    Nice show of excess...

    The dems attack the repubs all day and night for the state of the economy, fiscal irresponsibility, etc. etc. etc. So how does the new administration begin? Not only are they throwing the most expensive inauguration EVER, but it is more expensive than any other by 3x. Thats right, 3 TIMES!!! This is further proof of the hipocricy and idiocy of our government and those running it.

    Just ask NBC, Anne Curry, and all the inspirational music playing in the background. This group is the most pathetically hypocritical bunch of "journalists" the world has ever seen.

    I haven't bothered watching any news lately, and prolly won't for a week or so. If Tebowgasm wasn't bad enough, now we have Obamagasm to live through.

    I would say the same thing if Mccain were doing this, the government is "preaching" smarter spending, not buying stuff you cant afford, etc and then they go out and do the exact opposite

    You might want to point out that inaugural celebrations are not funded with taxpayers' dollars. The inaugural committee raises the money through private donations.

    Re: Nice show of excess...

    You do realise this is the Executive Branch your talking about and it's the most Powerful Branch in the World...and now that there is someone different in there...your calling BS?

    Now if your going to start calling BS on excess...I think having a 2nd Inauguration for a sitting Prez ranks right near the top IMO.

    Get that stopped the next time it happens and I'll go along with you on breaking from tradition on a First Inauguration.

    It appears the free market has decided that Obama's inauguration is worth three times that of Bush's. Why don't you move back to Moscow, you treasonous commie?

    Ahh... but the left are always good sports.

    See Movies such as Recount, Farenheit 9/11, or W.

    Then, of course, there is the perfect example of class in the website moveon.org.




    I will pray for this President and wish nothing but success for his administration, but the media never took this type of approach for a presidential inauguration until now. It's obvious they are agenda driven and it's sad that no one can be trusted. I have yet to find an unbiased media outlet, and yes this includes the Right Wing operations of Rupert Murdock.

    I challenge journalists out there to at least make an effort to suppress bias.

    Not when it involves the gov't.....that includes BOTH parties. Both parties are equal opportunity whores.

    ...and I'm sure that those people will not be expecting "something" for their "donations"

    Hey, if we don't overspend on the inauguration, the recession wins.

    Yeah, nothing wrong with having a $150 Million party in the middle of an economic meltdown.
