KUM-BY-YA YA'LL

You know I love to wander through the blog-o-sphere checking up on my favorite bungalow rehabbers and all things Chicago. It makes me crazy though because those people are thouroghly and utterly dyed in the wool democrats at the least and rabid liberals at the worst. I try to overlook all of that but it is getting harder and harder since I am finding it almost intolerable to stomach their enlightened view of the world in this post-Obama election universe. All of a sudden they are all enlightened about being bi-partisan and optomistic, and oh so generous about working together to CHANGE the world into a better place. OK, where has their generosity of spirit been for the last 8 years? Now they are willing to be cooperative and bipartisan since THEIR guy is in the White House. It is no great effort to be so when your side holds the keys.
I am happy to live in a town that has yard signs reading "Welcome Home Mr. President". I hope George and Laura will be comfortable here and able to live with peace and dignity after 8 years of constant criticism and hate. I don't care what you think about his policies. He governed according to his conscience just as Obama will. Just because his ideals and policies differ from your own is no cause for hate. Obama does not represent my ideals but he is my president. I will work and pray for the causes I believe in and I will not resort to hate. I think Obama is wrong wrong wrong on just about every issue. This is America, I am entitled to my position and so are you. Don't take away my right to express my views (Un-Fairness Doctrine) because you now have the power to do so. I don't ask for ABC, NBC, CBS, CNBC, Air America, countless big city newspapers, Time, Newsweek etc, to be silenced so don't you ask for FOX or talk radio to be silenced.
I am proud to live in this country, always have been but I worry for her soul. I see a constant battle between the darkness and the light with the darkness getting stronger every day. Government is not the answer to all of our ills, the people are the answer. Obama cannot save us from ourselves but he can facilitate our demise. The people's hearts united with the will of God is the answer.
