>>Feinstein: It is my great personal honor

I stand here today humbled by the task before us,

grateful for the trust you have bestowed,

mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors.

I thank President Bush for his service to our nation,

and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath.

The words have been spoken during rising tides

of prosperity and the still waters of peace.

Yet, every so often, the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds

At these moments, America has carried on not simply

because of the skill or vision of those in high office,

but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals

of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.

So it must be with this generation of Americans.

That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood.

Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network

Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed

and irresponsibility on the part of some,

but also our collective failure to make hard choices

Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered.

Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many;

that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries

Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping

of confidence across our land - a nagging fear

and that the next generation must lower its sights.

Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real.

They will not be met easily or in a short span of time.

But know this, America - they will be met.

On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear,

unity of purpose over conflict and discord.

On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances

and false promises, the recriminations and worn

out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled

We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture,

the time has come to set aside childish things.

The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit;

to choose our better history; to carry forward

that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation

to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal,

to pursue their full measure of happiness.

In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand

It has not been the path for the faint-hearted -

or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame.

Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers,

the makers of things - some celebrated but more often men

and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us

up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.

For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled

For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West;

endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.

For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord
