I am beginning to wonder if I did a favor to the man
(President Elect Obama), by voting for him. I am so hopeful,
and yet he must be asking himself how much more can happen in
this world in the next 2 weeks and 2 days.

Well, I am comforted that he won't use that b%$#ism about
hitting the trifecta. I have really been trying to forgive
George, being the good little ACIM student I am trying to be,
but I couldn't resist that one.

On the Richardson thing, I'd like to thank the man for
realizing the whole line of economic cabinet picks need to hit
the ground running on Jan 20, not just Barrack Obama. It'd
good to see ethics coming back to Washington, DC., and the
people Obama chose realize we cannot afford scandals and hold
ups. Hopefully, Richardson will be able to serve at a later
date, once things are resolved.

I am proud to be a Democrat these days, except for Gov Potty
Mouth. And it feels good to start feeling hope and pride in
our country and government again. It has been a long, LONG 8
years!!! 

OK Dems, let's remind America what peace and prosperity look
like.

1. You did us all a favor, mandyky.
And time will prove how right you were and are.

2. Israel invading Gaza really hit me hard
this morning, is what got me thinking.

Yeah, a friend said just imagine this news if McCain had won - it would be Bomb Bomb Iran, in earnest.
Obama is the man for the job, I just pray for him, A LOT!

3. Let's hope that bomb, bomb, etc.
isn't the final slap in the face to all of us as the (fake) cowboy hits the trail out of Washington. The NY media isn't reporting the truth about what is happening in Gaza. I'm hoping with all my heart that this isn't some sort of (cooked up) provocation to TRY to get Iran to kick up their support of Hamas so we can, well, you know how the song goes....

Obama is the best person for the challenges we face right now and I have total confidence that he can handle it. He never said he was a miracle worker, but I know that most of us are hoping that he is.
