in Inauguration Day Open Thread #4: Inaugural Ball Edition on Jack and Jill Politics
I just flipped over to FoxNews real quick and Geraldo Riviera just said people don't realize how much the troops love President Obama....then he said he's NEVER seen a crowd as diverse as the ones he's seen today. LOVE IT...then they switched to this other anchor who mentioned since Kanye West was performing in the background before, that she was sorry they had to switch from that because she loves the song Kanye was performing.
Where the hell am I? Am I in some freaky parellel universe?

LOL! When we see Sean Khlannity and Rush Limpballs rol up in the house gangsta style you'll be in an alternate universe.

yeah...they must have just started with that...because earlier they couldn't stop talking about how the troops just loooooooooooooooved bush! maybe they will come along with the rest of us instead of in their parallel universe.

When I heard he was performing I said a quick silent prayer that he would
not do his verse off of My President is Black. I guess I under estimated the
man. Also, I was hating on Beyonce before, I'll admit it. I don't like her
radio version of At Last but she did the song justice tonight. She showed
emotion too. Beautiful! just beautiful!

ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- Ann Nixon Cooper craned her neck and leaned her head forward. On the television set across the room, Barack Obama moved forward and put his hand on the Bible.
Ann Nixon Cooper, 107, watched the inauguration from her Atlanta home: "I'm most excited."
At 107 years old, Cooper said she always believed she might live to see a black man sworn in as president of the United States.
"I had that in mind all the time -- all the time -- hoping for a great change that would happen in my day," she said, a charm necklace with a gold "107" around her neck.
"I was hoping that it would happen in my time."
This moment in history, she said, marks one of the greatest days of her event-filled life.
"I'm most excited about it ... just nothing but the greatest," she said, a wide smile spread across her face. "Our new president means nothing but more freedom as a human being. That's all. That's all it could mean to us. You feel more like a real person.

Miranda I was screaming too!
I was thinking "is there not an adult that reviews their routines".
I almost posted a similar comment . I was not sure if I was just being overly sensitive in my criticism. We all know how Black women can be portrayed as being oversexualized.
I need a nap.

Rev. Wright Speaks At Howard University
A year after then-candidate Barack Obama distanced himself from his controversial longtime pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright thrilled hundreds of churchgoers this morning in Washington, giving a sermon holding up Obama as a spiritual symbol of possibility.
People waited two hours to hear Wright preach the Sunday service at Howard University's Crampton Auditorium, a high-profile platform for clergy, black clergy in particular. Wright has preached the service, run by the school's Rankin Chapel, on the Sunday before Martin Luther King Day for the past five years and was booked months before the election, school officials said.
Howard students, alumnae and notables such as opera singer Jessye Norman and Morehouse College President Robert Michael Franklin Jr. attended the service, which overflowed into two other buildings. They came to see a man whose relationship with Obama became explosive, both among those who saw his words as racist and anti-American rhetoric and those livid with Obama for distancing himself from someone they saw as simply speaking truths about racism and war.
Wright was nothing but positive and conciliatory today, rousing churchgoers again and again to their feet with a sermon about what he called the Bible's message of self-reliance and encouragement.

My hometown is right at the tip of what is the Black Belt in Alabama. The schools are primarily segregated save for a few schools along that western part of Alabama....and one of the schools that is actually predominately white...will be taking a busload of kids to the inauguration. I say that to say this.....if a busload of people from Pickens County Alabama, mostly white, will be converging on DC for the inauguration of Barack Hussein Obama, then let there be no DOUBT that there will be the projected number, if not MORE than anticipated in DC this Tuesday.

I really believe something is mentally wrong with Tavis at this point. He's had a breakdown and is masking it.

i read one of his books and he described being beaten by his stepfather mercilessly as a child--once to the point of hospitalisation. i'm not certain that he ever recovered from that. i think the severe abuse, coupled with his deep roots in 'holiness' churches, warped him.

He was always a jacka*s. He just hid it.
