One standout aspect of Obamamania is the expectations of the black community. They see the inauguration as the most significant event for blacks since Lincoln emanciated the slaves. They see it as the realisation of Martin Luther King's dream, and a bright new future.
It is doubtful if this warm inner glow can survive the cold light of dawn when the priorities of government will put the advancement of the blacks as a special case well down the list of priorities.
The colour of Obama's skin will lose all relevance.
In response to blanket, non-stop and seemingly-to-be-never-ending media coverage, I am preparing a little prayer to the Almighty for a week down the track...
"Oh Lord, PLEASE deliver us from the multitude media sins of the [size=+2]Obamafest[/size] during these never-ending days of unbridled [size=+2]Obamamania[/size]. A-men"
Or, should that be O-men?
Yep. There will be pictures of the family leaving the most miserable dog pound in Washington with the new puppy. I can't help laughing at the thought of the house training happening on the plush carpets of the White House! Here's a hint, Mr President: soda water removes stain and smell of doggie doo doo.I suppose we can expect the next big outburst of media Obamamania to come when the new dog is installed in the White House.:headshake
America has sent about 30 thousand troops to Afghanistan to protect the free world from terrorism.
Yesterday about 40 thousand armed troops and police were deployed to protect a democratically elected President from his own people.

Australia is probably the only country where you can be boring and win an election.

What did you think of Obama's speech 'call' to Muslims?
