Inauguration in a Flash January 22, 2009

I know I’m a little late in posting about the inaurugation, but, as usual, CNN.com provides us with an excellent resource for general use.

It’s been 220 years since George Washington’s inauguration, so what a better time to celebrate. CNN provides us with the full text and, where available, video of every president’s inaugural speech — except poor Gerald Ford, who never had one. That’s what he gets for never being elected.

Now, despite it being two days after the Inauguration, CNN may have forgotten about this special page since it is not updated with Obama’s text and video. Regardless, it’s fascinating to watch FDR in 1933 and 1946.

That’s my educational lesson for the day.
