It's a new day of a new year, the Bush tax cuts for the rich are dead and Obama is coming back [View all]

We've got the end of the Afghanistan war coming a bit closer, surely marriage equality will come to more states or even the entire country in one fell swoop and a national healthcare system is the law of the land which will be improved upon over the years if we can get the right people elected in future Congresses.

We have a man of color as the Chief Executive and his most likely successor will be a Democratic woman, if she wants the job.

Things are looking pretty good today, but it's not to say that it's all good. We still have a lot of work to do. We still have a lot of momentum to gain to do that good work. We still have a lot of wrongs to right and a lot of dragons to slay.

But you know, I think that we're up to the task.

It's a new day of a new year and the sun's about to shine on all of us.

Time to get to work and make it all happen.
