Refresh my memory: Were there protests at Clinton's 2nd inaugural?

I don't remember any. I imagine that there were your assorted fruitcakes there, but was there any organized protest?

1. I think there were a handful

thats what I heard them talk about last night.

I went to the first Clinton Inaugural, what a party!!!!

2. Protestors followed Clinton everywhere, IIRC.

He always acknowledged them and held that they had a right to express their opinions. Compare that with Bubble Boy.

4. ABC News last night showed Clinton's and Carter's inauguration parades

and contrasted it with Bushco's. They even had a guy on who said it looked bad for the rest of the world to see how Bush was surrounded by all the guards and armored vehicles, because it could be interpreted as "the terrorists won".

Of course, what ABC would never acknowledge the real truth: that Bush was not afraid of terrorists. He was afraid of getting pelted with eggs or snowballs or fruit. All that security was to protect him from Americans.
