Emon the thing that encourages abouto me comes from the honor guard ga oath they say theyreoathsa performance will not be dictatec by the type ceremony or the severity of temperature or thep size of the crowd and so whatd n you will see on inauguration dan is just an example of what theye do every day honoring the fallel at arlington and elsewhere.

Ut t if youre a member of congress,c do you have unnoble obligationbt to tend the president ialsidentil inauguration even if you donton agree with the incoming eg president . Handful of o democratic representatives dores plan to skip the swearing in one week from today. Tay. Earlier this morning we talked d with representative Luis Guiterrez of illinois who hasois been to the last fiveast five inaugurations but will not, wili not be attending this one. S one he says he just cant get passes some of the things that donaldst trump has said especially durinl the campaign. I have a Clear History off working with george bush andus d working with republicans. This man is different, and until he demonstrates to me that hes going to respect women, that, at hes going to respect religious and religious tolerance in thiss country, ill just skip. In the meantime, im goingki tog continue to work withworkh republicans in the house and ini the senate, and if the presideni says we need to come down andeon meet, ill go down and meet with him. M. But i wont stand at the inauguration. Augu im going to the womens march. Thats Luis Guiterrez very v empassioned standing by his convictions and being fromngro illinois he has been this ist not something new. N hes very empassioned lawmaker. Voted in probably two decades ago because of his championingig for the underdog. Uer so hearing him talk its not itt different from what i know ofkno him. And i think ive said thisaidhis before on the show its aboutowu convict. If you truly believe inly bel something you should take theg k stand and work towardse makingn the change you believe in. My 2 cents. Cen hopefully the stand hes taka asking at least
