An Amazing Historic President

During the run up to the 2008 Presidential Election, my wife and I (Fiscal Conservative Libertarians) were having drinks with some very Liberal friends of ours, who happen to be art dealers. We are art collectors, so it's a mutually benificial relationship. We were discussing the upcoming vote and I expressed a desire to have a conservative in the White House. I was amazed at how emphatically our friends fought me on my positions and supported Obama.

One of our friends, who I will call Mr. Dem to help protect his identity, with great zeal, said, and I quote, "We have a chance to be part of something Historic in voting for Obama!"

Well, Mr. Dem, you were spot on with being Historic. Let's hope history will forgive the arogance and ignorance of the people that elected this "Historic" President.

Thanks to Doug Ross for collecting some of those "Historic" moments:

"Yes, he's historic, alright.

• First President to Require All Americans to Purchase a Product From a Third Party
