My thoughts exactly. There are times when he makes decisions that I don't like/agree with, but there's a comfort in knowing that he's a good man and will make the right decision more often than not. <3

I don't expect I'll agree with anybody all the time ('cause that would be insane). All I'm really looking for in a president is that he/she is intelligent, not-crazy and doesn't have any daddy issues. So, the above means Obama is hittin' it out of the park by my standards!

Almost every day I draw hearts around the man, Z. I swear to god. Our president is made of awesome. Even when I don't agree, I feel as though he is a good man making rational decisions for the greater good of the country.

This is about me coming home and finding out that you addressed the Alleged Racial Profiling of Henry Louis 'Skip' Gates^* and immediately thinking AND THAT IS WHY I BUSTED MY ASS MAKING HUNDREDS OF CALLS.

I loved that he acknowledged the racism openly, because he's been so careful about that. (And I wish I could find a TV interview I swear I saw Obama do after the 2004 DNC speech, because I'm sure he talked about being stopped by the cops when he was out jogging in his new neighbourhood soon after he moved to Hyde Park. I'm pretty sure I wasn't hallucinating that.)

Did Obama say post-racial in that press conference? Or are you talking about general asshattery?

No, that's just general news coverge fuckwittery. Something the networks came up with during and since the election to say 'see! we're not racist. How can we have a black president and be called racists?'

It's all post-racism until the white guys don't get their way. THEN IT IS OPPRESSION.

Ugh, asshats.
