Wow. the way the entire world is reacting you'd think it was the Messiah...or something.

I think, after several years of almost constant fear-mongering and hate-speech, a world-wide joygasmic reaction is probably healthy and speaks volumes about general apathy being maybe not as widespread and destructive as it may seem to be. It might seem like a zealous and overstated reaction on everybody's part, but there's a lot of emotion being built up and clogging the zeitgeist.

It's also really nice to see after the Canadian election, where thirty million dollars was spent to give us the exact same minority government we had before it because our Left is split up.

And we'll do it all again in another 10 months!

Save us, Obama!

It's particularly sad that she didn't get to see her grandson being voted in as president. Fuck, how proud would you be? Grandparents are usually impressed if you get a promotion at work, for fuck's sake!

As we enter a new era of equality for all people, the election of Barack Obama will decidedly be a milestone in U.S. history, undeniable proof that Americans, when pushed to the very brink, are willing to look past outward appearances and judge a person by the quality of his character and strength of his record. So as long as that person is not a woman.

The Onion makes me weep.

Once more The Onion produces pure comedy gold. It's a damn good one all round actually. It may not be on-topic for this thread but I do also recommend checking out their shocking expose about the Shitload Of Math Due Monday. Pulitzer would be proud.
