Thank You, America

I'm glad I lived long enough to see this. Of course I voted for Obama because he was the better candidate. I don't care if he's white, black, or purple...I like his economic proposals, and he's very smart. As a constitutional scholar I think he will pick some excellent supreme court justices which will ultimately bode well for the gay rights issue.

I'm very disappointed in some of my fellow Americans on the extreme right wing side of things. Freerepublic has turned into a very, very nasty place and Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity are still playing the rev Wright video and talking about Ayers. I guess with any social progress there will always be knuckledraggers.

But we've made progress. I feel good about my country for a change.
