Status: offline 		Oh blow it.  I have had enough negativity to last me a whole year with the whole Obama/McCain thing.  And I hesitated posting this earlier because I didn't want to start yet another thread on the whole thing.  However, the beautiful Lady Tigresse posted something that made me feel compelled to post this link because I saw I wasn't the only person tired of all the sniping and negativity.
 
So, for some words of wisdom and feelings of hope, turn up your speakers and listen to the wonderful Maya Angelou on this election.

try this:

ef you a plumba or a trucka i don't care what you says,
i ain't your brutha sucka, cuz now i is the prez.

i think that works at least 2 rhymes into there.

Congratualations Mr Obama.  my sincere, and quite selfish hope, is  that you are the best president this country has ever seen.

I wanted to post this earlier as well as the video, but it wasn't working.  BBC must have been over loaded.
