Ah, good old Rick

So here it is, inauguration day in America. And like everyone else I can't help but get caught up in the moment because honestly, as a Canadian, I did not believe in my lifetime I would see a man like Barack Obama become President of the United States. And not because he's black. No, no, no, no. Because he ran a positive campaign and he actually got elected.

I saw it on Tuesday and thought that as usual, Rick hit the nail directly on the head. I only wish that all Canadian politicians would take heed.

I do like Rick Mercer.

James, you might want to start tagging links that it's cognitively safe to click on. I mean, after all the extracts of purest Orson Scott Card, and then Daffyd Ab Hugh, I tend to think just as hard about following anything you link to as I would in following a link that Warren Ellis captions with DON'T CLICK THIS.

With any luck, it'll start a trend. I am SO FUCKING SICK of attack politics and mudslinging.
