Did Obama swear in on the QURAN?

QUOTE (Soxy @ Jan 20, 2009 -> 09:41 PM) Why didn't Lowery get the invocation? His was at least not complete blather. Seriously this: ""REV LOWERY: Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get back, when brown can stick around -- (laughter) -- when yellow will be mellow -- (laughter) -- when the red man can get ahead, man -- (laughter) -- and when white will embrace what is right. Let all those who do justice and love mercy say amen. AUDIENCE: Amen! REV. LOWERY: Say amen -- AUDIENCE: Amen! REV. LOWERY: -- and amen. AUDIENCE: Amen!" Totally should have lead off.

I felt it was a pretty awful prayer, too. Especially compared to Lowerys.

Cadillac getting some nice advertising today, no?

CNN getting the most of their last moments with Sanjay Gupta.

Quite unfortunate.

I also adopted it.

You have some poor planning man!

You back already?

Obamas speeches are no longer just glittering generalities but flex some serious muscle.

Great speech. Although I'm not sure that history is against the side of highly oppressive gov'ts. They've been around a lot longer than democracies.

This just hit me like a ton of bricks. My God! Now, do work, Pres. Obama.

Yo Yo Ma is such a cool dude. His interview with colbert was one of the most natural i've ever seen. He was hitting him tit for tat. It was great. Phenomenal musician as well, I love his albums.

weird, off one of the rafters is a hanging camera, but to me it looked like a hanging teddy bear. I'm glad it's not, that would seem to be a poor omen.

Man, yo Yo ma got some pop when announced

Ha, I was kidding, I'm watching CNN on tv. Probably just a min. ahead of you.

Yeah obamas already been sworn in.

WOo Hoo, Aretha. edit: Her voice is still great.

eh, when there is that many I'm sure it's not even believable. Like how the ground looks when you are skydiving.

I'm surprised harry reid can stand so upright being that he has no spine.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Jan 20, 2009 -> 07:46 AM) Documentaries are separate like Fog of War. But yeah, Moore and Gore don't really hold much more water than Matthew Broderick. They are entertainers. 9 years ago I don't think I ever could have imagined someone describing Gore as an entertainer unless they were using sarcasm.

dave is always the best part for me.
