They will be acting up at the Lincoln Memorial to compete with the inauguration. They'll be as hateful and ignorant as the Palinistas were, who are now getting their marching orders from Glenn Beck and World Nut Daily, now starring Rick Santorum.

I suspect corporate media will favor the crowd at the Lincoln Memorial just as they did Glenn Beck:

Back to Reality.

Since the traditional date falls on Sunday, it will be on the following Monday which is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. And 2013 will be the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclaimation. These days and anniversaries are joyful symbols of our progress for many of us.

The White House's official schedule is as follows:


Things will kick off on Saturday, Jan. 19, with a tradition started by the Obamas at the president's first inauguration in 2009: a National Day of Service designed to honor Americans' shared values and celebrate the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.

Next, in keeping with tradition for inauguration days that fall on a Sunday, the president will participate in a small, private swearing-in ceremony on Jan. 20.

The big event -- the public swearing-in, followed by a parade and the official inaugural balls -- will take place on Monday, Jan. 21.

"This year's inaugural will reflect our belief that working together, we can keep moving our country forward and fulfill the promise of the American dream for all families," President Obama said in a statement released today.
