It Is Done.

First off, I'd like to congratulate the American people for not fucking up two times in a row. A scant 36 hours ago, it came to pass that Barack Obama is out 44th president, and not a second too soon. If you want any indication of the kind of president Bush is and what he's done to this country, one only look at the reaction around the world to the announcement that Obama will be moving to Pennsylvania Avenue in February. Hell, even the FRENCH approved! That, my friends, is historical by itself.

Now it'll be interesting to see what happens from here... My only fear is that the American people and to some extent the people around the world have raised the bar for Obama so high that anything he does will be seen as falling short.

We shall see. These are no doubt going to be interesting times.
