Based on my recollection of the campaign, here are some expectations of Obama's first 100 days.

  • Troops out of Iraq
  • US friends with all other countries
  • Close the Gitmo terrorist holding facility
  • Government paid mortgages and free gasoline (according to Peggy Joseph)
  • Focus on war in Afganistan
  • Increase transparency and accountability in Washington
  • Eliminate America's use of coal
  • Stop Earth's temperature from rising
  • Kill Bin Laden
  • End partisanship in Washington
  • Stop oceans from rising
  • Lower unemployment
  • Increase value of investments (i.e stock market)
  • Lower taxes

Day 85. First family = FIRST-TASTIC!

From CNN

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Bo the Portuguese water dog made his White House debut under cloudy skies Tuesday afternoon, spending several minutes taking his new family on a lively romp over the South Lawn with frequent stops for hearty sniffs at his new surroundings.

OMG, this family is so AWESOME! Now, I know the dog was supposed to be a 'rescue' dog, but those allergies well, that'll put the damper on quickly. You know the intent was there and the symbolism of that is all that really matters--substance is WAY over-rated. Besides, you could argue that it was 'rescued' from Ted Kennedy, (who probably is into these dogs to avoid another Mary Jo Koepeckne incident). hehe.

Even the name 'Bo', it sounds so southern red-neckedy. Like one of the Duke boys. These people are reaching out to the diversity that is America. They are FIRST-TASTIC! Fine! Maybe it is just a little self-serving and arrogant being that those are also his initials, but remember, HE WON!

OK, gotta go throw-up, now.
