I SAW THIS AND I JUST HAD TO POST IT...


From http://blog.franchesca.net
(Thank you, Franchesca... I couldn't resist!)

It reads:
Rosa Parks sat,
so Martin Luther King Jr. could walk.
Martin Luther King Jr. walked,
so that Barack Obama could run.
Barack Obama ran,
so we could fly.

This is my beloved American social progress.

    And the next person flew, so blacks could teleport.

    Wow that's crazy...you know the summer that Obama was born, black students were being arrested for protesting for the rights to eat at restaurants and ride on buses. 47 years later, in the very same country, we have a black president. Not only that, he's been president for less than a week and he's already the most beloved prez since JFK. Now that's progress.
