I couldn't watch that Oval Office Obama speech the other night. I just couldn't. Well okay I tuned in for a few seconds. I saw him there in HD, and snapped off the tv in disgust.
I remember how in awe, how proud I was, we all were, when he'd been elected. Remember election night? Millions they said were in the streets from coast to coast, and around the world.
How I, and my pals were enraptured by the first photos of him in the Oval office behind that desk where all the bucks stopped.
However now,..my g-d.
I cannot describe the depth of disappointment, utter betrayal, and seething contempt I have for that person. Some have likened it to a messy personal relationship breakup. You thought, "...this is the guy,..my guy." "I can trust him."
Five minutes later he's banging your sister on the front lawn.
That rat fucking bastard.
Nuff Said.

Fairly unequivocal there Sydney.
I break my own rule about angry, hostile posts. Well it's my blog, and I'll freak out if I want to.
I'm just seriously emotional about all this.
We waited 40 years, and were fooled again.
Disappointing, yes, but just think what we could have had instead: a semi-senile warrior guy with Madame Flake beside him. YIKE!
I'm thankful, just not as thankful as I'd like to be. And the breathtaking fact that we actually got a Black guy in there at last. You can't take that away.
Problem was making the guy into the Messiah. He never was that, never could be. Best we can hope for is someone a little better than the other guy. I think we did get that -- no more, but at least that.

I seldom watch or listen to these speeches. What exactly did he say?
I think Ed's right about the Messiah build-up. I'm rather disappointed, but I never had my hopes built up all that high.
Sid, with all due respect,
