...and the Travis McGee Reader covers the inauguration

At the the top of the news on this historic morning...

--Valerie Jarrett. No one seems to know exactly what she does for a living. All seems to hinge on one achievement. When Val was a Chicago lawyer, she hired the pre-Obama Michelle. Since then she's been a celebrity and an "advisor" to His Ineptness. So I suppose it's best to think of her as America's First Nanny.

That's good enough for MSNBC.  Joe and Mika pointed the camera at her this morning and wondered about the Second Inept Term.  She recited the litany, immigration gun debt fair middle class balanced approach all in this together. But: "He can't do it alone."

To which one seasoned observer replied: "And for that we may thank our God and all the angels."

--In a related development, the electrical teevee says President Obama is the first two-termer to take his oath of office four times. Last time around the judge bungled the wording, so they had a do-over, just to make sure. This time he had to do it once on Sunday, the Constitutionally mandated official day. He'll do it again today as a extra photo-op.

Leading one cockeyed optimist to speculate: "Look, dammit. This guy has sworn to defend the Constitution four times. Four times, count 'em.  Four, dammit!  Maybe that's enough so he gets the general idea." 

Usually reliable sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, told the TMR, "You're outta your damned gourd." 

More news as developments warrant. Keep it right here.
