…the almost right word

A change has come

November 5, 2008

in Politics, Reflections

It does restore some sense of faith in our democracy, some pride that, perhaps, we can elect a leader who represents the people.

The best post I have seen today was at I am Fuel, You are Friends. The images alone represent my hope for our country and, dare I say, my pride.

Thanks Nico for the image link.

It does restore a lot of hope, now if only we could take care of this Prop 8 mess. Le sigh.

I feel like I am out of good descriptors to describe how wonderful this was. So I’ll just stick with wonderful!!

I think that’s my favorite Obama logo. It sums up the present day so well.

I’ve had this logo saved since the day after election day. I love it!

    The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter -- it's the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.
