Obama to use executive orders for immediate impact

Monday, November 10th, 2008

I know we are in dire times but I also hope this isn’t a sign of things to come. It’s never a good sign when a president uses executive orders to avoid congress. I hope that Barack is very careful with his use of these powers over his term. I am understanding of the need to get things moving. I don’t fault him for it at all. But at the same time I think it’s something that we all have to keep an eye on.

Grant Park Acceptance speech

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

Here is the video from Barack Obamas Acceptance speech last night at Grant Park. I thought it was a moving and honest. It’s going to take a lot of work to get things going in the right direction. A lot of his supporters have been chanting his Change mantra like it was going to be an easy thing. It was nice for Barack to be honest last night and let them know that it is probably going to take a full term to really start making things change. I hope he keeps up with the honesty and works as hard as he possibly can to get things turned around even faster.

Congrats Barack Obama 44th President of the USA

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

Tonight we have seen History made. Barack Obama has become 44th president elect. He’s the first Biracial president and it’s a good feeling to see this country finally look past race. Of course there were many people that voted based on race but the right man one the race. There was not the widespread bullshit from the last few elections. I’m very happy about that and hope that this country can be turned around.

It’s not an enviable position to be in but with the house and Senate on his side in the majority things could be turned around faster. I’m still not sure about some of Baracks policies but it’s going to be an interesting time and i’ll be here to report my opinion on the issues as they come up.

Now it’s time for the wounds of this election to start to heal. We are Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and all sort of various parties. But we are above all Americans and it’s time to unite and get this country back to the level we should be at. Does this mean that I will be a yes man for this upcoming administration? Of course not. I love this country and if there are things this administration does wrong i’ll let my voice be heard. Lets keep an open mind and see where this takes us.
