It seems like he might have just missed it. I hope he got it in time.

He said he wasn't even going to watch it.

Fox News headline (really): "Obamas Inaugural Luncheon tops 3000 calories" http://fxn.ws/UMkSI6
Unreal..
Which part? The 3,000 calories (which is approximately a burger and fries at Five Guys) or the fact that Fox News devoted resources to the coverage of it?
The latter. How fucking petty is that?
Unreal..
It's certainly raised my eyebrow that they consider this "news".the decadence of the Inaugural Luncheon has raised a few eyebrows.
One burger and fries from Five Guys is 3000 calories?
That doesn't sound right.
Well, per Fox, at leastIt's probably more like a meal from Olive Garden.
Good old Cheesecake factory. Although in their defense I have absolutely never been able to come close to finishing any of their "serious" entrees in one sitting.it still contains less than the whopping 3,120 calories in The Cheesecake Factory's heart-stopping Bistro Shrimp Pasta that won this year's Xtreme Eating Awards
The fact that he swore on MLK's bible kind of sickened me tbh.

Hello Cornell West.
^Basically. The fact of the matter is that MLK would probably not have approved of Obama's presidency as a whole.

edit: A Bacon Cheeseburger and Large Fries (essentially the most decadent order I can imagine one person undertaking) would be 2374.
Holy god does their menu sound delectable though. I'd make today a cheat day if I were him, too.

I'd like to see a calorie count comparison too.![]()

Missing the nuance/point again

Fair enough. Bailing out the wall street oligarchs, continuing to arrest people for minor drug violations when he himself smoked pot (the very drug laws which are BASED on racism), drone strikes overseas. Whatever.
This is a pretty disgusting and self-absorbed post. You know what Martin Luther King might have been interested in? DEFEATING RACISM.
Well of course and the current prison-industrial complex certainly doesn't help with that now does it? The drug laws in this country are absolutely based in racism.
And therefore MLK would've been disappointed in the first black president. Uh-huh. You were more fun as a libertarian.
Completely disappointed? Perhaps not. It was definitely a great thing in that aspect. But to deny that he's done very questionable things is ridiculous. MLK himself was against the Vietnam war. Why wouldn't he criticize Obama for his foreign policy exactly?
This just in: MLK disappointed in every president ever.
Well you know, MLK Jr was a Republican.
Well, per Fox, at least
