That Cheshire Cat Smile...
Thats all.. it just warms my heart.. When Obama finished his 60 minute interview, talking about the college national championships...and then he flashed that smile.

No wonder people feel hopeful with him taking the reigns of power.

2. ~rofl~.. I hear you..
Isn't it nice though to have a President that works and thinks through positive action instead of "fear". That hit me a while back, when you sit and listen to republicans it is always a "fear" based conversation.

5. Are we mesmerized?

When the guy smiles, I feel good. His smile is sure, sincere and confident, as if a real, competent adult is in charge. It sure as fuck beats that goofy, drunken, half-wit grin we've been subjected to for 8 hellish years.

6. No kidding, when I think about that half baked smile of Bush
I think of a frat boy who has had one too many and has the car keys to big ole SUV... dangerous and you just feel ill at ease knowing that group has the reigns of power

8. "Hell, he's a natural-born world-shaker."
Edited on Sun Nov-16-08 08:58 PM by loindelrio
That's right. You know, that, that Barack smile of his. He had it on his face right to the very end. Hell, if they didn't know it 'fore, they could tell right then that they weren't a-gonna beat him. That old Barack smile. Oh, Barack. He was some boy. Cool Hand Barack. Hell, he's a natural-born world-shaker.
