Congratulations to President Barack Obama
Congratulations to President Barack Obama.
I'm sure much will happen today that I could criticize, but I'll resist the urge and not do so. Let the Democrats have their day. Barack Obama won the election fair and square, and he and his followers deserve a day alone to celebrate. Tomorrow we'll get on with the business of blogging as usual.
I'm posting this now, before he's officially sworn in, for two reasons. One is simply that I have to run off to work and want to get this up now. Second, I'm sure he'll sign some executive order today that will annoy me greatly, so I want to post this before I change my mind.
Not really. I'd put it up anyway.
And you know, he does look good there standing in front of the Capitol.
Further, it really is a good thing that we can elect a black person to the presidency of the United States. It wasn't that long ago when it seemed like such a thing would never be possible. Peoples and nations can change.
Obviously I wish that black person wasn't Barack Obama. But it is what it is, and we'll all just have to get on with it.

"Obviously I wish that black person wasn't Barack Obama"
Yeah....I would have felt better if it was someone with the integrity like Gregory Hines,Bill Cosby, or even Bill “Bojangles” Robinson had.
I don't know too many politicians with integrity be they black or white!
