Inaguration Party 2009...Tuesday January 20


My good buddy Chris at My 2 Cents has reminded all of us of what a grand and glorious month is in store for us. January typically doesn't bring on cheers and smiles for many. But next month is definitely different. We've waited for January 20, 2009, for far too long. Mr. Screw Up Of The Century is gonna be out of here! Chris reminded me that I should tell all of you that my hubby and I are hosting an Inauguration Party early on the morning of Tuesday, January 20, 2009. The actual ceremony begins at 09:00 but our doors will be open at 7:00am and we're asking that everyone be here before 08:30am so that we can all focus on the swearing in. I still don't think I have a good grasp on what this really truly means for us as a nation and even as a globe. It's not like any other inauguration ever. We're serving a yummy breakfast casserole along with fresh fruit. And to celebrate, we'll have Bailey's for the coffee along with Bloody Marys and Mimosas too. If you're in the Portland area, or would like to be, we hope you'll consider yourself invited. I do need your RSVP, though, by January 10.

Please, come and help us say goodbye to the Bush.

What a wonderful idea! I wish I could be there, but I will be in DC at the actual swearing in : ) I'll wave to you on TV.

Unfortunately, if you are paying attention to the news, the guy is attempting to screw the country royally for years after he is gone by some of his covert actions.

This is truly a great idea! I wish I could do something like this, but the new job calls. If I were in Portland, I would def take you up on the invite.

What a great idea! Would love to join you, unfortunately, will not be in the area. Perhaps you will hear me cheering from down here.

I am hoping to be in Washington!!! I MIGHT have a special ticket! But if not, I might travel to Portland! Will know by January 10.

Yes, goodbye to Bush alright, but why did Obama choose Rick Warren, the anti-gay pastor to speak at his inauguration? The gay community is very pissed about this, especially since Rick Warren supported the ban on gay marriage in California.

I dunno man. Goodbye to the idiot for sure, but this is a shitty kind of person to pick.

Wish I were going to be in Portland to attend! (Well, one of these days I'll get to meet you!)

Obama will be just as bad, if not worse. (Thanks for gaining a homophobe like Warren a million new followers, Obama)
