I suppose the Obama administration will be using the .change() event.
(I just hope no one - comedically and mistakingly - bails out web 2.0 bubblets creating be web 2.5. We'll see.)

Meaning, the CMS does not allow comments?
Or there is currently no interface for comments?
Or there are pages that should, in your opinion, allow comments, but currently do not?
Or the site will never allow comments?

"Later today, we'll put up the video and the full text of President Obama's Inaugural Address. There will also be slideshows of the Inaugural events, the Obamas' move into the White House, and President Obama's first days in office."
Would be great if his name was Barack Obamas.

"Frigg's Law: Anyone who corrects someone else's grammar on the internet has a greater than 90% chance of 1) being wrong, 2) including grammatical mistakes of their own in the text of the purported correction, or 3) being a dick. The more the grammar-corrector pursues their correction in a thread, the closer that percentage approaches 100%."

As for commenting - come on, Owen. There isn't a budget large enough to hire the number of moderators they'd need.

I am intrigued...

"One significant addition to WhiteHouse.gov reflects a campaign promise from the President: we will publish all non-emergency legislation to the website for five days, and allow the public to review and comment before the President signs it."
So obviously there are plans in place to allow commenting at some time in the future.

Or everything will be an 'emergency' and therefore not get posted.

Don't you think it's better that way, to keep the less-than-bright away?*
*(this might include me, as I do not follow directions well.)
