It amazes me that an adult at the top of the political pyramid is so immature to get butt hurt over the size of crowd that showed up.
Pretty sure D.C. is something like 80% black folk. Having the first black president is surely something to get stoked about if you are black, and if you live there, why not make the effort to go see the show. I wonder if there are crowd size records for all the inaugurations. I watched the young pope first two episodes. This reminds me of the second episode where the pope gets pissed because someone hit in a laser pointer.

Im pretty confident the next few days is setting the stage to effectively shutting down "media access". Im all for it in the current environment. Between press releases, Publicly accessible data, FOIA responses, live streamed events, and one on one interviews (and yes...twitter) the press really is the dialup internet method of getting information. We know more in real time then the press could ever package up and present. The current mindset of media in press conferences is that of militants (both sides of the media isle) and there is zero professionalism from either one. Neither really gives a damn what the answer is anyway, theyre going to report whatever their preconceived response was either way. Question: Did we send B52 Bombers to hit an ISIS target? Answer: Yes CNN under Obama: Obama authorizes successful airstrike removing 100 ISIS fighters in final days of his presidency. This act ensures that those who would commit terror will be addressed accordingly, even during the transition of power. Breitbart under Obama: Obama, the snake furthers military conflict day before leaving office, leaving all Americans at risk during a tumultuous time of transition. Kills 100, ensuring a retaliatory response. Had the same attack been authorized today: CNN under Trump: MILITARY FIASCO: Trump bombs random targets. Top military officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, refuse to verify there were no civilian casualties, at least 100 confirmed dead. War crime charges possible? Breitbart under Trump: God Emperor Trump authorized the removal of 100 ISIS top leaders in his first act as Commander in Chief. Rumors of ISIS surrender. Barack Obama potentially one of the dead operatives. On Sat, Jan 21, 2017 at 11:45 PM, Jeremy <[email protected]> wrote: I'm all for it. I think that everyone is probably just impressed by the first white house press briefing and the remarks at Langley. What an amazing public speaker this one is. Have you ever had a friend or friend's uncle or something who did too much meth? You know how they start out with one sentence and then before you know it they have told fifteen other stories before they ever get to the point...if they ever do??? We have four years of that to look forward to. Just watch the full speech at the CIA, you will see what I mean. Or don't....save yourself the pain.
