What a promising start for the new Liberian
administration! Before I heard and read it, I
wouldn't have guessed that Oprah Winfrey, Condaleeza
Rice, and Laura Bush would ever go to Liberia for a
presidential inauguration. But it's happening! I'm
almost giddy, considering the potential for a
turn-around in Liberia. May we not squander this
opportunity.
Hail to Liberia!! And best wishes to Mrs.
Johnson-Sirleaf and all Liberians.
Happy New Year also!
