Will You Be Watching

Now somebody explain to me why this inauguration is an historic event?

News Flash!!! Every inauguration has been an historic event in it's own right.

And what I find to be sad, is that so many of the PTers that aren't even from the U.S., are more enthusiastic and interested in this event, than many of the U.S. citizens here.
Why have we become such an apathetic society? The "land of the free" is not a right - it's a privilege that was fought for and earned at a very high price. Maybe we should wake up and realize that this could be lost much more easily than it was obtained!


ETA: lest I forget to add IMO here so that I don't start a civil war!
