The inauguration ceremony is over. President Obama goes to work in the Oval Office of the White House the first time in his presidency.
The hand-off of the White House from former President Bush to President Obama went more smoothly that Bush's own eight years ago. Unlike the 2001 hand-off, Bush found that all the Ws were removed from the keyboards in the executive office building of President Bill Clinton's departing administration. When Bush and Obama met Monday afternoon at the White House, the outgoing president had set in motion a transition that would make orderliness part of his legacy. That would probably be the only good news for President Obama, as he inherits from Bush the worst economy since the Great Depression along with many other issues.
