Take the mountain to Obama
CNN: Hey, Obama's inauguration is a lot like the Hajj isn't it?
After all - they've both got "large numbers of people gathering at a preordained time in a specific city to express a common set of beliefs and to celebrate a period of renewal." Since Inauguration Day and the Hajj are the only two things on the planet that can be described that way, the analogy and subsequent Teaching Moment is inescapable.
