I’m ashamed to say I haven’t felt proud to be an American for a while. For the past eight years, I’ve felt our government was moving further and further away from representing the things I believe. In 2004, when “W” was re-elected to office I was stunned and have continued to feel amazed at just what this administration could get away with. I mean, we impeached a President for a blow job—well, for lying under oath about a blow job—but no one does anything about “W” lying (albeit not under oath) about reasons for taking our country to war, and... I could go on and on ranting about the things I hate about the current President/Administation, but we have to put all that behind us and focus on the change that will come.
We have made history! We have spoken, and we’ve gotten a taste of the power we hold if we’ll just stand together. Obama will need us behind him; he can’t do it alone, and it will be hard and it will take time, a lot of time.
