HAPPY NEW PRESIDENT DAY

[lishesquex]

Watching the inauguration, I laughed (out loud) at these three bits:

1) George W. Bush getting booed as he emerged.
2) Rick Warren (the reverend dude) sounding completely ridiculous and over the top. Was it just my atheist sensibilities or did he really sound that stupid?
3) The poem. And especially the. Way. It was. Being read like. This. (It wouldn't have been so bad if it hadn't been read right after Obama's speech, which was about 100 times more poetic.)

I listened for like a minute..and then i was embarrassed and uncomfortable cos the reading wasn't good enough to follow a speech like she had to. I'm sure the poem will be very nice in print. But i had to mute it, lol.

I felt embarrassed for her too, lol. I tuned out after a while but I heard snatches of it that just made me giggle. Like the bit that went: "And we will repair... what needs to be repaired" But all solemn-like, with the pause in the middle. *shakes head*
