Chris Brown for President

Let me first say that while I don't normally talk politics on my blog as I don't want to alienate anyone who doesn't share my political views (unless your views are really f'd up...then I don't care. Ahem, I digress), I am today.

Just a bit anyway because I can hardly contain my excitement.

Yes, I am an Obama supporter. I truly believe he can heal our ailing country. In fact, I was a fan prior to him throwing his hat into the presidential race. I respect him as an individual for his honesty, the life he's led, the odds he's risen above , his family values. There are so many things I could go on and on but I won't. You get the point.

That said as we all waited in my living room anxiously , nervously listening for those all too important states that we desperately hoped would turn blue we asked the kids briefly "Who do you want to be president ?"

Of course we knew they really didn't have any earthly idea of who the candidates really were and what they stood for but we asked simply for our own amusement expecting them to parrot the decision they'd heard from us.

"Barack Obama" my daughter J says.


"You know who I want to win ?" my son B says wide-eyed and full of excitement

"Who's that ?" we all asked in unison

Expecting to once again hear Barack Obama you can imagine the laughter that errupted when he said Chris Brown

Out of the mouths of babes...

OOOH...I love me some Chris Brown! Maybe...Rihanna could be the first lady! I am liking this!


Though Obama was not my choice, I do have a great respect for the democratic process....and the people did speak last night!

I hope he CAN fix our ailing country!

Did I mention I love the boy?

*Going to listen to "Run It" now and practice my white (wo)man's overbite! Hee-hee! *

He would definitely be cutting it up at the Inaugural Ball.

I'd vote for an Obama/Brown ticket.

aaaaaaahahahahhaaaa! We coulda used your boy in our house while watching the election. Matt was treating his ulcer, I was jumping up and down with excitement and intermittently blubbering and we needed some comic relief in a BAD way!! HE's so cute!!

Even my 4 year old is excited about "Senner Brock Obama". He's been pointing out Obama signs for weeks, and he gets his underpants in a bunch when he sees a McCain sign.

And a lovely president he would be, too! :)

My 5 year old said he was going to vote for Jon Stewart. Hard to disagree with that.

That is awesome! How pathetic is it that I had to check who this Chris Brown is? I'm so out of the loop.

Could you imagine Rhianna as the first lady? Definitely smokey eye makeup would be THE fashion trend.
