Thanks Jane, I think I’ll work in the greenhouse and garden that way I’ll feel clean. I think this is a slap to the legacy of MLK. Then again this could be a fun drinking game on how many times 0 says. I’ll leave the list up to other commenter’s.

Found on twitter – List of children killed by drone strikes in Pakistan and Yemen.

That is very hard to read, Kris. Thanks for that. A lot longer than I imagined.

I read it aloud when I found it a bit ago. It was very difficult to do, but I think adds some important perspective to exactly what we’re seeing celebrated today in Washington.

Jane, let me add that the DC metro system has put an addendum on its website on how to get around (including a map showing the temporary deadends for the city bus routes), for those who happen to be in town and want to be part of the 800,000, or, as in my case, want to avoid the thing like the plague.

a list of one is too much for me.

Callous indifference to dead human beings is number one requirement to being sworn in.

What odds that CBS (wasn’t it Coppell?) read the names aloud for an entire program, as they did with Iraq dead (American military only, of course) when they’d reached about 1000?

Yes, the odds are zero.

Thanks, I’ll put it in the post.

Yep, pretty F*&^$$$ sad isn’t it. I wonder how many will die today from drones.

Oh well warm enough to go outside.

is it just me or was O’s speech all over the map with buzz words — sorta like a lapel flag pin in words . . .

From Aretha to Beyonce–the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce. Will Beyonce pause for a Pepsi commercial, in medias res?

O speaks that our founders found this country on equality among men , it takes a special psychopathy to get up and say this with his record on human rights ,not prosecuting anybody on wall street , going after whistle blowers and his shameful drone war, and violation of our privacy rights. That’s terrible about the list of children, I’m a Vietnam veteran, that list really hits home with me….

That was nice. Now Fox has lots of crowd photos to use when reporting on Tea Party rallies next July.

CBS is saying this was mostly a civil rights speech, this time for gays.

What if there was an inauguration and nobody came?

Maybe O put a moratorium in place in honor of his inaugaration for this day.

(after all John Brennan, O, and others do their dispositional matrix early on Tuesday mornings. :(

Affirming the right of the LGBT community to be wiretapped/assassinated with no due process?/s

Do I have to listen to it? Can’t I just take your word for it? I trust you.

And, they’ll show lots of minotirites as members too.

Let’s give credit where credit is due./s

2 suspected militants were killed in a drone strike this morning. I expect Kevin will write about it.

So, by 8 AM tomorrow, all the hung over public and elected officials should be back , hard at work, sticking it up our collective asses?
