Obama in Prague


COOPERATION, DIALOGUE, PEACE and a William Butler Yeats quote....This is indeed a new administration and it makes me so giddy and happy I could scream. And in fact I did scream (and clap) repeatedly at Obama's speech in Prague this morning.

Everything was perfect. The crowd was wonderful (I think every American living in Prague was there along with Czechs and other nationalities) The setting was beautiful (an old square in front of the Prague Castle gates overlooking a view of the city), and of course Obama's speech was inspiring. He not only talked about the Czech Republic as if he had a degree in Czech history, but spoke about the importance of global cooperation towards Nuclear Arms reduction.

I truely feel proud to be an American
