Nice touch that the inauguration happens the day after MLK day.
Here are my expectations as to where the US will be in four years, in order of probability (highest to lowest):
-The President of the United States of America will be guilty of war crimes
-US forces will be out of Iraq, but still in Afghanistan
-Medicare will be available for every citizen as a healthcare plan
-2009 and 2010 will be bad years for the country economically. Unemployment will be more than 10% by late 2009. I think stagflation is possible, and more likely than deflation. In January 2012 the Dow will be treading around 9,000.
-One of Cheney/Rumsfeld/Gonzales/Addington/Yoo will have been arrested overseas and charged with a war crime.
Anyone else want to look into the crystal ball with me?
