History Has Been Made!!

On Tuesday evening our country elected a new President - Barak O' Bama. As we were watching the poll counts come in and becoming more and more discouraged as the outcome of the election slowly became a stark reality I was stunned by the newscasters reactions. They were commenting on the fact that America's younger generation (who voted in full force) are colorblind when it comes to a person's race. I would have to agree that my generation and younger don't seem to have an issue with anyone that is black, latino, asian, etc . . . They have always been an equal part of our lives growing up and now that we are older it doesn't seem to phase us. However, I was apalled by the newcasters comments that the fact that Barak O'Bama was black and democrat were the sole reasons for his becoming President. I believe as this election has played out that it is true - we are colorblind - but the same should be said that the majority of the public seem to be blind to reason, morals and a lack of duty to our country and what it stands for. Some of the things that Barak O'Bama wants to do as our President completely astonish me and cause me to wonder about the future of our country. His stand on abortion for example and that he could willingly support partial-birth abortion or ANY abortion for that matter makes my toes curl and makes my stomach churn. His statement that he would like to bankrupt every coal company in America so that we do not have to rely on that kind of energy anymore is a concern for those who work the coal companies. They would be out jobs as will thousands of Americans who fall prey to his golden tax plan. Didn't he say that he is going to create jobs? The list goes on including his health care plan and his plan for the war in Iraq. All of which I do not agree with.


All in all, the damage is done and we will be answering to his government for the next four years and possibly longer. I hope and pray that Mr.O'Bama leads this country in a positive direction and he will have my respect as I believe that his position demands and expects it of me. However, in this great country I do not have to agree with him on everything. I also will be glad to see America get away from the bashing of a President. Barak O'Bama will not get the kind of treatment that George Bush did simply because the liberal media will not allow it, no matter what he does. I have to admit it will be nice to see a President respected in the media and I wish him the best of luck.


Throughout this campaign I have been nervous and fearful with the prospect of O'Bama becoming our President. However, as the campaign entered it's final days a few months ago I realized that Barak O'Bama will not have complete control of America. It has always and will always be God's. Our founding forefather's prayed and poored God into every aspect of America's government and how it was to be run. I am so grateful for a higher power that is in Jesus. And it is HIM that I will be looking toward for answers, it is HIM that I will be bowing down to, it is HIM in who the fate of America lies, it is HIM that I will be singing songs of praise to and it is HIM who is in complete control and so I do not live in fear of the start of the O'Bama reign in the white house. May God Bless Barak O'Bama who will be my President and may God continue to bless America.


I also want to give a shout out to my current President for the last 8 years - George W. Bush. No other President in the history of our country has gone through what this man has and I say well done Mr. President. He went through the worse terrorist attack in the history of this country, 4 natural disasters, two wars, the capture of one of the worst dicators in the history of the world and a fallen economy. He stood his ground and did the best he could under the circumstances, and did it with America spitting in his face. I want to thank him for his service to our country and thank him that we are still safe, we have food, shelter, jobs and are still free. May God Bless him as he passes the baton and I hope and pray that his future is one of health and happiness. You've done a great job George Bush and I thank you.
