"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
I'm happy that a Jakarta boy is the new US president! Don't think we're not claiming him
Don't know how he'll turn out but I loved seeing the reactions of the older black folks over in the US - I can only imagine how they must be feeling.
Somewhere 2pac's smiling... "It almost seems heaven-sent, we're not ready to see a black president."
They won't simply pack everyone up and leave on Jan. 22nd. You'll see the troops pulled from Iraq, but watch them move to Afghanistan. Obama has said we need more troops there, that the job isn't finished yet.
This is the funniest thing that I have ever read on this site. Thanks for the morning laugh WRF!
If Iraq an Afghanistan were all about democracy then why not China?
However it has been done now and the worst thing that could happen is to just cut and run and leave a mess behind, we've started something and it needs to be finished.
