Apparently they're due to attend 10 functions tonight.
Or 7? A lot, anyway.

Hexx - you can probably agree that this is cringeworthy. http://news.yahoo.com/s/politico/200812 ... tico/16693

In what way?

It's just an example of how Obama's all about change/hope, until he needs to go "old school" to appeal to the "right" voters and avoid making too big political waves

I bet he isn't eating Abortion Donuts either

To reach a wider audience, they should have made Keifer Sutherland a special guest, just to stand there and be serious. And I'd love it if Obama just went up and said "Caaan you dig iiiiiit?" over and over again.

She sounds a bit funny.

Talk about a load of nonsense. I'll bet any non-christians in the audience were fairly pissed off, there.

Whatever happened to the seperation of religion and the state?

What was with all that prayer nonsense?

I think it's Obama's concession to the right. To appear inclusive to everyone.

But yeah, so much for separation of Church and State.

That singing was like something out of South Park. :lol:

Eh, it's just a tradition. Did go on a bit.

What happens if Obama's head is shot live on telly?

Baiden looks like an old Steven Segal

He'll probably die Lewis.

O, there's a lot more to that. Presumably, as a compensation for this, Obama had Gene Robinson speak out a prayer at the inauguration concert yesterday. Robinson is the first openly gay, not celibate bishop in the US. The whole concert was on HBO TV... except this prayer at the opening. HBO said this was instructed by the Obama team. Try googling "Gene Robinson" and HBO. I was surprised at the number of hits.

What this ceremony needs more than anything is rick roll, just about now.

Men kissing men.

Funny how the Pastor was all for equality yet would have gays burnt in hell at the drop of a hat. :lol:

I think this has always been part of this. And the division of Church/State in America has always been a bit...iffy. FFS doesn't the Dollar bill say "One nation under God" on it? :lol:

Edit - Yes Dandy, I'd seen that.

A Bible?! A Bible?! Disgusting!

I thought it was one of the Bee Gees.

And that prayer rattled on for what seemed like an eternity. i thought the pastor was going to jizz all over the place.

The BBC needs to tell its commentators to STFU.

Boooooooring
