And now the end is near
Like that man said about the curtain

My fellow Americans. At this proud moment, on this auspicious occasion dawning of a new era quadrennial federal holiday, in this biting cold freezing rain impenetrable fog, we gather together huddle in pain are already bored.

In the wake of Barack Obama's selection of RIck Warren to give the convocation at the Inauguration, America has been asking itself one question: Rick who? The answer invites a raft of new questions, such as, What the Hell? and The Inauguration? He had to invite him to THE INAUGURATION?...
