Seriously why. WTF cares if he says Jesus or not. He could invoke the good name of the Fly Spaghetti Monster (SBUH), for all I care. It's just a fucking inauguration, full of petty symbolism. People should be focused on the fact that from Jan. 20th, there is, as there has always been, one president of the United States, except that man is now Barack Hussein Obama, a historic moment not just because he's got a weird name and a color of skin that Crayola in the 60's would not have considered to be "flesh" colored (burnt umber, maybe?), but because he has shown so far that he willing to bring Washington into the 21st century, to use the Web for maximum effect, and so far actually seems willing to open a direct channel of communication between the White House and people not just in the US, but around the world. He's not just a black guy asking for change, he's a black guy making change. Good for him, and I can't wait.
Why are people getting hung up on this
