22. You have no idea what I went through and the personal and financial costs I incurred
Edited on Tue Dec-07-10 11:25 PM by Subdivisions
in order to be with the President on his Inauguration Day. I live in Texas at the time and it was not easy to get to DC without putting myself in financial jeopardy. But I was there nonetheless, having spent the night in my truck the night before. Does anyone remember what the temperature was that night?

Were you there?

38. I love the Andy Griffith show.
I drive my friends and family nuts because I'm always saying things like, "This reminds me of the time Opie was saving his money to buy his little girlfriend a coat..." or "This is like that time Aunt Bea won all those appliances..."

I went to Mount Airy, NC a few years ago to visit Andy's hometown. I got to see this really cool Andy and Opie statue and the old squad car. The best part was when I first got out of the van on Main Street and heard the Andy Griffith song playing.

Yes, I'm strange.

18. I'll see you there
I was at the first one (came all the way from Salem Oregon, so many tears that day, including my own. Big moment in our history. I have to believe there is something in the works regarding his statement today. Through all of it remember the lonnngg list of his accomplishments compare to the previous two terms with the idiot.

26. I'll go this far with you...
...I'll vote for Obama if there's no primary challenge.

If he holds a big party in Grant Park in 2012, I'll pass this time.

28. I'd love to, though it'll depend on whether I have a job and money.
I for one am still being fucked by the Bush recession.

31. Count me in!
It's my fervent desire that this will REALLY let Obama know that what "we" consider a fight and what "he" considers a fight are different. I pray he comes out swinging next year! I WANT this man to succeed - he can bring so much!

44. He has to get nominated AND re-elected first.
That seems doubtful given his current numbers, his standing among the populace, the number of Democrats unhappy with his decisions, the loss of financial backing he had in 2008, and the general direction of his presidency.

Unless he drastically alters his leadership, he won't serve a second term.
