How ironic. A lot fewer people also voted for him than were actually recorded.

The DC streets are empty. It’s a turnout debacle. Where are all of Hussein’s supporters?

If one snowflake falls near D.C. during the Second Immaculation, the Obamedia will blame the “blizzard” for the smaller crowd. With the government employees off today on another paid holiday, one would think at least a million warm bodies could turn out.

I look at it this way....each of these suckers probably voted 3 or 4 times, so it’s not a 500,000 crowd...it’s 1.5-2.0M crowd....just like last time...

Yeah, he won.....just like that..

Why would anyone want to hang out with the trash that shows up at Obama events? Brainwashed students, DC beltway bandits, government employee, unions, crazy women, minorities wanting more handouts, etc.

I visited DC last year and stopped at Ben’s Chili Bowl. Nothing special (smoked sausages topped with chili that a Texan would turn his/her nose up at). Ben says that Obama and his family can eats for free (Ben is black).

there is ZERO compelling reason to not have done the full blown inaguration on the 20th. The two-fer by obama is a 130 million dollar waste designed to give government employees one more day off.

Monday would have been hangover day.

Darn, I wish there was a law that required voters to be present at a coronation when their choice won. That would be one way to do a recount. If the number is smaller than the actual votes, then the loosing candidate becomes President.

expect between 500,000 and 700,000 people to attend...

By my count, the number of people is probably more like less than 1000. And that's only because they are forced, generally as a requirement of employment, to be there.

I do expect somewhere between 499,000 and 699,000 drones and zombies and various forms of sycophants to attend as well, though.

hussein’s supporters don’t care about Hussein or his speeches. They are at home still asleep dreaming of their free stuff and sticking it to the “rich” that’s all they really care about.

A friend was watching the Jacksonville (FL) news and it showed crowds who were entirely black boarding the train yesterday to go to DC. I would assume a lot of their tickets were being paid for by their various “churches,” which are essentially nothing but channels used for funneling campaign money out to buy votes.

Obama stole the election!!! His campaign rallies were terrible with half empty high school gyms. Obama has “Lame Duck” posted on his head. The Republicans better wise up and do this imposter, America hater in politically!!! This inauguration is an insult to our great country. No one is watching, his poll numbers stink, and he caters to only those with their hand out for freebies. Sad!!!

Just checked the ucam or whatever it is. Appears to be trillions of fans there. NOT! We had a better turn out at the Gun Appreciation rally in Carson City this past weekend. And unlike these clowns in dc, they all love the constitution and bill of rights. No mess to clean up either. At least the trash will be less for the union sanitation workers to clean up after the slobs leave the mall. And the crowds too.

Molon labe.

Look like the old trick of free cell phones,booze and weed isn’t working this time.
No matter the MSM will say the turn out was in the millions.
Photo shop expected.
