I love saying it. President Barack Obama. I love it that he is closing Guantanamo and halting Bush’s last minute legislation, like his awful awful awful plan to protect medical “professionals” who don’t think women should have access to birth control.
I love looking at pictures of Michelle and listening to her speak. She is seriously stunning and gracious and intelligent and articulate and stylish.
I love it that Hillary Clinton was cheered by the state department and got a little cocky, too. I really wanted her to be the president but I can settle for this, for now.
I love this new day.

Isn’t it fantastic? I can’t even work up a good rant because I’m all like ‘Ooh, HOPE!’

Me, too!! Michael and I were saying that it felt so good to actually say President Obama and to see Biden instead of Cheney, Hillary instead of Condi.
It is wonderful. It’s like having been lost in the woods for 8 years and finally seeing the path home.

Nice work getting rid of those nasty global gag laws too.
I know he can’t possibly live up to everyone’s expectations, but at least every move he’s making at the moment is in the right direction.
