Rosa sat so that Martin could walk.
Martin walked so that Barack could run.
Barack ran so that our children could fly.

God bless America.

I wish I could take credit for that, but I actually read that somewhere last night. I believe it was going around in a text message or something. It sums things up better than any gigantic NY Times analysis piece, that's for sure.

Oh, oh, oh. I thought I couldn't cry anymore today, but I can. I'm so happy for all of you.

Plenty of us were crying last night, too! I still can't believe it. Thank God, we finally did something right. It's been a while, you know?

That's a beautiful way to describe these people and this moment in history. Thank you!

I wish I could say those words were mine, but it's something I read last night, in a news story about reaction to the election. I think it was a text message that was going around. It sure sums things up.

Oh, that was beautifully expressed. And yes. Yes.

I read that last night, in a news story about election reaction. I think it's from a text that was going around. It just did it for me, you know? God, what an amazing night. I'm so happy, and so proud.

That's beautiful.

Y'know, I read all these long deep-thinky pieces about the election, and then I read that "Rosa sat" thing. And it just did it for me. Much better than the thinky stuff. :)
