So, I decided today ...

... to give my support 100% to our new president elect -- and judge him by his actions and words as his new presidency takes shape.

He has a clean slate right now as far as I am concerned -- so let's see what he does to maintain that 100% approval rating.

Some things of a little concern to me ... since he was elected -- the stock market has continued to plummet. So, I'll be looking at what he does to fix that soon.

Also, I know he wants to rule from a "centrist" position ... so, I'm not certain how his new Chief of Staff is the right choice for that position given he is pretty much a political thug.

And I've heard his choice for head of the EPA says that if you don't believe that greenhouse gas pollution is creating global warming -- that you are very misinformed. Again, not a very scientific approach to global warming -- but hey, I'm all for cutting out gas in greenhouses. LOL!


Now, I know Obama has only been at this leadership thing a few days. But I'm certain he'll get the hang of it.

Just my two cents worth -- invest it wisely.

Hooray. I'm ecstatic at the election. It's time for America to build unity in the world and open the world to the Gospel instead of bullying our way into oil rich territory.

Good decision. He has enough to deal with since his plate will be full and overflowing when he takes office. What a burden and someone has to do it. He is young and personable. I think he looks up for it. Popularity ratings being what they are, it looks like a losing battle to me. I feel sorry for Bush and wish he could leave office feeling good about what he did. Hey, maybe he does, but he has taken a beating. Whoever has that job takes a beating.

I for one am very excited about the future. At the surface he is very interesting to listen to. He actually has command of the English language! I do believe his heart is in the right place, he does want to improve America. It is probably a good idea that he chose who he did for his chief of staff. You know by experience that you always need a little yang with the yen. I'm praying for him every night that he will be blessed with the knowledge and cooperation to do the job he has so bravely taken on.

I heard he picked RE to keep the dems in line, so they wouldn't forget the "prime directive" and get lost building a bridge to nowhere or something like that.
