I have never been too political but the shape this country is in has been getting to me and this
year got me a little more fired up in that dept. I could hardly tear myself away from the TV
today and I just keep hoping that things are gonna turn around. When the Bushes got into
that huge helicopter, I kept thinking, "the big green bird flies the turkey away." Tim said
he kinda felt bad for him and thought it must be so hard to leave and I, who am usually the
bleeding heart type, was like "hurry up and get that bird in the air." Good grief what a mess
these last 8 years have been and I have said it before, I honestly don't think he was ever truly
elected, at least that last time, I know he wasn't. I have had an old song stuck in my head all
day and wish someone would have thought to perform it especially since it could not be more
right for this occasion and half of the artists that have performed for the new president have
covered this tune. It's an old Curtis Mayfield song that he wrote after a civil rights march on
Washington. It's "People Get Ready." Some of you younger folk may know the Jeff Beck/Rod
Stewart version. I tell ya, listen to it on you tube and tell me if that would not have been
the PERFECT theme song for this day in history. Well, I've got faith and I'm ready to get
on board!

Amen! I just hope this new guy is half as good as he sounds...if so, we'll be ok.
Did you hear what the crowd was singing as the big green bird took off over the mall "na na na na, hey hey, goodbye" I won't feel sorry for him until he feels sorry for messing so many things up.
I didn't hear them singing that.
Ouch! I saw "old HW Bush" on an interview and he thinks his son did a wonderful job and also thinks his other son should run.
I don't think anyone named Bush is gonna get a table at McDonald's in that town, forget getting elected!!
