“Change has come..”

After the election.. the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 5.2%, California joined Florida and Arizona in constitutionally banning same-sex marriages – Obama in 2004, “my religious beliefs say that marriage is something sanctified between a man and a woman” while vice-president-elect Joe Biden agreed with Sarah Palin. And in Iraq..

[Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshiyar] Zebari said he believed Obama would take conditions on the ground into account before any withdrawal. “When there is a reality check, I think any U.S. president has to look very hard at the facts on the ground,” he told Al-Jazeera television. “The gains that we have attained and won with hard struggle and a great deal of sacrifice need to be sustained.”

Just saying.. Adds More on the “change” theme..
