Draggingtree Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Flooping Aces: Oh come let us adore him By: DrJohn Barack Obama has lined up 8 people to lead the worship of him during his coronation high mass inauguration. WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is featuring eight Americans as “citizen co-chairs” of his inauguration, a new role created to highlight his first-term accomplishments with examples of lives that have either been improved by his actions or inspired his presidency. The honorees announced Thursday include a woman with a brain tumor who no longer is denied health care for a pre-existing condition; an autoworker who got her job back after the General Motors bailout; and a gay pilot-in-training kicked out of the Air Force before the president repealed the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. Inauguration officials said the president has met most of the eight individuals during his first term and their inclusion in inaugural events is meant to showcase his administration’s core values through real-life examples that people across the country can relate to. It’s a time-honored presidential practice to illustrate policy ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
