The historian in me was excited beyond belief today. I never thought I’d see the day when we’d finally get someone other than a white male in the White House. I have great expectations of our new President and his administration. After a historic campaign with a black man and a woman both running for the highest office of our nation, history has been made. I’m still not sure why anyone in their right mind would want to be President, but I’m happy to let them have the job.
The only person in my house right now unhappy is the dog. She saw me in my sweats and thought WALK! Unfortunately the whole inaguration took longer than I expected, so her 45 minute dance between me and the door was all the exercise she received this morning. I do feel badly for her, but I couldn’t pass up the inauguration.
Dick Cheney looked like Dr. Strangelove, without the cigarette and solitary glove. I got a good laugh.
Congrats again Mr. Obama and good luck to you. The job before you is massive.
