We've had 8 long torturous (literally) years of craziness and the end is finally here. Today is the last Sunday Dubya will be my president and the celebration has begun. Even across the pond, here in London, there is excitement in the air. Obama is in the papers, in windows, television and in our minds.
At the West Ham match today was a scrolling announcement, "Kick racism out of football". I can't imagine the same advert at lets say a baseball game but I really appreciate the honesty. We may not be as forthcoming with our race issues but we did elect a black man as the leader of our country so movement has been made.
I lift a glass to George Bush, the nuttiest president to have won (allegedly) twice but time is up, time to move out and move on.
We are Oscar Mike!
