What others are saying
- Inaugural billHow much is this inaugural program going to cost the tax payers? Instead of paying for this show, how about using the funds to bail someone out of their financial woes.
- Inaugural programWhy isn't The Reverend Wright part of the program? If he did the Benediction, He could really start the Obama presidency off with a BANG!!!!
