I see they had a repeat swearing-in session to get the word right (otherwise some wise-guy could say the swearing-in at the Capitol wasn't legal).

Awwww, some folks didn't make it to see Obama so they've formed a club!

I still think Hilary Clinton feels uncomfortable next to (and under) Obama

All former US Presidents are still known as 'President', so Bush can use the title when he's a-roping them steers back on the ranch. Laughing

Not that he will get any credit for it, but Bush managed a very smooth & courteous handover to Obama since the election. Compared that to the juvenile acts by the Clinton White House where the defaced keyboards removing the letter "W".
