<http://thisainthell.us/blog/?p=7224> Obama blows off Medal of Honor recipients January 21st, 2009 According to TSO who was at the "Salute to Heroes Inaugural Ball", this newly sworn-in President for the first time in 56 years blew off the ball (that's 14 Inaugurations). Some background on the ball; The American Legion sponsors the ball, which recognizes recipients of Medal of Honor, the nation's highest military award. It started in 1953 for President Dwight D. Eisenhower's first inauguration. Event co-sponsors include 13 other veterans service organizations, among them the Military Order of the Purple Heart and the Paralyzed Veterans of America. So where was our new President instead of honoring Medal of Honor recipients who by some miracle are still alive? According to <http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/01/14/obama-inauguration-schedu_0_n_1578 59.html> Huffington Post, this was his schedule for Inaugural celebrations; Later that day, the Presidential Inaugural Committee will host 10 official inaugural balls: _ Neighborhood Inaugural Ball at the Washington Convention Center. _ Obama Home States (Illinois and Hawaii) Inaugural Ball at the Washington Convention Center. _ Biden Home States (Pennsylvania and Delaware) Inaugural Ball at the Washington Convention Center. _ Midwest Inaugural Ball at the Washington Convention Center. _ Mid-Atlantic Inaugural Ball at the Washington Convention Center. _ Western Inaugural Ball at the Washington Convention Center. _ Commander in Chief's Ball at the National Building Museum. _ Southern Inaugural Ball at the National Guard Armory. _ Eastern Inaugural Ball at Union Station. _ Youth Inaugural Ball at the Washington Hilton.
