Sheesh! Having relegated America's electors to helpless bystanders, the bloke has the cheek to exhort them to be 'citizens, not spectators'! Hail to the thief, indeed ...

That bit about 'bound by ideals that go beyond our backgrounds ... above our interests,' - sounds sadly tenable about a goodly proportion of those who did get their votes counted, I s'pose. Dunno how to defend that 'trust over cynicism' bit, though ...

Hope 'church and charity' are setting up their soup kitchens - they're gonna be busy with all this 'encouraging personal responsibility' that's gonna be visited upon the masses. Time to mount those 'easy attacks' against those 'needed reforms', eh? If the attacks are gonna be that easy, exactly what terrifying reforms has he in mind (or should I say his Attorney-General's mind)?

Commiserations on a dignified and uneventful transfer of power from the collaborators to the occupiers, LBOsters. So what's the dirt on the police breaking up the protest marches, anyway?

Oh, and what's the latest on the Mongolian famine, the Congolese assassination and the Philippines' own little peaceful transition of authority? Anything but #!* jazz, pleease ...

Cheers, Rob.
