The Presidential Inauguration

Tuesday, January 22, 2013


Did you all watch the Presidential Inauguration? I caught the tail end of the ceremony and then re-watched the speech - what amazing vision. The Times called it "an assertive Inaugural Address that offered a robust articulation of modern liberalism in America, arguing that 'preserving our individual freedoms ultimately requires collective action.'” President Obama went on to outline a vison for our country which includes advancing gay rights, preserving the social safety net, and (finally) acting on climate change. Plus, how poignant was it that this took place on MLK day to boot? 



Regardless of your political beliefs, I think there is one thing we can all agree on: Beyonce is fabulousMore evidence - like you needed it.

  6. This is Beyonce's year! She's catching headlines from the inauguration more than Obama.
