Tomorrow will be the day we inaugurate our first Black president. I am excited, but I must refrain from basking in the post-coital glow that would allow Barack Obama to roll over, ignore me, and disappear without leaving a note, or calling the next day.
The past 8 years have been like watching the “The Defecating Elephants and Poo-Flinging Monkey” act, in the 3-ring circus, known as “Government”, completely mess up the stage. The next act must clean up the stage and perform at the same time. Can you imagine a Black Irish Tenor trying to sing and shovel elephant dung at the same time?
I hope that he will keep his promises and fix this country, although I expect it will be an uphill battle the whole way.
There are those fearful morons who have already threatened his life, those that will disagree with him, just to disagree (often referred to as “Bi-Partisan politics”), and there are those that believe his shit doesn’t stink. This last group is probably the most damaging.
I hope we do not fall victim to our Slothfulness (laziness) when it comes to holding our elected officials to the promises they have made and the fact that it is the people who put them there; they MUST act in the best interests of the people, or we should remove them.
Too bad we did not do that with Dubya.
Well, here is to the next 4 years ( maybe 8 ) and hope that they get better and that America turns the corner and never goes back.
