After we left the hate filled church group, we went to the Mall to see W get sworn in.  I could not believe the sheer quantity of supporters.  Who are these people?  Where did they come from?  What the fuck is wrong with them?  It was impossible to get anywhere near the capital, so they had these huge 1984 jumbo-tron screens with speakers all around so that you could see Him and hear Him without a problem.  Listening to W speak in person is just as funny as on TV, and just as unbearable.  After he called September 11th ”The Day of Fire”  we had had enough.   Not much happened in between the inauguration and the parade.  It was filled with mostly just lame protest chants and cold feet.  I wish the chants would have a little more heart than “Hey hey, ho ho, George Bush has to go” and “What do we want? Freedom!  When do we want it? Now!”  I kept suggesting “Bush is a dick, Cheney is too!”   As all great leaders have learned to do, along with great bands, not so great bands, and so so speakers, Mr. Bush was late.  Much to his dismay, the protesters waited out the cold.  And just when you thought he wasn’t going to show, our fearless leader did, in a cavalcade of limousines and SS troops, err, sorry, that’s Secret Service.  And, as all fearless leaders do, he went speeding by at forty miles an hour.  It’s good to know that a man who can talk so tough when he is armed with history’s strongest military is too afraid to even stick his hand out of his fortified limousine.
