Had Barack Obama been judged by his character, he wouldn’t have made it out of Chicago. Well, the cult of personality, propped up by the house organ media, actually got this fella elected. Now we’re all going to have to deal with the result. This isn’t sour grapes, folks: this guy’s policies, and the agendas of the people who have surrounded him his entire life, spell the end of the United States of America if allowed to come to fruition.

Here’s your “change” by the way: an administration full of recycled Clinton administration hacks, many of whom are already caught up in scandal; avowed socialists, communists, terrorists, and other anti-American associates; and a President who has done nothing but run for office for the past few years. Well, he’s won it. Now what? Gun control, abortion, and the term “hate speech” to label anyone audacious enough to point out that homosexuality is wrong. That’s without even getting to the fiscal part of things!

Well, here comes all that Hope™ and Change™ that the vacuous masses of Obama voters wanted, despite the fact that few of them could summon a tangible idea of the policies embodied by those two buzz words. Who knows, maybe they’ll be too enthralled by American Idol to even notice the path down which an Obama presidency takes us.

My hope and prayer for President Obama is that he never gets anywhere near his socialist goals. I pray that once the real world sets in on Wednesday, and he actually has to commit to a policy decision, that he finds himself unable to go down the path he’s espoused throughout his short political career. I pray he’s able to keep our nation safe, and I certainly wish him no ill will, but I hope his policies die on the drawing board. With the help he’ll receive from the Legislative branch and the bedazzled mainstream media, however, I am have my doubts.

Do you like being able to select a doctor from among the finest in the nation, and not wait for months to see them? Well, here comes the change. Do you believe in the sanctity of life, even in the womb? Well, here comes the change. Do you believe in the right to own a gun to protect yourself and your family? Well, here comes the change. Do you strive to better yourself without having a union telling you what to do? Well, here comes the change. Do you believe in the right to speak freely about what the Bible says? Well, here comes the change. And do you enjoy the right to be able to cry out with the voice of political dissent? Well, here comes the change.

The Bible says we’re to abide by the government under which we live, and I certainly plan to do that. I also plan to continue to be involved in political matters, and implore everyone else to do so as well. As far as the Bible verse I would best love to apply (albeit out of context) to an Obama presidency, I suppose it would be Psalms 109, verse 8:

Of course it’s only the days of his Presidency that I would like to be few, not “his days” of course. Be that as it may, we’ve got at least four years of trying to hang onto the freedoms we have left. Let’s stand up for what we believe in. In the mean time, have a sip of that crazy Kool-Aid and hang on. Hopey Changemas, everybody!

UPDATE: I’m fully prepared to be called a “racist” for disagreeing with President Obama, as they started that little game during the campaign. They sure set the tone early, however, as evidenced by the benediction “prayer” by Rev. Joseph Lowery: “Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around… when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen…”

In other words, if you’re white, you’re a bigot. Hope! Change!
