		<description>With Obummer, I mean Obama . . . get in line for the kool-aid all!

Look for Iranian retaliation--against American targets.  That goes doubly for other terrorist organizations.  We just elected a man with the full endorsement of every major terrorist group in the world as leader of the free world.  It&#039;s the political equivalent of hiring a child molester to babysit your kids while you leave for the weekend. Not only is HE going to have fun with your child, but he&#039;ll probably sit and watch while his friends come over and do it too.

- Look for far-left justices appointed to the Supreme Court, effectively tying up the entire government in a trifecta of liberal humanism, the buzzwords of which remain empty platitudes like &quot;hope and change,&quot; and the ultimate goal of which is socialism--and soon, sharia law.

- Military cases of troops being tried and convicted for killing the enemy in combat will continue to rise--and the conviction/plea-bargain rate will stay at nearly 100%, as the government seeks to use the best men and women this country has to offer as sacrificial lambs on the altar of global appeasement.  Those brave and honorable men who currently reside in prison cells across the country, stripped of their rank, their careers, families, and their good name, will not taste free air again for many years.  Their sacrifices and their stories will be forgotten by the general public, remembered only by those of us who continue to fight for them.

- Look for the slow but steady erosion of rights you have enjoyed for your entire lives--all the while being told it&#039;s &quot;for your own good.&quot; Restrictions on gun ownership, home schooling, encouraged dependen ce on the ever-growing federal government. More nanny-state provisions will be put into place to protect the &quot;disadvantaged&quot; and the &quot;poor,&quot; (read: lazy, uneducated, unwilling to better themselves) even while groups like the unborn, the mentally handicapped, elderly, and terminally ill are slowly pushed toward euthanasia.  Of course, this will be done with feel-good phrases like &quot;death with dignity,&quot; &quot;not wanting to be a burden,&quot; and &quot;merciful release from suffering,&quot; all of which ignore the basic fact that we are killing people without their consent for the &quot;good of the people.&quot; Before you tell me I&#039;m crazy, let&#039;s just remember that Barack Obama was the ONLY senator in the Illinois state senate to vote against providing medical care for babies who were inconsiderate enough to survive an abortion.  Also, look for taxes to go up.  Yes, they&#039;ll go up.

- You think the economy is bad now?  Just wait.  You&#039;ll have the most expensive &quot;free&quot; health care ever.  Bread lines aren&#039;t just for Russians anymore. We have traded experience for color, freedom for slavery--and the irony is that the average American sheeple thinks their vote somehow righted an ancient wrong, somehow ENDED the spectre of slavery and ushered in some beautiful era of liberty.  In reality, we are about to be less free than you ever thought possible.

I watched the faces of those crowded into the mob (excuse the pun) in Chicago.  They stared at Obama like he was a god, an idol, a panacea to their every want and need.  We have truly failed as a nation if we are at the point where we feel we must look to one man to take care of us all, to be our father figure and our sugar daddy.  We have lost not only the &quot;can-do&quot; attitude of past generations, but the &quot;MUST-do&quot; attitude of our forefathers.  We have allowed ourselves to become reduced from Patrick Henry&#039;s proud cry of &quot;liberty or death&quot; to the sniveling, whining idea that we are owed something.  We have gone from being the honorable defenders of freedom to being told we are the problem.

The eyes of Obama and McCain were also telling.  McCain acted with class and grace in his concession speech, offering the most honorable response I&#039;ve seen yet.  I don&#039;t agree with all of McCain&#039;s positions, but it cannot be denied that the man has served his nation--at permanent and severe detriment to himself--for half a century. His eyes were clear and sincere, honest.  His speech underlined the very reasons why, of the two men offered, he was hands down the better choice.

On the other hand, Obama&#039;s eyes were cold, calculating.  His manner was smug and still carried the arrogance he has always had.  His facial expression was one of barely disguised disdain for everything people like me believe in.  His body language was smooth, polished--too much so.  He talked of patriotism as though it is a value he is familiar with--and yet, his horrifying attitude toward the country he now leads is as well-documented as his friendships with those who seek its demise.  He is charismatic to those who don&#039;t know what to look for, and he is inspiring to those who cannot or will not think for themselves.  However, too many who voted for him are guilty of the most dangerous kind of hypocrisy.  You see, we are told daily that we must not see color, just mankind.  (We are all family, you know--or so we&#039;re told.) And yet Barack Obama was handed the White House on a silver platter by a fawning media, a bevy of foreign donors (who, to this day and in violation of U.S.  election laws, remain nameless and unaccounted for), and a populace who voted based on color instead of right and wrong--even in the face of the most damning evidence against a Presidential candidate in many years, perhaps ever.

It is said that the people receive the government they deserve.  Sadly, I fear that&#039;s correct.  We have become complacent, unwilling to see the writing on the wall, content to frolic in the warm water without bearing to notice that it&#039;s been getting hotter by the minute.  We are two seconds from a rolling boil--and perhaps it is already too late.

So, liberals, enjoy your victory.  Jump around.  Have a party, file for your free grants.  Scream &quot;Gimme my handout!&quot; and make fun of those of us who fought to make sure your &quot;messiah&quot; didn&#039;t get access to the most powerful position in the world.  Just remember when it all comes crashing down: You own the White House, the Congress, and soon the Supreme Court.  You have no one to blame but yourselves for the mess you just created.</description>

		<description>Relax everyone, take a nap and you&#039;ll wake up feeling better. You may be able to see more clearly where the power is that is guiding our nation. You will notice that the fertilizer that energizes miscreants in power is public apathy. Obama came along with all the right words that legions of ignoramuses accepted as gospel and begat a groundswell of support for his election. It amazes me how many people with a higher education found Obamas vision for governance a solution for Americas problems. The drama is beginning to unfold as our new president ascends to the seat of power. I am anxiously awaiting to see how many suckers will still be in denial one year from his inaugeration. In the meantime, we should commend him for what we believe he is doing correctly and knock him back into line when he wanders from that which he has sworn to uphold-our rights as freedoom loving Americans. Remember, we are stuck with this guy for at least four years so it behooves us to keep matters from getting worse.</description>

		<description>When are we going to wake up (if ever) and realize that our politicians are not representing us in Washington?  The only thing that will save us is a CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION! 

We need to rebuild our Constitution and make it work for us instead of the politicians---for example: I had to wait until age 65 to retire---not Congress they only have to leave and then immediately go on a COLA income for the rest of their life. I don&#039;t mind them retiring but they should have to wait until 65 like I had to do.

How about  our Income Tax laws?  Many smart Americans are advocating the Fair Tax---Congress doesn&#039;t want to consider it because that way the people win and the politicians lose.  It&#039;s called the &quot;pay as you go plan &quot;.

I had to laugh when I heard that Congress was going to require that The Auto Industry would have to live up to certain standards in order to qulify for a bailout(And well they should) Yet, Congress is not answerable to anyone but themselves.

Every week I have to balance my checkbook, and I think I have the right to require Congress to do the same.  There is a constant war between the Democrats &amp; Republicans and nothing gets done.  Between the two of them they&#039;ve spent us to over 9 Trillion Dollars into debt.
They have robbed our children and grandchildren of their future.

I don&#039;t know how to go about getting this kind of action going, but, maybe someone out there would know. But it&#039;s either the American Citizen or the Washington Lobbyists.</description>

		<description>Hope and change. We are going to be drinking that green bubble-up and eating that rainbow stew. Thanks for the uninformed that voted for a face and a name, and not looking into the man. Maby somehow we deserve this for being so ignorant. I&#039;ll be able to take care of my own.</description>
