There's really only one story today. it's the Coronation, naw, I mean, er, Inauguration of Barack Obama. There are many people who are out-of-their-minds in excitement over this scene!
- It's the first Black American President. The older you are, the more amazing this milestone is, for you!
- Other people are celebrating the end of George Bush's time at the White House. I'm not going to bash Bush. It serves no purpose. Let's hope that we can learn from his administration. Tactful? Yes, I could've been in politics!
- Many people are celebrating HOPE! Yes, hope that the things that are screwed up can be fixed.
I am writing this, two hours before the ceremony. (The picture is from the 2005 Inauguration of GWB.) The tremendous outpouring of support for Obama is the real story! It's safe to say that we've never seen anything like this - in several respects.
This should be a most interesting time for Americans and the world.
