oh yea we have survived another year. We have survived turmoil, strife, the mundane and the ridiculous. Its only a mere pity that someone like Obama is only beginning. Even though it is a very great thing that we have managed to overcome racial issues to elect a black president, the fact that that president has caused more problems than we need is in a word... sad. So, let's hope with the new year, that he will pull his head out of his ass and become the president that we wish him to be. The greatest thing we could have for the new year is not a president thats a minority or a low unempoyment rate or medical care or whatever. No, the greatest thing we can have is...hope. Because if we have no hope then we have given up and America does not ever give up. So I hope you all have a great new year and many more to come
