CNN Reports Inagural Like It's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade!
Did I really just hear Wolf Blitzer comment on Laura's outfit?!

By the way, I am making a note of all the singers/performers at this joke of an event to be certain I never buy anything they produce!

You gotta love that their are all freezing their rightwing asses off now (those desperados who actually showed up anyway). Bush's turnout is nothing to brag about. Even the CNN crew opted to do a indoor remote than be outside in the cold. HA!

Maybe frostbite will shorten our national misery.

7. What about the barrage baloons?


I understand they will be deployed as part of the anti-terrorist air attack defense.

8. Love
Gary sinise!! Ryan Seacrest is the Emcee. Bruce Willis is there. Temptations are playing. Gatlin Brothers are playing. Angie Harmon and Eric Seahorn are there. I know she's from Law and Order but who's he?? It all has a tackiness to it, doesn't it?? I'll have to watch the temptations though.

13. Sinise?! OMG--I had NO idea!
Won't watch a damn thing he does from here on.

I'm surprised about Seacrest, too. I've never liked him, but I am surprised--maybe that's why his crappy show got cancelled.

I can't bring myself to dislike Bruce though--help me, someone please. Must--be---strong----no more----B-r-u-c-e....

(sigh)
:(

4. On AAR there's an NBC coverage ad and the tone turns my stomach!
How can you bear CNN is beyond me!

6. If Kerry were being sworn in tomorrow, would they make as big a deal?
They'd be reminiscing about the last four years.

9. Of course it
would be! It obviously wouldn't be about his last 4 years but come on people. You can say what you want about Teresa Heinz Kerry but I've heard that she knows how to throw a great party! There would be better celebrities too. It would be more hopeful and exciting.

11. Exactly Right
Ted Turner regrets his decision to sell CNN more and more every day. It used to be a leader in journalism. I've blocked it from my satellite channel selection.
