Look to the sky above and the mud below,
Something drives me crazy, got to got to get away,
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye!

They ask how we can have so much hope in him?

After the last eight years it's the only thing we have left to give.

After the last eight years it's the only thing we have left to give.

After the last eight years, it's one of the best things we have to give. Hope, optimism, and the desire to apply them. I am amazed at how much we still hope to achieve after the damage wrought over the last eight years.

And I'm saddened that 48 percent of the population voted largely out of fear of change. Possibly the same kind of personality that would have stayed on board the Titanic.

Read a funny description about this on a forum today. Poster was responding to people who were irritated by all the inauguration news.

He said, "If you rape a bunch of people in the ass with a corn cob each day for eight years, they're going to celebrate "We're Not Getting Raped in the Ass by a Corncob Day" when it arrives."

Crass. Low-class. Entirely apropos.

Tried explaining this to The Wife today. After the whole thing, she said "What's a corn cob?"

Lollerific. Happy We're Not Getting Raped In The Ass With A Corncob Day to you too!

I feel like we should celebrate by making popcorn.

I'm willing to bet if you add modifiers like "bitch" and "motherfucker" bush would overtake Obama.

True enough. I was wondering if Bush had pre-pardoned Rummy and Rove and crew, at which point "motherfucker" and other expletives would have entered my own descriptors indefinitely, when I came across this on Wikipedia's list of pardoned people (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_pardoned_by_George_W._Bush):
# Delano Abraham Nixon (Forging the endorsement on a U.S. Treasury check)[8]

Well, with a name like that, no wonder he felt he had a right to mess with treasury notes. He's a veritable list of dead presidents, himself!

Even so, I do not understand the idea of pardoning anyone for something before they've been charged. I know Gerald Ford did it for Nixon, and recall that it was considered illegal but for some reason it was let slide.

I still think Bush should be tried as a criminal. Like your logo, I would like to see him given a fair trial. After a week at Guantanamo... but that just makes me petty.
