I remember where I was when I saw it. It may be vitally important to remember these details- the last moments of the before now that I’ve been plunged into the after. What I have seen cannot be unseen.

As I’ve already compared FDR and new President Obama as far as the challenges they face, I thought I’d compare their inaugural speeches.

Change and hope. These are the inescapable buzzwords as new President Barack Obama makes his final triumphant march into the White House. But once the music’s stopped, the jetset has jetted off, and the confetti’s been swept from the floor, there’s real work to be done, work that will test our mettle as a people and our thirst for change. That is, if President Obama is willing to do what needs doing.
