On this inauguration day, I just received a Twitter tweet from a breaking news service that I follow with the following text:
Israeli President says Obama was "chosen by the whole of humankind," says it is the correction of "one of the greatest mistakes in history."
My immediate thought was, "Boy, that’s ballsy to call Bush one of the greatest mistakes in history, especially coming from the president of another country." Then I read the rest of the released statement, and the sentence following the above quote starts:
What made history ugly, unmistakably, was basically slavery…
Oh well. I still like my original thought.
