They were mature and professional enough to do everything to ensure a smooth transition. Whereas Clinton and Obama (and their administrations) have acted like spoiled losers.

Post by: 230RN on January 18, 2017, 05:48:02 PM: I'd give $1000 to administer the oath.

And $5000 to administer the boot.

ETA: :laugh: (Figured I'd better put that in.)

Yeah, from what I've been reading today, he's really going full bore on the monkeywrenchng. Though I also read that Trump is taking Friday off and then getting his pen out on Monday at 0900. :)

That, or as soon as he finishes the oath he'll pull a stack of prewritten executive orders out of his pocket and sign them right then and there.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no big fan of Trump, but I just can't wait to see Obama gone...

I'm keeping him in a little window on the work computer for the rest of Obama's presidency. And by "the rest of Obama's presidency," I mean this morning. :lol:

Less than an hour!

Post by: Ben on January 20, 2017, 12:21:58 PM: Just finished his speech. Obama actually looked composed and congratulatory when they shook hands, but OH MY - if looks could kill, Michelle's expression would have set Trump aflame. Man did she look pissed about what he said in his speech. =D

Post by: Perd Hapley on January 20, 2017, 12:44:24 PM: And Obama just boarded ~~Marine One~~ a chopper. Fleeing the scene.

Thank God.

Did anyone notice Hillary - still with that same "creepy grandma" grin on her face? What does she use to keep it there - super glue?

She reminds me SO much of "The Joker" from one of the "Batman" movies . . .

Well, now I know what happened to grandma's couch; it was skinned for Michelle's dress.

Looks more like industrial grade carpet.

Pretty sure that's what the couch was upholstered in. Granddad found deal like that fairly often.

Actually...it does look a bit like a moving blanket, doesn't it?

I thought you were going to refer to the picture of the new First Lady. Not appropriate I guess. =D
