Historic Moment

We have a new President.

I have mixed feelings. Not about Obama--I am ecstatic to have him as my President! Elated. Inspired. At times, on the verge of tears (happy ones). But I'm worried about how people are behaving. Today we celebrate the future. Don't use today as an excuse to get one last, "Eff you, Bush!" in there. People booing Bush? Not cool. He's leaving now. Let it go. You can disagree with him, sure, but don't kick a guy when he's down. He knows he's unpopular. Just let him go.

Also, does anyone else think it's tacky to wear an Obama hat at Obama's inauguration? What is this, a Cubs game? Okay, now I'm just being judgmental.

Anndd I'm stopping with the negativity. I wrote a whole bunch more stuff about the hypocrisy of being compassionate toward everyone except conservatives, but, you know, I don't want to post that today. Maybe I won't ever post it. To paraphrase Obama: it's time to be positive. It's time to get to work making the world better. So I'll stop complaining.

Hurrah hurrah, Inauguration Day!
