About a new American President. These people over here are going wild. You sould hear our air waves and see the coverage on TV - Amazing. Even Madame Tussaud's is allowing American Citizens in for free so they can take pics standing next to Obama's wax. Me, I'm considering an informal invite to a little Soirée in Finchley......Have food and wine and I'll travel.

Frankly the "entire world" should mind their own business and stop sticking their noses in American politics. I'm not and never will be interested in the opinions and convictions of foreigners about this country or any president we will ever have.

Big news in Canada. CBC and Global National broadcast the inauguration and parade w/c passed in front of the Canadian embassy on Pennsylvania Avenue. (FYI - Canada is the only country allowed an embassy on Penn Ave thanks in part to Canada providing shelter to US diplomats during the Iran hostage incident). Democrats Abroad Canada - Toronto co-sponsored a cinema which broadcast the inauguration and has a ball tonight. They also hired 2 buses to take people down to DC.

The "Entire World" will mind it's own business when the United States quits poking it's nose into the business of the "Entire World".
If you want to be the leader of the world, you have to expect those being "led" to take an interest in what you are doing and who is President.

Gee, those being "led" taking an interest in who is leader.
Imagine that.
