Obama 2012?

How lame can you possibly be?

Romney has the support of Clint Eastwood, George W. Bush, Kid Rock and Ann Coulter just and only over their shared racial identity. I might be wrong, though.

You even approved of the way he bullied all allies of America's who had made the right call and stayed out. (I vividly remember sitting in your car and hearing you say, "I strongly approve of inflicting pain on France right now." That was in early 2007.) Perhaps a little perspective is in order here.

I should also concede that my judgement then about the merits of the Iraqi intervention has since proven to be badly defective, and that it is possible that Chirac was trying to give us a helpful warning.

The morning was cold and the sky was bright. Aretha Franklin wore a large and interesting hat. Yo-Yo Ma urged his frozen fingers to play the cello, and the Reverend Joseph E. Lowery, a civil-rights comrade of Martin Luther King, Jr.,’s, read a benediction that began with “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” the segregation-era lamentation of American realities and celebration of American ideals. On that day in Washington—Inauguration Day, January 20, 2009—the blustery chill penetrated every coat, yet the discomfort was no impediment to joy. The police estimated that more than a million and a half people had crowded onto the Mall, making this the largest public gathering in the history of the capital. Very few could see the speakers. It didn’t matter. People had come to be with other people, to mark an unusual thing: a historical event that was elective, not befallen.

It's like Damn vs Darn

Kudos to someone for admitting that supporting the Iraq war was wrong. Low bar.
