Hail to the Chief

Well it's official: America has its first halfrican american president. Pretty cool, eh? To get you, my faithful readers, prepared for the next 4+ years, here's the rundown of our soon-to-be 44th president.

Barack Hussein Obama

All in all, not a bad choice. He's a pretty formidable opponent, even for Cristina Elizabeth Fernández de Kirchner (5'1", 115lbs, power of pyrokinesis, diamond-strength skin). Although McCain wasn't half bad either. Check it out.

John Hussein McCain

Nickname(s): Jack, Lord Feltingsworth, "The Thunder from Down Under" (unknown origin)
Height: 5'3"

When you compare the two like that it kind of makes me wish things had been settled by steel cage death match. Like in 1852 when Franklin Pierce snapped the neck of Winfield Scott. Now that's democracy in action!
