While Barack Obama officially took the presidential oath of office yesterday in a private ceremony, a public swearing in will occur on the Capitol steps today, followed by two inaugural balls and performances by the likes of Beyoncé and James Taylor. What do you think?

“It’s absolutely ridiculous that there’s even one inaugural ball given that the Benghazi matter is still very much under investigation.”

“Nothing says presidential like some ‘Fire and Rain.’”
