2. Oh that is too funny

Much bigger than they were expecting.

Not us, Fox, we knew that the place was going to be jammed.

4. The crowd analyses on Fox "News" are generally flawed.

Remember this one?

5. FAUX has been in denial that this many people would show up

for Obama vs their liar bu$h.

If I am going to get to see any of this, I will have to watch FAUX. I am at work and the company will be streaming the Inauguration in the cafeteria. It will be on FAUX news because my pet republican is the one who sets up the video when they do it in the cafeteria.

I can't stream at my desk, company rules.

6. There are millions of us who wish we could be there too.

Too bad 8 years of Bush have beat us down so much that we have lost our jobs and can barely afford to feed our children. I can barely afford to go anywhere. But, if I had more money, I would be there in a heartbeat.

9. Fox is hilarious this morning...

I turned it on a couple times, and the headline was "Bush Triumphs that Obama can learn from". Triumphs? And then I turned it back, and an anchor was complaining about the "adulation" and "over the topness that other networks are doing" (right....because Fox is the definition of subtle..) and "the angry left" this and that.

Eat it, suckers.

10. It's something to just climb out of bed and see tens of thousands walking in the freezing cold

in the early morning hours when the sun has just begun rising for this new day! Brrrrrr....

And CNN only shows Bono singing - he sucked - you could see he put absolutely no effort or enthusiasm into singing.

And now of all people Giuliano is the current guest. Maybe to thank God one more time for giving us Bush?

12. When does it start to sink in for these folks.....

..... and by "folks" I mean hard core rightwingers .... if SOOOO many people are excited about this .... and you have folks like Karl Rove and Pat Buchannan on TV talking about capable they think Barack is and what a decent person they know him to be ...... WHEN does one start to ask oneself, "perhaps I'm wrong?"

I dont get it.

16. It's what they do...

creating reality, managing perception. They're citing Reagan like 9/11. I can't wait for the video's and first-hand accounts.
