I always like this day regardless of who wins. It's great to live in the United States.
I have a question: I always thought that when we are at war, the eagle on the Presidential Seal faced the arrows of war, but it is still facing the olive branches of peace. Is this incorrect?

I agree though, today is one of my favorite days; I think inauguration day is a excellent celebration and a very nice event.
