Barack Obama

what they do best.. helping others.

I know what you mean about making it to 2009.. 8 years after 9/11 when the unthinkable happened.. it's still hard to wrap my head around it. I was living upstate in New York at the time.. it was too unbearably sad.. and then the aftermath of the bush-cheney misbegotten war on Iraq.

I remember seeing what happened live as I still watched the today show back then.. and my head was swirling in unbelievable chaos.. I went out for a run and past houses where no one was home.. thinking they don't know yet how much the world is changed.

I was a political neophyte but, I was still thinking that bush would use this to his advantage.. little did we know what evil they had in store.
