So, did everybody else cry at, "Congratulations, Mr. President"?

And "As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals."

It's still to bizarre to feel hopeful about politics. I keep expecting to wake up...

I cried through the whole thing. God. I can't quite believe it's actually happening.

I managed to hold off really crying until that line, but I'm randomly tearing up since I got this morning. It's so bizarre to be happy about anything in Washington.

FIRED UP, READY TO GO!

*tears up again* God, I am such a sap, and I don't CARE.

Did I start crying when he WALKED DOWN THE STEPS, you mean? Because YES. I have been crying FOREVER.

Oh man, that line. That line made me so happy and hopeful.

[esorlehcar]

So many of his lines! We have a president who isn't afraid of science!

[walkawayslowly]

Or admitting that a lot of Americans are not Christians!

Our long national nightmare being over, SO HAPPY

I cried and I breathed a sigh of relief. And I squealed like a teenager at a Duran Duran concert. :->
