Why such a partisan speech?

Frankly, I can't remember much about inauguration speeches in recent years. 

I do recall Pres Carter turning around and graciously thanking Pres Ford for everything that he had done to heal the country after Watergate.  It was classy and very well-deserved praise.  

Later, I remember the first Pres Bush talking about bringing the nation together, or "the 1,000 points of light." 

Today, Pres BO surprised me with such a partisan speech.  It was unnecessary.  Nobody was in a partisan mood except Pres BO.

He did not mention any big themes, except for more of the same about social justice.  "Gay rights" may be an important issue to Pres BO and the left but the people are more interested in jobs.  Also, there was not a word about the deficit, or the silent killer threatening our economy.

Again, I don't get it.  Nobody wanted to hear a partisan speech except Pres BO and some of his most ardent supporters.

Gun control and the 2nd Amendment


We spoke today with Clayton Moore about gun control, the 2nd Amendment and mental health.  We discussed the history of the 2nd Amendment and why The Founding Fathers put it in the US Constitution.  Also, Clayton does not think that Pres BO's executive orders are serious or very significant.

Clayton wrote a book about his brother and mental health.  It is "My brother Ron" and it tells us about we've allowed thousands of dangerous to walk the streets.
