Obama's Inauguration Debacle

Barack Obama on the Economy:
"Clearly, the situation is dire. It is deteriorating, and it demands urgent and immediate action." — Jan. 9

"We start 2009 in the midst of a crisis unlike any we have seen in our lifetime, a crisis that has only deepened over the last few weeks." — Jan. 8, in a speech at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va.

"Right now, our economy is trapped in a vicious cycle: The turmoil on Wall Street means a new round of belt-tightening for families and businesses on Main Street, and as folks produce less and consume less, that just deepens the problems in our financial markets." — Nov. 24, at a news conference in Chicago where he announced members of his economic team. Belt tightening for WE but not for THEE.

"Bush declares a 'state of emergency' in Washington as cost of Obama's swearing-in ceremony soars to (about) 90 million" And that's a conservative estimate.

Disgusting.

Remember how the press rode Bush's ass like a rented mule during his last inauguration? And that's when the economy was SOARING. Once more, The messiah get's a pass.
