Where's the hope? Where's the change?

The Obama Media kept telling us to expect 5 million people to attend the inauguration of "The Chosen One."

Those estimates were downgraded in the week leading up to Jan. 20. First it was 4 million, then 3.5 million, then 2 million.

The most optimistic estimate of the crowds that gathered in Washington, D.C., was 1 million.

Once again, the hype did not match the reality. Kinda sums up Obama, doesn't it?

Not everyone is happy with the swearing in of President Barack Obama.

The Dow Jones industrial average greeted the inauguration of the new Democratic president by dropping 332.13 points or more than 4 percent on Tuesday.

It was the worst inauguration showing by the blue chip index since the Eisenhower administration.

So much for hope. So much for change.

Now that he's been sworn in as the 44th president of the United States, it's OK to use his full name.

As Chief Justice John Roberts administered the oath of office to "Barack Hussein Obama" Tuesday, Barack Hussein Obama repeated his full name during the oath, including the Muslim middle name of Hussein.

Remember how the liberal media would not use Hussein over the past two years as Barack Hussein Obama sought the White House?
