Some Question Regarding Obama and the Inauguration
Posted: Wed Jan 21, 2009 6:44 pm
I know that a good number of the brethren here at Hogs.net are DC-area
residents. I know that a number of us are pretty good analysts and up-to-speed on what goes on over there in Washington.
Here are a few honest questions from a lower middle-class PA resident who's hoping for a few simple answers, if possible.
1.) Who paid for the five day inauguration?
2.) Are we celebrating a new presidency or a black presidency?
3.) Is it a double standard to announce and run colorless candidacy, asking voters not to cast their vote for the ethnicity/gender of the candidate, but on whether the voter believes the candidate has a snowballs chance of making a difference...and then have a five day, heavily themed blowout celebration when the "colorless"candidate wins?
4.) Can comparisions between Lincoln and Obama be valid before he serves a week in office?
5.) Have we, as a nation, condemned this man to death by electing him?
