Well duhhhhhhhhhh, that is because he didn’t win the election. It was fixed. Remmeber he couldn’t even draw a huge crowd during the campaign, so the admin and the MSM concocted excuses.

"There will be just two official inaugural balls this year, both at the Washington Convention Center, rather than 10 official balls at multiple locations around town."

Didn't DC Freepers have their own ball?

I think your gut instinct is the correct one.

“Weird..... These are strange times we live in. It begs the question: did he really win?...”

You know the answer to that...My cousin and I were talking last night about how elections are pointless in this country now.....If Palin ran and had 70 million he would have slipped by with 73 million.....

Don’t feel “stoopid.” There will be an official, albeit small, somewhat private swearing-in ceremony at the White House on 01/20, followed by the public sham on Monday.

Oh I would go. Only to spill drinks on the most pretentious arse holes I could find in attendance.

I’d probably get kicked out. Sounds like fun.

HA!

Obama has what they used to have in Chicago...vote producing machines in Cleveland, Philadelphia, St Lucie County, Madison, and Northern Virginia that get him however many votes he needs to take the swing states.

The guy couldn't fill a stadium but he got elected easily? Nice that the suck-ups in the MSM lack curiosity...

Those big bad corporations that underwrite much of the inaugural festivities expense have cut back. Some aren’t donating at all. Imagine that!

However, I would imagine every president who was re-elected had a lower turnout for the second. All of Reagan’s 2nd Inaugural events were canceled due to Arctic temps.

And it’s not new at all that the balls are all limited to a single venue. That started with W’s 2nd inaugural. All were at the convention center, wit the exception of the Military Ball that was at Union Station.

“Obama has what they used to have in Chicago...vote producing machines in Cleveland, Philadelphia, St Lucie County, Madison, and Northern Virginia that get him however many votes he needs to take the swing states....”

What can we do?...The opposition did not question the obvious fraud and they know they got away with it....We just wait until the time comes where you will actually have to make a personal decision to either fight or surrender....That truly is the only option honest freedom loving Americans are looking at.....

I assume it will be another Roberts ceremony sans Bible. Like last time.

I wouldn’t go to the Zer0 Syndicate’s inauguration ceremony for Zer0 even if it meant a rail car ride to a Death Camp. But, then that would mean I would never go when the third term comes up.
