I wanted to belatedly thank the moderate, thoughtful Republicans who added their votes to help give their country a fighting chance.

They All Know

Please. The dude is eligible to be POTUS; he is American-born. Hawaii was made a state in 1959, same as Alaska. This "they all knew, it's a conspiracy" stuff is tripe. And how nice that they got a black guy to spew this tripe out because if a white guy said it people could cry racism.

Wonder who the press secretary will be for Obama?

How many will we go thru? Would it be amazing that they would stick with one for the whole term?

I would be very surprised if Obama had only one press secretary throughout his entire term(s). I cannot recall a president in the past twenty years who had a single press secretary for the whole of his term(s).

McCain/Palin had Joe Six-Pack...ha! We've got Joe Cool!

Anyone care to bet how many assassination attempts will be made on the President elect, during his term?  

I'll start the bidding at 12.  There have already been two.

2 already?  ive heard of plots, but not attempts yet.  what counts as an assasination attempt?

[3deroticer]

I saw a drawing of Rosa Park sitting on the bus next to a drawing of Barack sitting in the presidential limousine. Kind of a nice perspective of how far we have come as one nation.

I'm looking forward to the day when a Native American has a chance!  Then we'll have come a long way.

Blacks were enslaved, most natives/indians/amerinds were slaughtered.

There have not been two attempts on his life; there have been two publicly-revealed plots on his life, and they were both caught in the fairly early planning stages, fortunately. Except for the events of 11/22/63, the Secret Service very rarely drops the ball. Maybe not as good as Shin Bet, but damned effective and thorough at what they do.

The die is cast. The Rubicon is crossed. History is to be made.

 An 'Obama Defecating' Xmas Ornament?



From Reuters:

Figurines known as "caganer" of U.S. President-elect Barack Obama are sold at the Santa Llucia Christmas market in central Barcelona December 1, 2008. Catalans hide "caganers", or defecators, in Christmas Nativity scenes then invite friends to hunt for them during Christmas celebrations. The "caganers", which symbolise defecating and fertilizing the earth, are believed to bring prosperity and luck for the coming year.

The perfect gift for your true-believing friends.

The "caganers", which symbolise defecating and fertilizing the earth, are believed to bring prosperity and luck for the coming year.

Or as we call it here in our country, "hope and change."

Yes we can!

Bone, I didn't see you working on the Fred Harris campaign in 1976. Were you too young? I sent money; the guy who replaced Harvey Milk on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1978 (Harry something... Harry Bliss? Dammit, I can't remember) had worked in Harris's campaign.
