Here is the real song I was thinking of

South Carolinians got to see

South Carolinians got to see how there black Christian brothers and sister view the Confederate flag. Many South Carolinians had convinced themselves that the compromise that white South Carolinians worked out was OK with the flag remains on state grounds. The South Carolinians thought that they knew what black South Carolinians wanted because there were no riots. Without these deaths, South Carolinians would have gone on thinking everything was OK. The volume of the applause Obama got when he said the flag had to come down was deafening. Hopefully, there can be meaningful dialog on the serious issues, but the flag coming down is a necessary step.

This has been a great week with a sad but hopeful end that can lead us to a better future.

Thanks, Arthur. I love you,

Thanks, Arthur. I love you, too.

I think we're going to enjoy his last year and a half of housekeeping. I'm so glad he's going out with a bang.

I've smiled more in the last 2 days watching the news than I have in a very long time.

And then today. Wow. The eulogy was amazing. I was on the verge of tears, then when the Prez started singing, I lost it.

This country has lost a huge opportunity by not following his lead for the last 6 years. Now that he has no fucks left to give, and he is able to go his own way, we're seeing the man I wish we could have seen all along.

I've never been as proud of him as I am today. And I've been pretty proud.

This is a big deal and this

In reply to It was a very moving speech.

This is a big deal and this is a WEEK to remember.

This is a big week.

And I shall remember this week.

Most surprises seem to get me down.

Not this week.

And our President's speech just caps it off.

REMEMBER THIS DAY

I saw him singing the song.

Son of a gun.

It was a very moving speech.

And his comments on the Scotus decision were very thoughtful.

A day to remember.

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't see yet. It was food day and I still have lots to do. I will look for a video tonight or at least some clips.
