I'm lost. Can History judge a presidency before it's started? If so then we should probably just move onto the next guy. Just skip to 2012. Wait … I’m lost.

Your bias is showing. This is a historical moment and you don't have to be a liberal to recognize it. People want to see it, and its more worthy of seeing than a princess getting married or what random douchebag wins a million dollars off Survivor. It's also not the funniest Obama inaug thing I've seen this week anyways, apparently theres a Spiderman Obama issue coming out tomorrow or something. “People should let the guy actually prove himself before going too crazy.”

Yeah, I'll take the theater instead. Though count me in for only watching the highlights on CNN.

I was hoping my boss would let us off work to watch it. :) They’re screening it at the Bloor Cinema in Toronto, as well, and lots of other non-theatre business are having inauguration screenings of one kind or another.

More hero worship. People should let the guy actually prove himself before going too crazy. And, by the way, I don't think any other entertainment has proven to be a good draw at theaters beside films. This won't be any different. Ugh. More hero worship.
