Whoever is behind this weather is obviously conspiring to keep people at home to watch the inauguration with their families. #
I’m proud of all my friends (all of YOU) braving DC today, but I am so, so glad I’m not there myself. Bring back a souveneir for el jefe! #
I still can’t decide if I’m happier about the end of the Bush era or the beginning of the Obama era. #
Now ensconced on the sofa consuming C-SPAN & NPR. @BrianR is popping the champagne and even el jefe will have a ittle (through me). #inau09 #
@msfour Given your choices I would definitely pick MSNBC. in reply to msfour #
Michelle looks resplendent (as usual). Cheney looks even more decrepit and sinister than usual. #inaug09 #
Michele Obama is the Queen of America! #inaug09 #
Has a sitting president even been booed at the inauguration before? This might be a first. #inaug09 #
Retweeting @jonstahl: OMG, cheney as dr. strangelove. how appropriate. thanks, @hayduke! #
Barack Obama is Zen Master of America! #inaug09 #
One *very* evil kitty trying to ruin our family’s inauguration. And Rick Warren’s not helping either. #
“And Miss Aretha Franklin, the First Lady, Are you out there, CC?” #inaug09 #
Quick someone arrest Dick Cheney, his personal branch of government is no more! #inaug09 #
How is there time for a song? It’s already noon, Bush’s term is over! #inaug09 #
@ monicacarolevans Were you serious about Warren’s prayer? You know he thinks you should be a second-class citizen, right? #
Um, does anyone know the lines? #inaug09 #
This just became a better nation. #inaug09 #
Retweeting @dsearls: Wow. Check out http://whitehouse.gov. Change has come. Here’s the blog: http://tinyurl.com/6tdmhy #
Ditto. Retweeting @sarahfelicity: I don’t think I’ll ever really get behind the “WE WILL DEFEAT YOU” line of discussion. #
Am I (a Buddhist) a nonbeliever? What about pagans, shamans, shinto, etc. #inaug09 We’re all Americans, too. #
@tuckcomatus …which is why naming specific religions or faiths is always problematic if you actually want to be inclusive. in reply to tuckcomatus #
Take us home Dr. Lowry! #inaug09 #
Is he quoting the Black National Anthem? Awesome! #inaug09 #
AMEN! #inaug09 #
@andrew_dunn Much of Lowery’s prayer was from the Black National Anthem, the Bible, and civil rights movement slogans. in reply to andrew_dunn #
@monicacarolevans You need to catch up, I suggest http://pamshouseblend.com #
To all with champagne in hand: L’CHAIM! #inaug09 #
Retweeting @FORpeace: Happy inauaguration, everyone! You know we have a lot of work to do, peace lovers. #
Was kind of hoping there’d be handcuffs waiting for Bush instead of a Presidential helicopter. #inaug09 #
@jayrosen_nyu Emphasis on the *sort of.* No comments. No author name! Glad they have RSS, though. in reply to jayrosen_nyu #
Woo hoo! @BrianR and I are now the proud owners of a 2004 Toyota Matrix! Sucky thing is, the weather’s too crappy to drive it today. 🙁 #
@ayse It’s a date! Meanwhile have anoher mimosa for me. 🙂 in reply to ayse #
Now following @whitehouse_gov. Thanks, @dcm. #
Props to Brattleboro (VT) HS Marching band for playing “We Shall Overcome!” #inaug09 #
@lisawilliams 2WD. It’s an XRS with an absurdly powerful engine. Definitely more hp than I need. No need for AWD here. in reply to lisawilliams #
@lisawilliams That’s the idea. We needed four doors for the car seat we plan to be suing in about 2 months! Next: selling my Honda Civic. in reply to lisawilliams #
Loving the “Marching Musical Machine of the Mid-South.” Ain’t no stopping us now, y’all. #inaug09 #
Err, a few tweets back I said “suing” when I meant to write “using.” Big difference! Sorry. #
@skeskali Prolly for the same reason as the rivalry between NC A&T and NC Central… in reply to skeskali #
OMG, there’s a Lesbian and Gay Band Association! And as they’re fabulous, wouldn’t ya know. #inaug09 #
Retweeting @mistersugar: We’ve been watching the parade, thinking, “Why is the world’s most powerful person being held hostage? #
