I know I'm just echoing everyone else, but I need to vent a little about this whole thing. I can't think of anything tackier than spending an exorbitant. amount of money to celebrate a victory that was narrowly won AT BEST. I would think that someone who probably cheated his way into office would be quiet and gracious, especially when we're at war and a significant number of people in the world are still reeling from a natural disaster, the likes of which we have never experienced. But no, not W. Nothing's too extravagant for God's Chosen King of America. He's not only having a grand inauguration, but the most expensive one in history. He's just adding insult to injury for those of us who don't support him. I feel bad for DC having to pay for this hoopla, especially since a majority of people there didn't even vote for Bush.
