The first Hawaiian president! Amazing isn't it?

Considering those japanese people are from a town called "obama" I don't know if it's genuine or if it's just an excuse to drink sake.

The last photo is Paris. You know they're getting shitfaced.

I "heart" the I "heart" Obama logo in the third picture.

Briefly. We've still got two more months of Bush.

But it's nice to see people's reaction to Obama becoming president.

"A lot of people told me they had tears in their eyes last night. I was one of them," Randa Habib, a Jordanian writer and political analyst, said Wednesday. "I saw his speech. I was very moved. This is a lesson to us all, that blacks and whites in America can have such a shameful past between them, yet they come together and learn how to live together."

...legions of jubilant supporters set off firecrackers in El Salvador, danced in Liberia and drank shots in Japan.

"Let me tell you that now I believe in American democracy," said Mostafa Eqbali, a merchant in the Iranian capital, Tehran.

You gotta love it.

I certainly love it.
Why some dildos can't expound on the positive is beyond me.
The ones that consistently want to keep the glass 1/2 empty love to loathe in their own self pity.

I have to wonder why people who aren't American would really care who it's President is.

I mean noone in the Philipines or Japan or France is going to get Health Care or change campaign financing laws or get an abortion because of US politics.
