I'll drink to that. I was 14 years old when Bush was first elected, so I have never lived in a world where I was old enough or politically aware enough to live and breathe that pride. I want to effin' cry.

I'm very excited that my third election is going great. I guess third times the charm.

God I'm proud to be an American.

I was never ashamed to be an American; none of this was my fault. I voted for Kodos.

I never thought I'd ever be proud of our country again. I'm on the verge of happy tears, after having been a nervous wreck for the past... 8 years?

President Obama.

President Barack Hussein Obama. Oh, yes. There, I said it!

(I'm still worried about Prop 8 though...)

A bit off the Slog radar, but it looks like Marilyn Musgrave is going down for the count in CO-04.

Yay! I'm so proud of you guys. But what will Canadians have to be smug about now? Fuck.

With the tones of these comments on Slog all day? Long way to go, I'm afraid.

It's great to be American! We really do progress. Even when it looks like we go backwards--e.g. the G.W. Bush years--we actually go forward.

I've never been ashamed to be American. The President is not the Government, and the Government is not the Nation.
