    That's the thing about many if not most left-wing people, they never stop being activists. Activism is baked into the cake of their ideology, so they gravitate towards career fields that allow them to continue their activism. School teachers, actors, journalists, reporters, are all jobs dominated by the left, because they are all jobs where they can make a living and push for the change they want in society.

    Ironic, considering left-wing Democrats have been chastising everyone during the last 8 years about how the office of the Presidency should be respected.

    As long as Bill Clinton remains the elder Statesman of the Democratic Party, you have zero moral high ground to criticize Trump. None, whatsoever. Whatever Trump said, Clinton did, and worse.

    Considering the hypocrisy I have witnessed, I'd be willing to bet a good percentage of these folks have their favorite porn site bookmarked and up in another window ;)

    Watching a peaceful transition of power to the highest office in the land is what I would classify as a lesson in civics. It's part of govt and judging by some of the leftist comments on this site I would say their local school excused them from civics classes.

    And people wonder how the US can spend so much money on education yet are middle of the road in the education department. It's attitudes like yours that make it all seem so real.

    Oh how I wish that were true to some extent Butterballs, my 8 year old grand daughter came home from school and said if she could vote she'd vote for Hillary. I asked her why? She said because she is a woman, nothing more.

    Leave them alone by subjecting them to a political speech when they could be learning?

    You must have been a really sad 9 year old who preferred to listen to a politician on tv instead of playing with friends at the end of a school day.

    Leave them alone by not using them for their activist causes. You think this progressive teacher would have let the kids listen to Hillary give her speech?

    Dude...

    ...by his own admission.

    Were you too young during that time to remember?

    The same strategy that Hillary played out over her criminal email actions was based off the strategy surrounding Billbro's sex scandals.

    -The evolving lies that matched the release of each new bit of info.
    -The complete media blackout from anything other than "sources from within blah blah".
    -The evidence destroying, the wall of bodies, the collusion between investigator, federal body and suspect.
    -The investigation of the investigation.
    -The corrupt Democrat leadership ignoring clear violations of law (Senate refusing to charge).
    -The "admission and apology" statement that spent 99% of the time talking about how "everybody is out to get us cuz Republicans".

    And all the while Democrat media was slandering and defaming the victims of his sexual assaults as well as any woman that rose to their defense.

    Amazing isn't it?

    In typical Leftists fashion all of the huff-n-puff over things like "rape culture" and "feminism" mean absolutely jack (*)(*)(*)(*) when it comes to protecting a member of the liberal elite.

    When I was in school I did my school work and when I got home I did my homework then went outside, on weekends I worked at my grand fathers restaurant for extra money, yes, 9 years old. In school we all watched the inaugurations, actually it was better to watch the inauguration than have class. In California the inauguration was at 9 am so we were in school as was most of the countries schools, has nothing to do with staying inside or playing outside.

    Do you remember what the liberal schools did when oBozo was inaugurated in '09?

    Hell, it was a full day of assemblies and speeches and all that other worthless liberal (*)(*)(*)(*).

    And it continued even after that day...

    And if you had bothered to read post 73 that I replied to :- "Parents can choose to keep their kids home so they can watch it, or record it and let the kids watch it home". All normal nine year old children prefer to watch tv than do class work no matter what is on tv!

    Back in the 60's I was in grammar school, 7th grade, we were bused to the Memorial Coliseum at UC Berkeley to see a campaign speech by then senator JFK,
    we never went to see Nixon when he spoke a few weeks later. It also took the better part of the school day. Was that appropriate ?

    It is a civics lesson no matter who is being inaugurated. It should be in school, the inauguration occurs during school hours.

    actually, no, I wasn't sad at all. However, even knowing squat about politics at the time, I can remember being inspired by watching JFK's speech when I was about that age. Just say'n

    Why yes, the OP lied. Hard to believe a RWer would do such a thing.
    The above is the full headline to the story.

    - - - Updated - - -

    The OP lied. He is showing some of the inauguration. Just not the speech from trump. And RWers gave him the national spotlight.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I think the complainers here must have seen every inauguration speech in shcool when they were kids. Not.

    Then educate yourself.

    Leftists are always telling everybody how "informed" they are.

    Well, at least try to live up to that.
