" I got to wake up this morning to the first, HALF black president. Which as we all know is history in the making. And yay for all those racist, idiots who voted for the man because he's black! It just goes to show that this ONCE Great Country is full of people who cannot think for them selves. Never in my 28 years have I EVER felt so ashamed and disgusted to be apart of this country. I get bashed because I'm a republican, and because I did vote for Bush. I agree that the war went on long enough, and we should have pulled our troops a long time ago, but that isn't what happened. McCain got slaughtered because of people hating Bush, and because people these days are so desperate for something different, they forgot their God, they forgot the mind, they played into ignorance and voted. And for me, its not that he is HALF black....that is a point that didn't bother me at all. What bothers me is he is for partial birth abortions, he wants to teach sex-ed to my kindergartener, he
wants tore-vamp the national anthem, and change the flag because it represents
the very things that people fought for 100's of years ago! To be free! That is
what the constitution was written for, and its a damn good constitution if you
ask me. Nothing needs to be changed, it all needs to be redirected to what
started it all! People are cheering, people are crying, black churchs across
America we jumping for joy when Obama was annouced to be the 44th president! Any REAL, God fearing, Bible believing Christian in his right mind should have seen
through his BS....but no! We voted for someone with little to no experience all
because he's black! Way to go America! You're a bunch of effin' fools! So, who
care if the babies be murdered, or the Bibles burn, or if people get paid to sit
on their already lazy asses, or the family units be changed to whatever we
think, and while the Ax of this liar falls, we'll forever rememeber that he was
voted in because he is HALF black. Spread the WEALTH! God help us
all!"
Here are some points:
1) I'm a strong believer in the Constitution of the United States, and the First Amendment right to free speech. I also believe that everyone has a right to express their views, no matter if I agree or not . That all said, this rant clearly come very close to hate speech, something that is morally wrong, and not cover by the first amendment. In, fact it can lead to criminal and civil penalties.
2) I'm not a Christian, nor claim to be one. I'm a Pagan Witch, and very happy in my faith and spiritual life. That said, my parents are an Episcopal Minster, and a Methodist Deacon. They and other true follower of Christ would be very embarrassed by your rant. This will not bring anyone to him, you fail to be a fisher of men (or women).
3) Jesus taught to that people that they should love one and another as he loved us. He also said, that when you do unto the lest of thee, you do unto me. Jesus hung with and around the most hated outcast of his time.
4) Jesus was a Community Organizer, and Pilate was a Governor
5) You are extremely Pro- life, although I strongly disagree, you have a right to hold whatever view you want to on the issues facing the nation.
6) It's clear you get your information from The Faux (fox) News Network, or Oxycontin Radio
7) You seem to have little or no knowledge of the issues or policies put forth by the Obama / Biden Ticket, and the Democratic party
8) John McCain, the candidate you did support, would disavow this rant and you. I would suggest you go back and watch or read a transcript of his concession speech.
9) This was a historic day for America, not just African - Americans. It was a fulfillment of Martin Luther King, Jr's , I Have a Dream Speech. There is clearly more work to be done, but this was an important step forward for us as a country.
10) Another important thing to take away from this election is that more people were involved in the process then ever before, and that can't be a bad thing. Having a bigger, more informed amount of people lead to better and higher quality representation. I hope that everyone will stay involved and help shape policy. After it less then 2 year to the 2010 mid- term elections, and in shorter time then we'll like Obama / Biden will be up for re- election. This is just the first steps of a long journey.
What do you think? let me know, I love to hear your comments on this and all my entries
May the Goddesses & Gods Bless you, America, and the World )O(

What astounds me here is that the words "loving" and "Fundamentalist" are bracketed so close together. This happens so often that the uneducated reader might be tempted top believe that if it comes out of the mouth of a Fundamentalist, it must be loving. Nothing could be further from the truth. The last election proved that, with the "Christian Right" pulling out every dirty trick in the book trying desperately to hang onto a country that (thank GOD) was finished with them.
I look forward to the next four years with great hope and promise. Thank God the people's voices were finally heard!
I completely agree with you honey, its her one sided opinion on this but in Georgia, thats pretty commen. Im one of the few people I know who voted for Obama.
And like you, hes not my first choice but felt like he was the better of the two evils. Hahaha.
