Obama is now our president!

I got goose bumps watching the inauguration of Obama as our president today! didn't you??! Especially looking at the throngs of people braving the cold to get a glimpse of history!



Yeh is all I can say! I was a bit disappointed tho by a couple of things like Aretha Franklin for one. She sounded awful and couldn't seem to hit the high notes. Obama's speech was a bit flat to me also. I also didn't like what Michelle was wearing. It looked dowdy,sorry! And the poem..well she aint no Maya Angelou is she?!




(totally unrelated but, I love and feed the birds as I live near a park so..)this is what greeted me this morning! Yes it is a piliated woodpecker. isn't he lovely?!??

Obama Wins!

Obama!! Now that's what I'm talking about....They say he is our first Black President but I say he is our first multi-cultural president as he is black,Hawaiian and part white as had a white mother. He does not view the USA as white black or bipartisan but the United STates! This intelligent,inspiring,creative,innovative outlook will get him far in these trying times and huge challenges facing him and his new administration but.. I think he will meet them head on and with grace, the same grace and class he exhibited thru his whole campagain unlike the attacks of his rival mcCain and the nasty Palin. Ugh! and good riddans is all I can say to her although it is said she has plans for bigger and better things so I think we will hear more of her and her hatefulness, unfortunately. I know I for one won't bring my dog anywhere near her for fear she'd think it's a wolf and shoot it! How about you? Are you happy Obama won too? Feel free to leave a post. Unlike other slanted blogs you see around, I will print your comment even if you don't share my glee! dlol..
