Congratulations, Mr. President.

We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do.


Mr. President, you have my axe!

And Congratulations, America. You elected an adult.

News flash: Plutonian scientists have downgraded Earth from "planet" to "annoying bunch of pricks who think they are so important." More on this story as it develops.
