I truly look forward to seeing this in person on my next visit!

    Want to borrow one of mine?

    I am going to go out on a limb here and say I'd rather see Sarah in the t-shirt --- not in the oval office however

    did he say " maybe we will tax those benefits after all " ?

    okay - I'll stop before this turns ugly --

    I'm just a little tax punchy - as my state, Obama's former state, getting ready for a 67% increase in the state sales tax today.....

    I'm a CP (College Program) and a few of my friends and I went to the Magic Kingdom today to see the show, and we were allowed in!

    It is incredible from the old variation. The screen is HD and the sound is incredible. The rollcall and the upgrade to the animatronics is beautiful. I really enjoyed watching how lose and limber Lincoln was!

    Obama seemed to need some tweaking; his face was a little off, like his cheeks didn't animate too perfectly, but I liked it none the less. I wanted to see it again, but alas my friends said no. =( <<

    Welcome aboard Digital Effect. I certainly hope you enjoy your time here at LP

    Thanks for the report, and opinion on HOP.

    Make sure, and keep us informed of the day to day life you experience as a CP.

Regardless, it's great to see that they kept him! To me, his 'folksy' delivery was so perfect for the role.
