What a show! There ain't a bidness like politics!

Myself, like 99.99999% of Americans, missed most of the Obama inauguration because I was working.

Whose brilliant idea was it to have us vote on a weekday and have an inauguration on a weekday?

No other country does that - voting and such ceremony is done on a holiday or on a weekend.

Anyway, back to what I saw live and online.

America is gaga...

Simply put, I am flabergasted.

Here is a poltician speaking pointless drivel, with absolutely no substance, platitudues and bullshit, and doing it very well indeed.

America went gagaover it.

People, this is a poltician's job - he or she is supposed to speak properly in his/her native country's language (in this case English, American version), to have charisma and to be able to move the masses.

That is the minimum a politician should be able to do.

Of course, after bush 'W', who could not even do that, and the senile McCain and the clearly out of her league Palin, it is refreshing to not have a complete idiot on the podium, broadcasting "this is the real America!" to the world.

But me, being a cynic, cannot buy this circus.

I have seen this over and over again.

The real tragedy of the 'W' presidency is that we have lowered our standards so low that a good speaker has been able to drive the country wild (chiefly because his last name is not bush).


All I can say is - show me the money, Obama!

Prove my cynicism wrong!

Actions speak louder than words - lets see you work.
