The day after...

Well..I would be lying if I said I wasn't depressed. I think I put to much faith in the American people to see through the "slick used car sales" of Obama. This country could indeed be headed down the path of larger government and higher taxes. We are facing a President who wants to Ban our guns(bye bye CHL),shut down talk radio,bankrupt many of America's small businesses and coal mines, and nationalize health care.

I however, want to remind everyone these ideas of the President Elect are exactly that, still ideas. I believe we still have a voice(until that Domestic army comes to my door).Now is the time for us to step back, reorganize and regroup for the battles over the next four years. Let us not forget those people who WE(regardless of if u voted for them or not) elected still work for us. Come January the legislation will start to flow and we still have the right to send letters and let those who govern us know how we feel. We can give every horrible idea the "bail out" treatment. By that I mean, write your reps, tell them what you think. Flood their office with letters, calls and emails. Remember America went through a "socialistic" President named Carter, and we got Regan out of it.

Lastly, I want to say, President Elect Obama will be my President on Jan 20(or is it 21?). I may not agree with the man on anything, but I still respect that office and that man behind the desk. America has turned a leaf today, and for that I am proud. I want to encourage everyone, regardless of party, to come together and take pride in the fact that we can have a peaceful exchange of power and that America has officially shattered the glass ceiling for African Americans.
