The dream?
Is it appropriate that the week of MLK day, the first black woman is sworn in as Secretary of State?
I think it is. Unfortunately, Condi strikes me as both insufferably corrupt and incompetent (you go, Barbara Boxer!), but still, it's good for society that we're at a point where a black woman can be as awful as any white guy and still get the job. I've always said the one good thing about Bush is that he does believe in diversity (not ideological diversity, mind you, though some of his followers certainly believe they have that market cornered).
Today's re-inauguration day. As a protest, we aren't supposed to spend money. Unfortunately, that won't really be possible for me. I'm going to a screening, and must either pay for parking or pay for public transportation. But I'll wear an anti-Bush shirt.
