Your Historic Day

Same reason Iran let the hostages go the day Reagan got elected.

I do believe we are headed for better times, but, like Obama says, we all have to do it together. We are all going to pay a price for the sins of the past few years.
We will come out of this and be a better country for it.

me too. walking the line..everyone is usually afraid too

There's an unbelievable amount of people that seem just orgasmic over Obama. I think a lot of them are people that were emotionally devastated during the last 2 elections and now finally, their guy has gotten in. The Dems whould have had a big celebration no matter which of their contenders won.

In 2000, I worked for a guy, a typical Portland ME libral, that was so devastated after the election went to Bush, that he had dark circles under his eyes and looked depressed for months. He swore he would never vote again, (I won a 30 pak of Bud from him over that one ). He thinks the world has now been saved.

what's done is done........
Obama is a great spokesman...I'll give him that. Time will tell and I know we all agree on one thing; we all hope for the best.

Can never be figured out, but how much of the problem can be attributed to:

1. Free market economy going to crap
2. Executive branch - i.e. Mr Bush (R)
3. Legislative branch - i.e Congress (D-for last two years...just a coincidence??)

I'd like to see that "house" cleaned out too.
Congress has an approval rating in the teens, much lower than W, yet the same knotheads keep getting reelected. Get what we deserve.

my only worry is the gun control freaks , I bet if I could get obama into a sand pit with some clays for shotgunning and some cans for the a/r   to shoot up he would realise that they dont kill people and they are fun to plink

62 I can see right through Blogo, i dont think that was his first time and would imagine all of his cronies had the state in thier palms too. its hard to pick up that type of practice with Obama, I dont see him as wanting to become a rich man, I really think he wants to go down in History as what he preaches...change, and in the 4 frickin short days, he is doing what he says. once again time will tell. this guy is intelligent you cant dispute that.
Ive been around people with big big money, they treated me differently, thier thoughts are different than mine and yours...being rich isnt enough for them,
thats how i think the last 8 years were run, more as a business than a government...its suppose to be for the people, by the people

Eric, put the cool aid down. He already is a rich man, and he went to Harvard. How many people in your family have gone to Harvard? He's hardly a man of the people.

He's likeable and strikes me as honest. I hope he is a good leader.

I heard today that all the Guatonomo prisoners are going to be housed in Mendina.

I do not believe any of these bums in Washington, let alone trust them.
As far as I am concerned, the less government I have in my life the better!
I think with this latest person you are going to see government grow and grow and grow.
And were all going to pay and pay and pay.
Sometimes I think we would be better off with the government doing nothing that way they do not screw it up.
I not to encouraged that the people that created the problem in the first place are capable of fixing it!

Did you see him ride Silver to the press conference this afternoon?!!?   

His are either the biggest or smallest in history!

Trillion dollar deficit, Bank Bailouts, Auto Bailouts, Trillion dollar Stimulas Package, State Bailouts, Credit Card Bailouts, Forclosure Bailouts, closing Gitmo with no idea where to put them..
When do we actually stop throwing money away that we do not have and making decisions with no real solution.
When does the government start tightening its belt like I have. Good idea to freeze salaries over $100,000 for White House staff... that just got hired... duhh.
Are we saying that we are on the right track now ?? I am not convinced...

Kris sorry to here the news from your neck of the woods, mad people are the problem not weapons.

Eric all I know a kid walked into a nursery killed 2 babies and a teacher with a knife and stabbed others a real mess over there, Kris will know the full story.
