On this, my new president’s inauguration day, I give thanks that the forces of reason, intellect, integrity and competence have prevailed over the past eight years of small-minded, ignorant, mendacious and self-serving pseudo-patriots who have plunged my country down a reckless path of economic uncertainty, disrespect for the rule of law and our constitutional heritage, abrogation of human rights, and downright corruption of the political process in an effort to pursue their nefarious ends. With a long-forgotten sense of pride I will reach my new posting in Honduras motivated to promote those ideals for which our country has served as the vanguard of liberty and democracy and as a multi-racial beacon to the law-abiding world. Let freedom ring!
President Obama
