"What has always made this country great is the belief that everybody has got a chance," Obama said. "Regardless of race, regardless of creed."Indeed. Disagreements, criticisms, and other acts of profunditerotery* aside, I remain proud of having Mr. Obama as my President. I was proud of his predecessor as well, so I suppose the preceding won't mean much with some people.
*Nothing wrong with sacrificing a bit of the English language when it fails to provide more suitable fodder. In this case, I thought of the following as I was typing.
- profound - (what writer is not seeking a concise phrase that illuminates the human condition?)
- pundit - (most bloggers carp a lot, too)
- idiot - (the better bloggers will admit to moments of idiocy before all four limbs are tied behind their backs)
- erotic - ('cause you always get accused of screwing someone)
