Taking the plunge...


Day one and Mr. Obama took the Presidential plunge. Okay, first he enjoyed 10 minutes in silence in the Oval Office and a few prayers at the National Cathedral, but after that he dove right in.

He froze some executive White House salaries. Okay, that one was easy. It was only 28 degrees.

He called for greater transparency. Well, it's clear we deserve it.

He telephoned Arab and Israeli leaders. Hellooo!?!

He met with his top military advisers. High time we get outta there, boys.

He limited the influence of lobbyists. Ethically speaking, a nice move.

He's suspended Gitmo hearings. Hear ye, hear ye.

He greeted formal White House visitors. You break it, you bought it?

He retook his oath of office since Chief Justice John Roberts flubbed it the first time. It's always better the second time 'round.

He met with his economic team and Pentagon top brass. Takes money to run a war.

He spoke with the Ambassador to Iraq. Enough said.

He congratulated Hillary. After nearly two years it's about time, no?

I can't wait to hear about Day Two.
