Surely we'll never turn back

Ah, the fresh air that has blessed our land!We have turned a corner as a nation, thanks to the enlightened leadership in Washington, D.C. today, and it is a corner we must never, never allow our nation to turn back around on, and go back behind and hide around and slink beneath, just because we might change administrations again someday in the future.Wanna bet?Two incidents in recent memory as reported this month by the Associated Press:Number one — Karen Lewis, who is the president of the Chicago Teachers Union — a major public position in that huge community — apologized this week “for making a joke about Secretary of Education Arne Duncan’s lisp.Lewis said at a union event in Seattle last month that she could tell Duncan ‘went to a private school, because if he had gone to a public school, he would have had that lisp fixed.’ Her comments were caught on video.”As if that is the only reason Karen said she was sorry. Heck no. She really IS sorry, doggoneit.
