Obama at the Lincoln Memorial last weekend...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is getting closer...we can almost touch it....feel it...see it ....Change....There is talk on the Airwaves about Things we need to hear..." Closing Gitmo"....those words are music to my ears. ( and yet yesterday the King gave a presser, and he is boggled WHY Gitmo is a problem or THAT it has ruined America's Image....shows what a sociopath he really is that he can not recognize it for the Crime it is....).Down Below I also Blogged About What Bush had to say about Katrina Yesterday...Never doubt that in Bush's head he has re-written ALOT of Eight years of His OWN Hellish History of his own Titannical Administration. If you don't want to read my continued angst about Katrina, you can always go give Torrance a read, his top three posts will make you think long and hard....( Actually add him to your Blogroll....he's great..) And For Some More Great News, look who's back with Letters to read and admire, NEWSGUY.....add him to your blogroll too.
I am so proud of so Many Bloggers that we are seeing this through....that we did not Surrender....that we did not give up...on each other or Ourselves....or on Getting OUR Country back from the Neoconal Criminals....

6-6 and I still have not decided whether to go to DC...there are alot of factors in the decision...For now we are coping with alot of snow as you can see in the cellphone photo of this am.... it is in the teens and falling....but by 6am the Chicago Blizzard arrived complete with Frigid temps....So we are in Wait And See Mode......for me...watching him get up every day and put on his Obama T Shirt...that is HOPE.6-6 really wants to go to the Lincoln Memorial...I told him it might be a bit crowded ?.... We'll see...

"Right Here, Right Now" by Jesus Jones:
A woman on the radio talked about revolution
When its already passed her by
Bob dylan didnt have this to sing about you
You know it feels good to be alive
I was alive and I waited, waited
I was alive and I waited for this
Right here, right now
There is no other place I want to be
Right here, right now
Watching the world wake up from history
I saw the decade in, when it seemed
The world could change at the blink of an eye
And if anything
Then theres your sign... of the times
I was alive and I waited, waited
I was alive and I waited for this
Right here, right now
I was alive and I waited, waited
I was alive and I waited for this
Right here, right now
There is no other place I want to be
Right here, right now
Watching the world wake up from history
Right here, right now
There is no other place I want to be
Right here, right now
Watching the world wake up from history
Right here, right now
There is no other place I want to be
Right here, right now
Watching the world wake up...
thanks for the love sister
always....I love how you write..( and I lurk too much ;-)
Yeah...I too want OUR country back.
Thanks for that...It is time. Way past time. I couldn't believe that joke of a presser yesterday. How ignorant that idiot is. 30,000 off rooftops...he didn't have a thing to do with that. That was the chopper pilots not him. And it wasn't 30,000 either...think he was trying to blow his horn just a little loud... god I will be glad when he is gone.
He can't leave too soon.
(and on a happy note, Ingrid's Bday tomorrow.)
Sorry about that blizzard. I was aiming for Maryland to annoy my friend Louis - but apparently my aim was off and I didn't fling it hard enough. Oopsie.
I am taking Tues. off work so I can sit at home and drink cocoa and watch the inauguration (one of the few times I will turn on the TeeVee this year). Only 6 days... kinda hard to believe I started that countdown over 2 years ago, eh? Must have been 20 people asked me what it meant back then. Nobody at all asks anymore, and I see a lot more folks with countdown timers on their blogs too.
Hard to sink in.
Sewmouse:::
I know...it's kinda surreal...it would be great if the Country was not in such dire straits eh ? BUT it will still be amazing....
yeah...LOL about the Countdowns...we have had sooooo many now.....good for you for taking off.....I requested off...and really wanted to drive there with 6-6...but it does not look good...ya, know...but to be home and watch with 6-6- that will be good...and to know we are ALL watching it together.....
( and oh hell, if I am home...I will just have to blog History ;-)
( thanks for the blizzard...whoa- it is a monster...hmm, maybe NOW it will head to Maryland ......LOL....as long as it is Done by the 20th...)
Maria:::
hey there...yeah...I would gladly heave his damn stuff on the WH lawn...right now...yup...not soon enough....
Annette:::
yeah..Ignorant- that is the word I forgot to use....what a shithead...unreal...I sat there and when he started about Katrina I thought my head exploded....unreal....how he rewrites history in his damn head....dangerous and incompetent is HOW history will Remember....thanks to the Bloggers !!!
Nice pic of the snow! Sorry to hear that it doesn't look like you and 6-6 will get to go to DC for the inauguration.
I watched Keith and Rachel last night and saw some of the clips of Bush that you wrote about. The man is bonkers I tell ya, bonkers!!
Hairball:::
I missed Keith...shoot...I would have loved to have seen What Keith and Rachel did with that presser....
he is NUTZ....totally...
Rachel was priceless on the presser.. you should be able to get it on line... she nailed him to the wall with it... especially the Katrina part.
Yes...I am housesitting for a friend so that's what I will be doing.. glued to the tee vee..
Countdown. Ten...Nine...Eight...All systems are go, Seven,,,Six..We have ignition...
Newsguy:::

((( Love the New blog...Linked you above...)
Annette::
I found it...awesome...she rocked it...BTW I also found Ann Coulter's VIEW appearence- Another Stellar moment- Will blog tomorrow....OMG the women let her have it- a thing of beauty...Whoopi deserves some kind of metal...( gee I might have to give the ol TV more time....the Hearings have started so I did go buy Popcorn tonight...)
All that snow makes me crazy (that is the japanese translation of of the movie title, "Fargo")!
We are all on countdown watch. Can't wait 'til Tuesday. Should be a national holiday. MLK day on Monday, Obama Inauguration on Tuesday! I'll be watching from home, but expect there to be many lumps in the throat & misty eye moments.
ps, "watching the world wake up from history" really says it all. Thanks for always putting everything together!
Hey DK...
the Countdown is On..I have MUSIC for Everyday...yup..I am READY.....and yeah I will be crying my eyes out...if we get there, of if we are here .....6-6 and I have not decided...BUT we are ALL there in spirit....MLK and the Inauguration....WOW...what a week...pinch me..is it real???
Hi E ~ I'm just stoked we are in the final countdown. I notice all the news about Bush starts with *in his final days in office" or on his way out... YES!!!
Whew, all that winter storm stuff does not sound favorable for making it to the inauguration. They will have the place crawling w security...
13,000 Ntl Guard
Police in riot gear

I bet unless you have a special pass, you can't get anywhere near.They are shutting down bridges etc....
Fran::
I think the weather is going to make things pretty tough...I did get some work done to my car...BUT my tires are a different story....and there is ALOT of ice and crappy roads..and it is below zero tonight...and is supposed to be like this through the weekend......and we are supposed to get snow for the next three days ( I am confused- Gryphen will have to set me straight- this is an Alaskan storm....but I thougt when it is this cold it didn;'t snow...yeah...right...)
Yeah I saw about the security....I guess in a way that is good ? I don't even know..
I know they are expecting 5 million....
6-6 knows that it is a wait and see..and I promised him we would have a nice celebration here if we can't go...so we wait and see at this point ...sadly..
( I really want to go...you know that...BUT....Life might get in the way..I also don't know if I have off from work yet...schedule does not come out until LATE Friday...)
