Obama President-Elect, heck now what? Socialism?

Disappointment, grief, sorrow, disbelief, anger… sure, all of these words can describe my feelings right now. I, like a lot of Americans, held on to hope that our nation had not yet crossed the line of no return. It would seem that that hope was in vain, however, I now will hold my head up and begin to believe again for a future bright and positive, one worthy of my children. Why? How? Simply because I am a Conservative. I am a Republican. I still believe in the honor of being American and I know my faith is answered. I know my knowledge of Christ and the one true God is in tact. Life may get difficult. Okay, life will most likely get difficult, but it wasn’t a walk in the park up until now. I still live under blue skies, and I still walk on soil carved from freedom. This is just an opportunity to show my family, friends, country men, and indirectly the world, just what I am made of. It is a moment to try a little bit harder. Teach my children with a bit more strength. Walk the path of my life with a little more ferociousness. I will rise to the occasion. I know that my fellow Americans will too. We are, as I have said before, on the threshold of history. We are walking through the door. I am proud to be in this moment. There isn’t a reason to believe that our lives have to turn to socialism. I know that I will not be teaching it to my children. All that aside, as a Christian, I pray for the good will and wisdom that will be required for Obama to be a good President. We are still at this moment in time the greatest nation on earth. That doesn’t mean that we should or even have the right to, turn face and run. There is a lot to be done and our voice just needs to become louder. The doors are open. We will see attacks on every level from this decision. The main and probably most important thing for Republicans, Conservatives, to do or not do is bash. Don’t bash McCain for what he should have or shouldn’t have said. Don’t bash Palin for buying clothes, or speaking her peace about her religious beliefs. Certainly don’t bash Obama. Sure, be there for the mistakes, point out the mistakes, offer opinions about the mistakes, but do not lower your self to the level of the average Liberal/Democrat. President Bush has seen the very worst of the American soul. He has endured criticism at every turn. When things are good for us under him it is stated that he is riding the coat tails of Clinton, when things go wrong it is with out a doubt only President Bush’s fault. Like he is the man behind the curtain handing out miracles or in this case taking them away. We have to collectively be more than that. As tempting as it is and will be we have to rise above and be more than people like the MSM, Hilary, general Hollywood, and extreme leftist out there. We have to remember what it does mean to be a Conservative and put only the best forward. The world cheered when Obama became the President-elect, I cried. The world cheered when he became the President-elect! (just wanted to restate that because of the fear it should inspire in every American that values our freedom and our rights.) The fight is on. It will be won if our wits are about us and our tongues are only sharp when the issues are the subject. God help us, and God, please bless America.

IT'S TIME TO SIT DOWN, SOCIALIST OBAMA AND LIBERAL NUT JOB BIDEN!

Sitting in my car this morning, I began to realize just how important this election really is. So much of our lives are at stake and it would seem that intelligent beings are far becoming the minority. I try to reassure myself that we are not really voting for socialism, yet every where I turn I hear the ranting of a mad man, and the rants are believed. I try to reassure myself that the one and seemingly only way to hear conservative news is not going to be eliminated, yet the "fairness act" threatens in a very real way to do just that. When my children do not want me to know they ate more cookies than they should have before dinner, they come up with ways to shield it from my eyes. When I listen to the spew of the left wingers, I feel like I am standing in my kitchen with an empty cookie jar listening to the non-sense my children would have me believe. Well, I am sorry my friends, but I do not believe aliens have come to take my cookies to spread around the universe; much like I do not believe Obama should take my hard earned money and spread it around the country. I do my part, I give when and where I can. I live, like most folks, paycheck to paycheck. My husband would see his job in jeopardy if Obama's craziness is in fact implemented. What would we do then? Will Obama really be there with his wealth to share? Will I really be able to rely on his generosity to buy groceries, pay my bills, buy my gas? I think not. I don't want to sit in judgment of the herd calling them selves Americans but COME ON! Really? Moo is what you are going with? Perhaps Oprah has so much money that taking more than half of it will mean nothing to her, perhaps Madonna is such a saint that she will gladly give up her fortune. Praise them and their unselfish ways! I and my family however need what we make a month to live. Sorry. I know that that is rude. I know that that holds true to being uncompassionate, but I'm not talking about wealth to send my children to college, I'm talking about being able to pay my car payment. Beyond the queuing of the violins, I am not racist. I am not racist. I am not racist. I am going to vote for McCain. I am not racist. Why is it that the only people out there promoting racism are the ones that should be denying its importance? Obama said during a dinner speech (done in humor) That despite what every one has heard, he was not born in a manger. I laughed. Man did I laugh, because it was funny. Until the glass ball of that humor shattered around my feet, with the realization that most people voting for Obama view him as just such. A savior. Has any one besides me had the thought that African Americans hold them selves down? That being so full of hatred has blinded them to a life that could and should be wonderful? When the country and country men of your home become your worst enemy what do you do with that? Where do you go from there, how do you begin to heal? I often wonder what Martin Luther King Jr would in fact think of today had he not been killed. I don't think he would be emitting pride. I wonder if his fellow African Americans would be in the direction they are in had he been running for president today? I would be willing to bet he would be saddened by the direction our country is going. I firmly believe that we are becoming so deplorable as a nation that the extreme left wing is our only way to go because there is no accountability in that belief system. Every thing done is easily some one else's fault. Much like my child with chocolate on his face, he did not eat the cookies because HE did it by choice, he ate them because they made him by being so delicious. In his logic then, he should not be punished, the cookies should and what better way than to eat more? This is not logic beyond that of an eight year old, is it? Disappointingly, resoundingly, YES. The idea that we need to be told at every turn what to do, where to do it, when to do it infuriates me. I am not an eight year old and I am not stupid. Government has its place. Government has its importance. However, neither of those things are in the living room of my house, with my check book, with my children and certainly not with my marriage. Look Liberal America I am not sorry I am white. I am not sorry I can successfully think for myself. I am not sorry that I feel I have the right to say where and when my money goes. I am not sorry that the colors RED WHITE AND BLUE bring a lump in my throat when I see them flying. I am not sorry that seeing men and women in uniform protecting my country brings a level of pride in me so high I don’t need drugs. I am not sorry to be a free-thinking, “right” defending, moral toting, American so really, take a flying leap! Take your granola bars and your Birkenstocks and go hike yourself into oblivion. I am done with you. Take responsibility for once in your life for the things you think and do and make a real change for the better, become REPUBLICANS! I too have a dream, and its that America wakes up from its moral-less, guilt free, godless, disgusting stupor and remembers just what it means to be free and who gave that right to them.
That’s the way I see it!
