And Todd Wood, a West Virginia University senior from Lewisburg, W.Va., found that omission unsettling. In Las Vegas, former high school French teacher Linda Cotten found it alarming.

Both were concerned Bush will force his will upon other countries.

"He's assuming too much responsibility," said Cotten, a 59-year-old Democrat who voted for Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites) in the presidential election. "It seems to me that he's laying ground for Iran and North Korea (news - web sites)."

In Pittsburgh, Bob Romah, a 50-year-old Republican, didn't think much of the inaugural events. Inside the Original Oyster House, Romah purposely chose a table away from the television showing Bush's address.

"What's the estimate on what was spent today for this? Forty or $50 million? He's been the president for four years. Is it really necessary for all this pomp and circumstance?" Romah said as he drank a glass of buttermilk and pepper.

I had to edit: many seem to think I am knocking the guy for buttermilk and pepper. I was just curious about it. His ** quote is great!
