In a week, we can all do what we do every four to eight years and begin to forget the previous political administration. In a week, we can all begin "hoping" for a "change." In a week, we can, potentially, be proud again.
It will take more than a week to even start cleaning up the mess of the previous administration. It will take much longer to put the pieces of shattered lives back together again.
In a week, some of us will put recrimination behind us and move on as we can.
But for a week, let's reflect. If you voted for President Bush, if you know someone who did, or even if you just happened to have been affected by his presidency: take a week. Learn, relearn, or at least consider the cost of his tenure.
Keith Olbermann has a little something to remind you.
