Well , i believe Paul the 6th was the one who posted the election events first a while back and i thought it would only be fitting to post the inauguration news (i'm hooked on Honda but who knows Suzuki may be in the future)

The new Messiah is with us!
Anyone else think the whole business is somewhat hyped? I'm not saying for a moment that it isn't an important event, and I wish President Obama and the American people every success, simply that there is an awful lot of expectation to fulfil, expectation that simply doesn't seem realistic.
Hes not the messiah, just a very naughty boy! (There someone had to say it!)
A tad over hyped, but at least they have a sense of occasion. Us when we vote in another numpty in to No10, we vote, go to bed, wake up and its done! No ceromony or anything!

No... but I think this is down to the apparent obsession with fame in America? :confused:
I feel a great sense of relief.......
Mind you, I felt the same when Tony Blair got elected. What a disappointment that proved to be.
All the same, good look to you, Mr President.

good comparison there Mr Jabbo. after 8 years of George Dubblya its likely if they voted in Bubbles the Chimp there'd be street parties and millions turning up to watch him pour tea or carry a piano down the stairs...
that said, he's talked the talk. now its time for action. he's stopped all trials in Guantanamo as his first task...lets see him tackle the economy now please! and fast!

Best comment I have heard was from James "Darth Vader" Earl-Jones....
went something along the lines
"Im not jumping up and down about it - its as it should be. (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=OxcYcJe_E1g)"
A great comment on the whole race thing - it SHOULDN'T be special that someone of X colour skin got the job.

Darth Vader? Soulkiss I'm disappointed in you.
I watched some of it on TV. He looked very natural and no unachievable or lofty goals - but there's a mountain to climb and I for one would not want his in-tray.
Hang Man and Bananna Man - I sincerely hope that you are still right behind him in say 2 years time.

J E-J is the voice of Darth Vader and for many folks he is Darth Vader. and what a voice, too.
Can you imagine Darth Vader with Dave Prowse's (the actor in the suit - Green Cross code man) Bristolian drawl.... :lol:

Dave Prowse did the dialog in the scenes, then JEJ was over-dubbed.....
Some still exsists.....

But we never stop learning new stuff, did not realise that David Prowse was only a tailor's dummy in Star Wars. So President Obama has already influenced my life after one day in office. Way to go sir! :rolleyes:
And another thread turns to Star Wars.... must be The Force at work :-D

I watched some of his speech last night, very good. However did anyone else get a little reminded of the "I have a dream" speech the late Martin Luther gave? Same sort of tones...Not that that's a bad thing.
Fair play to the man, I hope he goes far.
Look, ok hes the 1st Black american President and all that, and thats no bad thing, but i did notice yesterday that he's LEFT HANDED. Now that id be worried about!! :lol:
OI! Nowt wrong with lefties, just shows how powerful we are muahaha...:-D

Yoda lifted that 'plane thingy out of the swamp with The Force. Maybe they used gaffa-tape to lift that Airbus A320 out of the Hudson River the other day?
Kinda that same thing by the sound of it :D

+1 on that but you have to understand that no matter who was elected president the world problems and domestic of today won't be an easy fix , it will take years to get back to a level playing field and he will be tested just the same as Bush was tested on 911 , what would you do if you were president with difficult decisions like that !!!!!!!! It's easy to say this is what i would do and another thing to do it for you would have stones cast upon you no matter what your decision would be ....(damned if you do, damned if you don't)
I look foreward to see the future as only time can tell so place your bets and let the chips fall where they may .
