From the Washington Post

Here's a tidbit from the Washington Post online as an example of what you can get to by clicking on the links over on the right side of the page:
Barack Obama met with the Washington Post's top editors and reporters yesterday, ... Though Inauguration Watch was not present during the interview, we have gotten ahold of a transcript.
"What is the central message you want African-Americans to take from your Inauguration?," a reporter asked.
Replied Obama: "I am not going to spill the beans. No, no, no. Look, look, I think you have to open your Christmas present on Christmas. You can't shake the box. So we're not going to give you a preview of the inauguration speech. You're not getting that."
When the reporter followed up by asking to whether it would be okay to ask a follow up question, Obama fell back on his famous catch phrase: "Yes, you can." (Okay, close enough.)
