Gentle Readers, I just watched the Inauguration of the 44th President of our Nation- Barack Obama. His speech moved me to tears in that his words signaled the beginning to a new Progressive shift for our society as well as a validation of the Social Contract.
Today I witnessed the most important event in my life. As a Progressive I was beginning to lose hope that our Country could get back on the path that was created in 1776. I was getting to the point that I would never live to see this day, but it did come… “Day shall come again.” Tolkien.
When George Bush entered the helicopter to take him away from D.C., Betts popped a bottled of champaign and we toasted the dawning of a New World.
Truly this is a Blessed day.
I know Barack would want us to be in a “reach across the aisles” mode, but I couldn’t help screaming at the TV, when Shrub exited the White House: “Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out! And leave the cable box. That’s for the next tenant.”
