Very cool to see Trump and Pence saluting our troops as they walk past. | |||

I like how the young Trump Barron is sipping on what I'm assuming is a hot chocolate. Whenever I'm outside at an event in the cold, I never feel right unless I'm sipping on a coffee or hot chocolate.  Speaking of sipping on a drink, it's about that time to start mixing up some Old Fashioneds or Manhattans. Can't decide which one I want. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

Man I could watch this all night! The concert last night gave me a very "Fourth of July" vibe, which is my absolute favorite holiday. So good. | |||

Yes. It was a Navy CDR with Mrs. Pence. A Marine Captain escorted Mrs. Trump, as I observed earlier, a day he will never forget, and maybe not wash his jacket, either. How they draw that duty, I have no idea. I thought I had used up a lot of my lifetime supply of good luck when I got shore duty in Coronado as a brand new Ensign in the middle of the VN war! Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Is it proper for Pence? Neither Trump nor Pence are military, but Trump is head of state, CIC. The Veep is neither. Is it just imitation is the sincerest form of flattery?

I think Pence was just gratitude. His son is a commissioned officer in the Marines. The man is a patriot. I'll let it slide | |||

I am NOT going to count the number of drinks I have tonight. I did manage to get to watch Pence and Trump being sworn in. And I caught Trump's speech. Compare what he said with the outgoing numnutz. Trump used a lot of "you" and "we", as opposed to the years of "I"/"me"/"mine". Refreshing. And the theme song from Team America kept running through my head. _______________________ “The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

Proper or not I will bet it is appreciated. RMD, TL Davis: “The Second Amendment is special, not because it protects guns, but because its violation signals a government with the intention to oppress its people…” Remember: After the first one, the rest are free. | |||

The Talladega college marching band was awesome. I was very impressed with that school's leadership (a mostly all black school) pushing back against those saying that they shouldn't attend for political reasons. Good for them for teaching their students that this goes beyond politics. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

The bands and music, heck the whole event has been a huge success. Thoroughly enjoyed and recorded it as well. Watching with the family. I'll be joining the rest of you toasting Trump and friends shortly. The evening should be very interesting as the night goes on. I suspect there will be some emotionally charged, slurred, and /or incoherent posts.  -Dtech __________________________ "I've got a life to live, people to love, and a God to serve!" - sigmonkey "Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value." - Albert Einstein "A man can never have too much red wine, too many books, or too much ammunition" ― Rudyard Kipling | |||
