bmags Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Yo Yo Ma is such a cool dude. His interview with colbert was one of the most natural i've ever seen. He was hitting him tit for tat. It was great. Phenomenal musician as well, I love his albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Great speech. Although I'm not sure that history is against the side of highly oppressive gov'ts. They've been around a lot longer than democracies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So right now Barack Obama is the president of the united states. The 20th amendment Section 1. The terms of the President and Vice President shall end at noon on the 20th day of January, and the terms of Senators and Representatives at noon on the 3d day of January, of the years in which such terms would have ended if this article had not been ratified; and the terms of their successors shall then begin.
