President Obama

[MantidLord]

Well, for all of you americans and american "watchers", Barrack Obama unofficially was elected president of the United States of America. Depending on wether or not McCain does a recount. (which I wouldn't considering the margin of victory). The first bi-racial president, let's see what, if anything, unfolds throughout his presidency. Much respect to both candidates, but I'm just glad it's over.(sick of the commercials, although it did give me a day off of school )

Sick of it as well. Glad it is over but not happy with the results.

On the bright side, though, I had worried that Gov. Palin's opposition to funding for fruit fly research would block my application for photoperiod funding. Those daylight bulbs cost nearly $5.00......

I'm also glad its over. Happy with the results aswell. This is was my first year able to vote and it couldn't have gone any better

 

[The_Asa]

Glad it's over...but like Rick, definitely not happy at all with the results. <_<

I too am glad the election is over. The results are not what I wanted either but I am hopeful that Obama will not be all bad. If he follows through on his campaign promise of change, maybe the changes won't be all bad. I do think that his election is an important historic milestone that I did not think would happen in my lifetime.

I am optimistic...

I am excited about the new president and hopeful for the future of my kids and a rebuilt US economy



I just hope we can all unite and work toward a better future for our kids and grandkids.

I thought Obama's speech was the most moving moment I've ever seen on live TV.

(Here's a link to the fruit fly story that Phil was referring to...for those of you that didn't hear about it http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/261583 )

Guiness is the worst beer I've ever tasted.

 

[lancaster1313]

I really like Guinness, but it is not for everyone. Most people I know won't even drink the Guinness extra stout, but that is what I usually buy. More for me. :lol:

 

[myles]

guinness is gorgeous , obama and his wife couldnt get enough of it , you yanks dont get the real guinness i had a pint in new york and it was awful

 

[patrickfraser]

Who cares that "your's" tastes better "over there" than the swill here.

Probably the reason the president was telling jokes was to avoid letting it pass his lips. Always so PC.
