My Feelings on the Presidential Inauguration.

So, the economy’s on the verge of collapse, a chunk of the population will probably be left on the street over the next few years while the banks use their billion-dollar handout to save their own asses, the auto industry is heading for a brick wall, there’s a couple of quagmire wars to squirm out of, the country’s international credibility is in the shitter, the constitution has been left like a Swiss cheese by the previous administration, a big change has been promised and someone’s going to have to deliver before the People’s patience runs out…the future is decidedly bleak.

So what should we do?

LETS HAVE A BIG PARTY AND FEEL GOOD ABOUT OURSELVES FOR A WHILE!

Does mere relief justify such a feeling of jubilance? I’m afraid Mr. President, the hangover will begin on January 21st and is going to last for the next four years.
