  • From the start I believed that character and the way he was running his campaign showed what we could expect from him as president.

    As far as policy, I always figured that it's going to be the Congress that passes the legislation. And that was a battle for another day.

    I have great hopes here. But I'm also realistic and I don't expect the moon. I wish for it. But I'll be glad most of all for a president whose values I can respect and who clearly respect us.

    Glad this got on the rec list!

  • I'm pretty sure the "we're the ones we've been waiting for" is a Native American saying. But it comes from some culture that is passing along the wisdom that you don't look for some outside force. Instead you realize it's up to you!

    Amazing, actually, how one person can become so universally disliked!

    And he's sure no expert on the US either!

  • Ok. We now need a word to "call out" nonsensical McShamisms.

    If MsSame (that was an error... but hey, why not?) makes statements that defy, undermine, and obliterate logic, they are McShamisms.

    Ban McShamism. Ban speech which destroys logic! Do not succumb to nonsense!
