This is new

We just finished watching President (PRESIDENT!) Obama's swearing-in and inauguration speech.

I am so incredibly happy that the last eight years are behind us, and I'm cautiously hopeful about the next four. I've been so displeased with our government for my entire adult life, so this feeling of hope and goodwill and unity is completely foreign to me. I mean, for the last eight years there's been exactly ONE speech by our president that didn't make me want to stab him in the face. Listening to our leader speak without grinding my teeth is totally weird. But weird GOOD.

Also, THIS is the best sight ever. Just more proof that Bush is gone, Obama is in, and now, maybe, we can get back to what's important.
