Nah nah nah nah... hey hey hey... goodbye...

Well here's the post I'm writing to make myself feel better, because you need to get things out.

I'm disappointed in America. Chiefly because enough people fell for glitz and glamor instead of substance. But also because of how people at large are acting.

I'll just say that I am worried about this country being forced into socialized health-care, the government controlling the banks, and the slow erosion of our constitution by radical liberal politicians. But am I going to say that this is the end of the world?

No. Do I think we're in for at least two and possibly more years of really crappy times in America? Yes. Do I think we're in for more terrorist attacks on US soil? Probably.

I have to say I'm a bit ashamed of how ignorant the majority of people are in this country about issues that affect them. I mean, it's one thing to not be able to pick out North America on a map, or answer simple questions on the Jay Leno 'man on the street' quiz, or even to come in dead last in math scores among developed countries. But to actually put someone so under-qualified as Obama into office because the media makes him out to be some kind of anti-Bush messiah? Really? Did Democrats need revenge that bad that they put their OWN stooge in the white house?

Ho hum. It's not going to get better folks, and it wouldn't have even if McCain had won. It's just a matter of how fast we go down the toilet.

But I'll end on a hopeful note, because without hope and faith, we have nothing. I think that some good will come from this election and presidency, and I think a lot of that will be people understanding just how bad big government really is. And further that it doesn't matter which party is in the White house, government will only grow and take more from you unless we all stand up and do something.

So put on the gloves people, things are about to get ugly...
