Probably a bunch of scalpers but there´s supposed to be safe guards against this.But I don´t know how you go from the event losing interest over last time to be sold out in a week.

Drat! The Great Unwashed, hoi polloi, get to partake of the Ball with the High Rollers.

Don´t you just hate it when they let the little people in...?

Lemme see if I understand this: The inaugural parties, at which no self-respecting person would attend, are being proclaimed ´sold-out´ before the time of sales?

1. Fake a sell-out; 2. Hire unionized security; 3.Give laundered attendance numbers; 4. Pocket the cash. For crooks, it is a win-win situation.

Sounds like the election...all sewn up in his favor before the big day......

Ah, so...you have velly many tickee, sale, tlue? Me buy many many tickee. You no terr who buyah is, ok? Me give you cadirrac...me so hohny...

Stay home, it will be a lot warmer.

Oops. Must´ve forgotten to recalibrate those machines back after the election.

Too bad that is the evening I wash my hair so I can´t attend or watch the event.

I hope the scalpers have to eat the tickets for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

"they" just want to make sure "we" don´t buy tickets and protest. I wouldnt waste my time or money but its a scary proposition to them

#1 beat me to it - "how [do] you go from the event losing interest over last time to be sold out in a week."?

´´Computer glitch´´,...Yeah, that´s the ticket...

(pun intended)

Hmmm. I wonder if this was a "glitch" or if it was deliberate.

A thought - perhaps someone with many dollars bought all of them, will then destroy them and no one will show up at the ball.

Considering how much obama´s handlers/masters control his exposure to the public, I´m betting this was done BY the handlers.

It stand to reason they would be a hot item. each ticket comes with a commemorative welfare check, a free obamaphone, and trading cards of your favorite Chicago thugs.
If you get the Rahm card you get a free beating every week for life. The Blago card gets you a free vacation at the country club of your choice.

Is there anything about this guy that isn´t rigged?

I just saw an ad where you can win 2 tix to an Inaugural ball if you send a contribution to the Democrat party. LOL - it´s a racket.

Funneled into the hands of union thugs who wil pay for them out of members´ dues and then force said members to attend. Thugs will be compensated by kickbacks and specials funding from the WH. IOW, business as usual.

Oh gee, I can´t make it, I have to take my turtle to the vet.

To what advantage? Who except far left ringers would want to go to this "event" anyway? If it is scalpers who snapped up the tickets, they are probably going to get scalped themselves. The only reason I can think of is that Øbama people want to control every aspect t of it- no protesters- If Øbama campaign bought up the tickets, they can hand them out to cronies and keep the anti-Øbama crowd completely out. Very Hitlerian.

Okay, which is it? One story states there is panic about the "low turnout" for inauguration while this one states that tickets are sold out before public sale.

Can´t get their stories straight, which one is it? Low attendance or sold out tickets? Very amusing watching the press twist into pretzels.

How I would love it if someone bought all the tickets up just with the intent of having no one show up!!! BWAHAHA

Can I get one with my EBT card? I´ll just call on my Obamafone.

Do NOT go to D. C. on the 20th. There will be enough of Hussein´s people there to make a Tarzan movie.

And they don´t like whitey.

Well, that was "not optimal"!

oh darn.

Purchased by the people who will not have an increase in employee taxes?????? Will the music at this said ball be uplifting or degrading for the American spirit????

Computer glitch?

Yeah, that´s what it was; a computer glitch.

Hey little people, to H with you, if you didn´t give me loads of cash you can´t come.

Now that Obie has put all this into perspective there is nothing to add...not even more lies will help.

I´m planning on going to the range and shooting off a few hundred rounds that day.

Then I´m getting really, really drunk.

I sure hope NØbamacare provides free Vaseline for all the reamings that we are going to have to bend over and take the next four years...

#33

great idea! that´s my new schedule

Computer glitch? Nah. Not for a party that had all the computer geeks working for them (300 in Chicago) that managed to get the goobers out to vote in greater numbers than the fired up conservatives. Maybe.

They were no doubt "bought" by the campaign fund and will be distributed "free" to big donors and relatives.
