Shocked & Disgusted

[AKA_Monet]

Umm... Why are we arguing about this?

Do you all think fools would really want to stave off the Inauguration without the Secret Service and other agencies NOT finding it out? Good luck with that...

And so what if folks voted for a candidate based on the color of his skin? What difference does it make after the votes are tallied? Yes, some people voted for Obama SOLELY on skin color. Yes, some people voted for McCain SOLELY on "lack of skin" color... (I really think people voted against McCain because of Sarah Palin and her antics--SNL/Bill Maher/Daily Show/Chocolate News made some money on lampooning her...) So does that make people who voted against her sexist? And think, we ALL voted against Bush--which makes us anti-dunces...

There were 7 other sets (I think) of those who were running for President--not saying they were viable--but they were running for the US presidency...

So how do they rate?

The fact is all of us have to start doing some gross introspection as to how we define ourselves as Americans. Because things done changed...

It is the dawn of a new era...

The World is happy because of this.

Is racism dead?

Since the campaigns were likened to be the birth pangs. Maybe President Obama's election is the actual birth.

Now we have to take care of a newborn--change it's diapers, which takes ~2 weeks for chit to get stinky--but we love OUR baby nonetheless... We have to feed this newborn, give it tummy time, breastfeed it, burp it... It's going take awhile to nurture this newborn in yearly times. And we will have to readjust our lifestyles to take care of our baby--this new Age...

Will we do early childhood development to allow our new Age baby thrive?
