Benilopax Gallente Pulsar Combat Supplies Alternative Realities	Posted - 2009.01.20 16:12:00 - [1] This is an event which is happening, do not mention the politics please. But did anyone see Al Gore's face. He looks like he hates watching these things after 2000.

Micheal Dietrich Caldari Terradyne Networks Terradyne Networks Alliance	Posted - 2009.01.20 16:28:00 - [3] I'm pretty sure that the mods are expecting said thread and this may be a case where they look the other way for a day as long as this doesn't turn into a flamefest. I give the thread 1 page though. Taking bets.
Last Wolf Umbra Wing	Posted - 2009.01.20 16:31:00 - [4] The President is like the Team Mascot. Everyone knows who it is, but he is absolutely useless when it comes to playing the game. Besides, I'm never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down

Rock: I'll put it this way -- like any business is going to be getting done while this guy is getting sworn in. Like I'm going to be in a meeting. Everything is going to stop for however long it takes. Hope they get to it -- hope it's not like I gotta listen to three different versions of "The Star-Spangled Banner" or something. I hope it's not like Rosa Parks' funeral, where everybody f***ing speaks. SOURCE: http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/01/19/chris.rock.kill.the.messenger/index.html Just amazing the number of people in Washington watching this. The Mall is an absolute sea of people. Love him or hate him this is a historical moment any way you slice it. -------------------------------------------------- "Of course," said my grandfather, pulling a gun from his belt as he stepped from the Time Machine, "there's no paradox if I shoot you!"

Jim McGregor	Posted - 2009.01.20 16:55:00 - [12] Originally by: Benilopax Originally by: Jim McGregor If I cant mention the politics, Im not sure what to say. A new president... check. He has a nice coat... Ive found a solution to my problem. Ill just go ahead and mention politics anyway. Im not normally very interested in US presidents, but with the current state of the country and the world, its going to be worthwhile seeing what he will do in the next 6 months. Will he disappoint everybody or will he actually do some good for the US and the rest of the world? He is being compared to Dr King because of his skin color and that alone must be quite some pressure. Then you have the situation in the middle east, the US economy, the fake terrorist threat and the social issues of the US to add to that. And more. I dont care what the guy looks like though. Many think he is charismatic, but its whats inside the guy that counts in these difficult times. He could be butt ugly for all I care, as long as he is intelligent, honest and ambitious.

Jim McGregor	Posted - 2009.01.20 17:19:00 - [25] Edited by: Jim McGregor on 20/01/2009 17:20:17 He is good at speaking... reminds me of Mel Gibson in Braveheart when he stands in front of his army. Of course this is very intentional by the speech writers, but its still kind of cool as long as you know its not really his words.
Imperator Jora'h	Posted - 2009.01.20 17:22:00 - [26] Edited by: Imperator Jora''h on 20/01/2009 17:25:15 Originally by: Jim McGregor Of course this is very intentional by the speech writers, but its still kind of cool as long as you know its not really his words. Actually Obama is a rare politician in that he actually does write most of his own speeches. He does have speech writers of course and he works with them but not kidding that 90% of what you are hearing almost certainly came out of his own head originally. Here ya go: Quote: Obama takes an unusually hands-on approach to his speech writing, more so than most politicians. His best writing time comes late at night when he's all alone, scribbling on yellow legal pads. He then logs these thoughts into his laptop, editing as he goes along. <snip> "When you're working with Senator Obama the main player on a speech is Senator Obama," Axelrod said. "He is the best speechwriter in the group and he knows what he wants to say and he generally says it better than anybody else would."

Aretha Franklin's rendition of "My Country Tis of Thee" was, well let's just say it should be forgotten about. The speech was meh, didn't really say anything unexpected. And somebody PLEASE tell the lady reading the poem that poems are recited, NOT read! I've heard high school kids read poems 1000x better than that.

Yes, I reported the thread as soon as it appeared. No, it obviously didn't matter. I guess that "The One" gets special exceptions in OOPE just like in the media.

Slade He clearly does not like Obama and takes exception to anything or anyone wishing him and the country well. In order to lock the thread he injected politics where none was required or asked for. He thinks this is somehow special consideration for Obama in OOPE when in fact it was merely noting a historical moment occurring. Like Obama or not it is a historical moment.

Posted - 2009.01.20 19:04:00 - [64] Edited by: Culmen on 20/01/2009 19:04:13 I think Obama is somewhere between good and ****ING AWESOME(must be conveyed in caps) But I think America can survive Obama getting assasinated In fact it'll just crystallize everything he said. Biden would take over, his staff would run the show, it would work. Not as well as with Obama though, cause lets face it America is going to need medication delivered through the suppository route, and Obama is grade A lube if nothing else Still, congrats, safe flying, hope the secret service is watching local

Micheal Dietrich Caldari Terradyne Networks Terradyne Networks Alliance	Posted - 2009.01.20 20:47:00 - [72] Originally by: Slade Since I was not clear. I was speaking of his abilities to speak with emotion. This has nothing to do with what he will do in the future. When I spoke of JFK, I was being quick in my description. I meant it as it has to do with how he inflects his voice, how and when he pauses, his very smooth use of the spoken word. In those ways I thought he is similar to JFK, then agin I do not personally remember JFK, I only have footage of him speaking to go on. Somewhat idealistic, but I was not speaking of him equaling JFK on his effect on the people of the US, in terms of the civil rights movement and other aspects of his political carrier. We all know that charisma can be the tool of evil as well as good. What he will do and be has yet to be determined. Slade I had to drag this snippet over to this thread since the other got mitnalized just as I went to post. Just wanted to mention that my mother has a old chest out in the garage that is loaded with every newspaper, article, picture, and anything else she could her hands on that had anything to do with JFK from his inauguration to his assassination. I have spent weeks digging through all of that and I still hold to the belief that if he had been given a chance things in today world would be vastly different (an argument I've held with a history teacher many times because he held different views of JFK). I just wish that Conspiracy Theorists would stop muddying his name. As for Mr. Obama I didn't vote for him, and while I don't care for some of his policies, I do believe that he'll be able to put this train wreck back on track and I'll support him in that sense. My main issue though is that too many people are thinking TOO highly of him, almost in the sense that he's the next prophet, and I fear that way of thinking may backfire one day. The man's got a full plate and he's going to need every minute of every day for the first 2 years at least to finish it and some may not have the patience to see it through.

The music was not "BY" john williams, he just conducted it. just want to set this straight: "the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies has also enlisted none other than John Williams to compose a new work to be played by cellist Yo-Yo Ma, violinist Itzhak Perlman, pianist Gabriela Montero and clarinetist Anthony McGill." Compose, verb. to create (a musical, literary, or choreographic work). to conduct it, he'd have to be there, which he was not.

For a brief 2 seconds, yes. People asked me, "So, what'd you think of the inauguration?" They looked at me weird when I said, "Al Gore was there!" On another note, that pastor struck me as the kind of guy who interprets "freedom of religion" as "freedom to be Christian."

Vabjekf	Posted - 2009.01.20 22:56:00 - [80] I liked his speech, it reminded me how amazing and awesome and huge the glorious American Empire is compared to those tiny little places elsewhere, and how we must go out and fix all the broken parts of the world, not by blowing them up, but by spreading our 'values' to the poor downtrodden heathens in the godless parts of the world through forced social integration to the American way of life. The tanks are missiles are only there to cleanse the roadblocks on the path of enlightenment, so the people can walk towards salvation in a calm and efficient manner. Obamaar victor!

Well, the campaign he ran is the envy of politicians everywhere and one they will all study and try to emulate. He got a staggering and record amount of contributions and his campaign was almost completely devoid of infighting. He also built probably the largest grass roots organization of volunteers ever. He may have done nothing as President yet but the above is enough for most politicians to wet themselves over.

Obama is my FC. Now, let's party. The first bit is a difference of opinion. Personally, I disagreed with many of his policies, speficially healthcare, and had my county clerk not been stupidly slow with my absentee ballot (found it in my mailbox the day AFTER elections...) would have voted for McCain. That said, for better or worse, President Obama is now President, and very likely my first Commander in Chief. However, accolades for achievements are earned. All he has done so far is get elected, which speaks to his charisma more than anything, and therefore deserves none of the applause and hype the media has given him. However, what does deserve noting is that he is the first (to my knowledge) minority chief of state ever to be elected by popular vote. Unfortunately, due to this fact and the white supremists, I fear that Obama has a much larger risk than McCain to be assassinated.

I do agree that racism and slavery is unacceptable and never should have happened, but history cannot be changed. But by "we" I do hope you mean people who have now been dead for 110 years or more? Basic tenants of our justice system is that you cannot be held accountable for a crime that a) you didn't commit, and b) wasn't a crime when you committed it. Seeing as slavery was unfortunately legal for the first 90 years of our country's life, b) is already disproven. Also since I don't know of anybody alive that was around before 1865, they can't be held accountable for something they didn't do. Also, how do you plan on factoring immigrants into this "retribution?" Neither side of my family was in the US prior to the civil war. One side came in the 1880s, the other at the turn of the century, therefore neither me, nor my father, nor anyone else in my family is guilty of this atrocity. Why do I owe anything when not only did I, but neither did any of my family, commit this atrocity? Your statement that "white men" enslaved "an entire race" is as blatantly racist as those who held slaves in the first place. It is so because a) NOT all whites held or even supported slavery, many were, in fact, abolitionists (Need I name more?). and b) not all african-americans were slaves (Need I name more?).

Once the US abandon the doctrine that the US have the right to invade whomever they want and feel like we will see a step towards a more stable world, until then all we can do is hope the US finally default on their interest payment and crumble.

Who cares what he says in a speech? If that's all you can cling on to then join the army and hope he doesn't send you into Iran. I didn't miss that at all. However, some people fail to realize that military spending \|= military action. In case you didn't realize, the vast majority of military spending is spent on R&D. Without military R&D, we would at the very least, have been delayed years in inventing GPS, not to mention an effective space-based telecommunications infrastructure. The vast majority of satellites are not carried about vehicles originally intended for satellites, most are ICBMs (Titan, Titan II, Atlas, Delta I-IV, IIRC Russia also uses ICBM launch vehicles to launch their satellites). Oh, by the way, I am joining the military and praying that I never have to use any of the skills that are being taught to me.

annoing Fallen Angel's	Posted - 2009.01.21 16:58:00 - [121] What I would like to know from any african-americans that grace these forum is this: As hes also half white what does that make him? Does it make him Hawaiian-american because of his mother? As the Irish have already claimed (as they always do) that he has Irish roots does that make him africanirish-american? Dont get me wrong, I wanted Obama as president (the alternative was too scary to even consider) and i'm pleaseed that america finally saw past 'race' as an issue but I must admit i'm getting a little fed-up of people ignoring the white heritage that also makes up the man known as Barack Obama. If you are a product of your upbringing (rather than just birth) then surely he should be more properly known as mykenyandadfukedoffandIwasraisedbymywhitemotherandindonesianstepfather andmywhitegrandmotherwhodidallthehardwork? Lets hope he lives up to his promises. If he only achieves half of all that we hope he will, then he will have done 10 times more than any president since the 50's.

What's far more funny is people refusing to accept the simple truth: that their next dictator is Cheney and Bush's relative. I know quite a few people who still refuse to accept it and clinging on to it being a 'joke' regardless of how many news paper articles they are shown. Ignorance is bliss and so is stupidity. Quote: Lets hope he lives up to his promises. If he only achieves half of all that we hope he will, then he will have done 10 times more than any president since the 50's. If he achieves half of what he has promised he will have achieved the exact same as every single dictator the US has had after Kenedy (not counting Carter).

What funny is people thinking that being somebody's 8th cousin matters... Obama and Cheney may be (I can't substantiate it on a reputable news site that has more than Lynne Cheney's word as truth) 8th cousins. That means they shared a great great great great great great great, yes, that 7 greats, grandparent. So 9 generations, for expediousness, call it 20 years to a generation, that means President Obama and former Vice-President Cheney's blood relation ended approximately 180 years ago. Now, since it is common knowledge that good people can have horrible kids and horrible people can have kids who are angels, why does it matter that Cheney and President Obama might have had a common ancestor 180 years or more ago?

President Obama is the first African American president in the history of the United States. HE HAS EARNED IT, unlike some of our other presidents. Please explain to me exactly how he has earned anything? This statement embodies all that is wrong with Affirmative Action. President Obama is a man, equal to all other men, not above them, not below them. Therefore, he has earned nothing but the respect due to the President of the United States of America, no more, no less. Politics is an exercise in charisma more than anything else. He has done no more than any other President before him. ninja edit- The reason there was 3x as much spent on his inauguration though is due to the unprecedented crowds expected at the Mall. As white men, we enslaved an entire race, because we deemed them as inferior. When have the Blacks ever recieved TRUE retribution. We remained racist, and many are still racist now. It's sickening. My point is, he has earned his inauguration, just like any other president. 150 mil is a chump change compared to the money that is wasted every day. As usual its the ousted party making a big deal over nothing to garner their support back. Enjoy not being in office for a while republicans. as white men, at most 15% of us enslaved a small percentage of the entire african/black race, and it was going on in less than half of our country's states just shut up EDIT: i didnt enslave anyone, nor did my father, nor my grandfather, nor my great gradnfather i helped my black neighbors move into their house, my father invited my brother's black friend who was only 17 (which could have become a lawsuit/kidnapping case) to live in our house because of major problems at home, he slept in a bed while i slept on a couch, and we ate out of the same fridge and off the same dishes again, shut up go hate yourself in your own little hole Originally by: soldieroffortune 258 "*Eve is about making yourself richer while making the other guy poorer*"

You might as well ask a fireman why he hopes he won't have to fight any fires today. Of course not but if you join the military you can expect to be sent abroad for different reasons (humanitarian, intervention). If I were in (and I've kept the option open tbh) I would really like to be able to help others in a slightly unconventional way. There was a huge fuss a few years ago when Dutch troops were being sent to Afghanistan and crying moms and dads appeared on tv appealing to the defence minister not to send out their dearest kids to a warzone. (lots of drama ensued) I'm sorry but what the ****? It's part of the bloody job, if you don't want it, pick a different job.

I have no problem with being deployed to fight a war or otherwise, however; I hope that I will never have to fight. I know the likelihood of me spending my entire career doing nothing but training is very low, but that would be ideal. My reasoning for joining is that I believe that, despite its flaws, the US is the best country on Earth and I feel a duty to defend my country and my people. To put it in the words of one of my cadre at the end of last semester, "You are being given the skills necessary to kill people and break stuff, if that doesn't scare you, there's the door."
