December 15, 2008 (Vol. 21; No. 25) Must Swear In Obama Right Now

“If I had my druthers right now, we would convene a special session of Congress, amend the Constitution and move up the inauguration from Jan. 20 to Thanksgiving Day....Just get me a Supreme Court justice and a Bible, and let’s swear in Barack Obama right now — by choice — with the same haste we did — by necessity — with L.B.J. in the back of Air Force One. “

— New York Times columnist Tom Friedman, Nov. 23.
