Susan Sarandon: Egypt, Abu Dhabi and World 'So Happy' U.S. Turned to Obama
2009-01-24
Actress Susan Sarandon says that Egypt, Abu Dhabi and "the world" are impressed with the American people for selecting Barack Obama as their president.

"I know just coming back from Egypt and Abu Dhabi and other places in Europe that the world is so happy that we've changed direction. They're so hopeful," Sarandon told CNSNews.com at The Creative Coalition's post-inauguration dinner on Tuesday night. "They are as hopeful as we are, and they are really impressed with the American people that they have taken on this guy and that uh, he's going to be -- they hope, managing things in a different way."

#5  Now that the evil Bushitler is gone, I think the opportunities for these intellectual giants to step up and spout the spew will be fewer and far between, as their friends in the media won't really care to waste the time on quoting them on what a great job Barry's doing.
Dog bites man. Yawn....
