Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
Don't think you can follow Jon Stewart's suggestion and ship your old leaders over to us once you don't need them anymore
But you're where the World Court is.

For one day, for one hour, let us take a bow as a country. Nearly 233 years after our founding, 144 years after the close of our Civil War and 46 years after Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech, this crazy quilt of immigrants called Americans finally elected a black man, Barack Hussein Obama, as president.
I find it extremely annoying that white people think they did something noble and heroic by electing a bi-racial President. It's like they actually think race relations are any different now than they were two days ago...
As of noon yesterday, the US entered a rare period in its recent history when none of its six top elected leaders (President and Veep; Speaker and House Majority Leader; Senate Majority Leader and Senate Majority Whip) hailed from Dixie. How long it's been depends on whether you count Papa Bush as a Texan and whether you count Missouri (home of Dick Gephardt) as Dixie. If so, it's been since the Ford years; if not, then it's been since Papa Bush, and the Ford years before that. I don't know what it means, exactly, but I thought I'd point it out.

I'm more sympathetic to the sense of euphoria coming from black people (especially older ones). They suffered real racial injustice in their lives and seeing a black man elected must set off emotions that I can't claim to understand. Obama really isn't one of them, but I can understand why they wouldn't care and would just want to revel in the moment.
