Edited on Tue Jan-20-09 06:33 PM by jazzjunkysue
and I braced myself for the impact of the chimperor butchering the language and rationality,......

and instead, a beautiful, thoughtful, heartfelt voice of a deep, serious, emotional man shared his best wishes for Senator Kennedy's quick recovery.....

and that was the 10th or 12th time I started to choke up today.

I still haven't gotten used to it.

2. Me either. When I hear "The President", Bush's face pops into my mind.
Gotta work on changing the channel there FAST!

3. Get this- our President is a compassionate, thoughtful human being.
And a good person, to be trusted.


Read that one over a few times. Amazing, yes?

4. It still takes me by surprise and gives me a thrill!
Grab a box of tissues and go to www.whitehouse.gov :)

5. I Love That. On The Way Home I Heard "And Vice President..." And My Brain Automatically
finished the phrase with Cheney, but then a HUGE smile overcame my face when the phrase ended with "Joe Biden". It's all just so surreal, and just so damn amazing.

GOBAMA!

6. I think I need mental assistance.
I watched the parade on CSPAN..no talking just coverage. I realized that I smiled everytime President Obama or First Lady Michelle (damn, I like saying that) smiled. I'm like a freaking stalker...we're all friends in my head. When it ended, I got up to go get dressed for the balls.

I had to check myself. I'm not going anywhere??? TIVO is smoking in this house..I think I have everything possible recorded.
