2. Hi Patsy!
I love what he's done so far, and it's only Day Two!!

And doesn't Hillary look happy? I was really angry at her during the primaries, but I think that she was an excellent choice by Obama for SOS!

:hi:

5. She looks radiant
and that speech this morning choked me up. I also got a big kick out of Robert Gibbs' first briefing.

The adults are back in charge! :woohoo:

I missed the speech itself, so I hope it's posted in the video forum.

9. So, crazy Kit Bond was on Hardball earlier
His argument for leaving Gitmo open is that adding 250 prisoners to the US would "flood the system." He's a loon.

I've really enjoyed watching the Repubs today trying to make a case to leave it alone.

13. "Now they're eating each other's carcasses."
:rofl:, Keith.

Tweety had a great rant on Cheney and Sccoter at the beginning of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue tonight. It may be up on MSNBC.

15. He's been doing that a lot lately.
So, he's either changed his stripes, or he finally feels free to say what he really feels.

32. Haiku for Yoo.

Used first on logic,
And proceeding on from there,
Torture spreads like fire.

18. This NSA stuff is really creepy.
And it REALLY pisses me off.

I knew, of course, that the NSA was spying on Americans, but good God, it IS worse than I thought!

20. So, I guess they really did appreciate you saying "hi" to them.
Since most people just pretended they weren't there.
