report and has to send out surveys to post on their headlines.

Obama only won by default. Look at what he was running against! Mitt Romney was both for and against every issue that was asked of him.

Obama bought the election with the amount of people on welfare. Now I have to learn how to speak Walmart so I can communicate effectively in our country.

The election is over and the majority of voters re-elected President Obama. The Electoral College has done their thing and it is time to move on. Are you going to cry and complain for another 4 years? Leave your bitterness behind. Try working together with your fellow Americans to help OUR country prosper again. Divisiveness does not work.

NVgrf, actually we all lost with this clown as a President and these equally idiotic members of Congress, drop the partisan blinders and use your brain and see that supporting failure does nobody any good except for keeping score I guess in your mind.
