Today was truly a day that will go down in history as the day the largest number of Americans assembled..... and smiled! As I watched from our sitting room, I found that I was smiling too; in a spirit of hope, ready for change, and in celebration of freedom. It didn't hurt that those little Obama daughters are cute as buttons! Or that Aretha belted out "Our Country Tis of Thee" like no other. Or that our new First Lady looked so classy and real. Or even that a supreme court justice could stumble over seemingly simple verbiage. Our nation's capital hosted the big event remarkably and looked better than ever. She "did us proud". It really was a tremendous day for the USA.

Well said! Last night, I watched CNN.com, which had a Facebook plugin for those who are registered, and it was quite something to see that magnificent parade go by, the First Family all smiles, and a gillion Americans and other global Facebookers commenting on the parade, the family, THOSE GIRLS(!), and the sheer anticipation and joy of it all.
While I am always "proud" to be an American, it will feel good to, once again feel truly proud of what the USA politic is all about. At least, that is my hope.
