GW had better get the hell out of Dodge after his swearing-in, lest the Supreme Court change its mind!
PRESERVE, protect and defend the Constitution? They are all liars!
FDR's fourth inaugural on January 20, 1945 was not a private ceremony. It was a public ceremony but it was held at the White House and not the U.S. Capitol Building.
The Nixon inaugural is incorrectly dated here as January 20, 1961. The correct date was January 20, 1969.
I know, I'll fix it when I do the next one after 20 January 2009.
