Well, I don't know about you, but I for one, am certainly glad Barack Obama is our president

Lord knows that Osama bin Laden would still be roaming around, our seas would be infested with pirates and that poor Trayvon Martin would have just been labelled 'some thug who had it coming' had We The People not elected Our President.

And for the shitstorm they've been facing, THANK YOU JESSE JACKSON AND AL SHARPTON for not giving up on the cause of justice.

Their lies have been laid plain.

They are grasping at straws now.

(and saying the title of my post to righties drives them BATTY!!! Say it! Say it like they said, "Well i am so glad George W Bush was our President during 911" <<----I'm not. I think 911 would never have happened if he hadn't stolen the 2000 election.)

'Amen' simply means 'let it be', or 'it is so'. No connotations of faith unless you believe that there are...

I, for one, am glad that Barack Obama is our President!

It was in the Onion, I believe. Well, he sure as hell does that job better than damned near any President I remember. (FDR was President when I was born, but I don't remember him much.) Obama is doing as good or better than every President since, and he's doing it with a far greater handicap: the most unAmerican right-wing in Congress EVER.

My only fault with the Obama Admin is not holding them accountable.
