Will Republicans Have the Courage to Hit the Reset Button

So, the voters of the United States have spoken. They have chosen – or we have chosen because it is important to treat the presidency with respect, something the Progressive-Left wouldn’t have understood until now – a 47-year old multiracial man, who had a decidedly “Progressive” upbringing, who taught community activist organizations to pressure financial institutions into embracing bad business practices, whose records when in the Illinois Senate were destroyed and who started campaigning for the presidency almost from the beginning of his US Senate career. Congratulations, President-Elect Obama. You pulled it off.

We, as a people, chose Obama, questionable theology and all, to be president over an increasingly inclusive, reach-across-the-aisle, established war hero who proved his love of country through bone-breaking torture at the Hanoi Hilton. We chose Obama, questionable political ideological belief system and all, over a seasoned Senator with a proven track record of getting things done and a man the mainstream media used to adore before he dared to run against the “First Black President,” even though Obama really isn’t all that “Black” (a genealogical examination of Obama’s family line indicates he is 50% Caucasian, 43.75% Arab, and 6.25% African corresponding to the demographic of his Great-Great-Grandparents: 8 Caucasians, 7 Arabs and one African). I could go on and on and on about how unqualified President-Elect Obama is to take over the presidency but that would be to fall to the fate of being a defeatist. I am a realist and the reality is that the election happened, the votes were counted and John McCain and Sarah Palin lost. I could choose to say the election was stolen by illegal voter registrations submitted by ACORN or because ACORN was intimating to college students that they could vote twice, once on campus and then one where they were legitimately registered. I could refuse to acknowledge the Obama presidency because he still hasn’t satisfied Article II, Section 1 of the US Constitution requiring him to prove his citizenship. I could choose to do any number of things that would emulate what the rotten, narcissistic Progressive-Left did to President Bush for eight years but that would be to stink of their ideological filth and quite frankly, there isn’t enough soap in the world to wash that stench off.
