Authors, sign in!So apparently I'm only any good at blogging when there's an "event" that I can wrap my head around. And there's quite an event happening in DC today! If you hadn't heard, Bush left in a helicopter, chased out of DC by a good website (check out the new site if you haven't already) and ill-will from around the world.
Keep reading below the fold...
I stood out in the cold this morning/afternoon and, after discovering that a ticket to the inauguration actually means that you just get herded into insane amounts of confusion, I listened to the second half of the program. I have to admit that I felt bad for Bush when he was booed by the crowd. I really do think that he tried to do the best he could while in office...he just wasn't in any way prepared for this job.
I know Obama got a lot of flack for his lack of conventional political experience but I, for one, am really excited to see some new energy in this city. I'll have more later tonight and over the next few days, but rest assured that everyone here in DC is super-psyched to turn the page!
