So all of the votes have now been counted and we now have the first African-American president in the history of our country. While I’m proud of the fact that we’re not a bunch of racist haters like some would have us believe, I’m very concerned over having Barack Obama as Supreme Chancellor… I mean president.
As I was watching various news channels last night, and started coming to the realization that our country thinks that socialism is cool, I started trying to mentally prepare myself for the next four years. I keep trying to convince myself that the most liberal member of the U.S. Senate won’t be too liberal of a president. It’s not working. I know too much about history and I have too much knowledge of his policies.

I have to admit that I’m a huge Sarah Palin fan. Ever since I heard that she was going to sue over the decision to list the polar bear as endangered, I’ve been a fan.
When I heard that John McCain had decided to pick Governor Palin as his running mate, I was elated. Then I heard her acceptance speech. What’s more than elated? Whatever it is, that’s what I was. And then she spoke at the Republican National Convention last night.
I don’t know if it’s possible for me to be more impressed with this woman. She appears to be a true conservative that doesn’t like big government. She also says that we need to start domestic drilling which shows me that she has a grasp on the impending energy crisis that the country is facing. Add to all of that, she’s not from Washington. In fact, she’s about as far from outside of the beltway as I can imagine. I like that.
