25. When he was speaking, was it my imagination
or did he not use a teleprompter? I mean, he wasn't staring blankly into the camera. ;)

Oh, and did you see Helen Thomas in her rightful place in the front row?? :bounce:

28. Yes, Helen was in the front.
It is so nice to have a President that can talk without any outside help.

I love watching our new President.

14. I have to keep correcting myself.
I go around calling him "Barack", like he's some guy I hang out with.

I am still in awe of the fact that he is President Obama. :)
