First of all, if you can only complain about CNN why do you blog on their site? Go somewhere else. 2nd, I never heard of anybody being hired to criticize the spelling and/or the English of bloggers on the site. If you feel everyone is below you then why aggravate yourself and keep coming back to the site to see all of the mistakes being made. 3rd, learn the real facts before making statements. Why are there so many highly intelligent people out there, brilliant about EVERYTHING in the world, with time on their hands to spend many hours a day on blog sites? As for Obama's inaugural balls, he deserves whatever he decides to have, to celebrate. People like me are paying for these celebrations, not the tax payers. With the mess he has inherited his celebrations will be short lived. Wake up America and support this man whether you voted for him or not. As for the idiots, shut up.

You see one thing about Obama supporters that was lacking in every other candidates campaign - we put our money where our mouth is. We gave to him generously because he spent our money wisely and in ways we approved of. Unlike other unnamed candidates that use money to launch deceptive and misleading negative ads. I made a donation but I don't care for crowds however, if you were to attend I would sincerely hope that you have a great time.
