> I pray that the liberal media will report the facts as they have with our current president.
I'm sure the liberal media (e.g. The Nation) will do a fine job of just that. It's the corporate media we need to worry about...
I'd prefer the corporate media go with the truth this time around, rather than, for instance, uncritically parroting scare stories to help stampede a nation to war. Of course, I think it will help that the president-elect is less likely to start a war.
> It amazes me how our country elected someone with Obama's history.
Me too! What a beautiful thing! I'm glad you too can appreciate this historic moment, when a minority raised by a single mom studied hard, earned a top position at Harvard law school, served his community and rose meteorically to the highest office in the land!
