"After weeks of checking with charter bus companies, airlines and other sources, they're reassessing."

Probably, what they meant to say is that after buyers remorse has set in, America is reassessing...

I’m hoping that it will either be 33 degrees and a freezing rain all day or 3 degrees and bitter cold-we’ll then see how dedicated all of dear leader’s followers are.

Jawauna Greene, a spokeswoman for the Maryland Transit Administration, said that inaugural planning committees had initially considered up to 6 million attendees.

Come on...do jawauna ask us to believe this?

More media hysteria.

If the Inaugaration was in May, there would not be 4 million people attending.

The media threw a WAG number out there, knowing the media echo chamber would just repeat it ad nauseum. After all, the first rule of propaganda is, if you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth.

The four million number was a joke the moment it hit the press, and it was funny to see the other side hyperventilate about how much this means the Messiah is so loved and so popular that he will be adored by four million raging subjects.

The media should just restructure as the new Ministry of Propaganda.

The truth will be in short supply for the forseeable future.

Get ready for some Million Man Math.

However many people actually show up for this thing, we will be told, for the rest of our lives, that it was whatever the top estimate was, two days prior to the event.

The hype of the 10,000 man march.

Yep, America has been turned into a bunch of little squabling nations within, and now their fighting each other. It's all about groups and not a common cause.

That's "diversity" for ya

Is it wrong for me to hope for freezing rain and sleet?

Everybody knows the equation for new Democrat Presidents being sworn in:

# Attendees = (H * .5) + (W * .75) + S + P

Where...

It just may be possible that recent headlines are already having a halo-tarnishing effect.

Also, many less-affluent people are re-thinking if they can take the time off and afford the travel and hotel bills in light of the current situation.

Also, a significant portion of said fans may be unable to fight their way through the snowdrifts outside their doors or the ice on their streets and sidewalks...

Let’s get a pot going - will the Obamas walk any distance at all, and if so, how far, in blocks?

My bet: They will walk less than one block, if any at all. Mee-shell MaBell is terrified of an assassination, and she wears the pants in that family.

I’m in for one cyber-dollar.

They need rock bands and oceans of free beer to get the attendance up.

Free concert? Free food?

If not, the Obamites are the types that would make you leave your valuables at home if you're standing amongst them......

I think folks are paying attention to the recent increase in “global warming” and opting to stay home. They don’t want to risk getting sunburn.

Translation: The Obama gubmint debit cards to pay travel expenses for all the freeloaders are not going to be mailed on time.

"You don't expect us to attend the inauguration at our own expense, do you?"
