With the election over, it’s time to begin putting civil things in perspective again. Obama won, and we will have to live with and work within that. As a Christian, I am instructed to work with the civil government. Only when it’s rules and regulations conflict with God’s word do I have clear choices to make.
I was both disappointed and proud of my country on Tuesday night. Disappointed that the Democrats were more in charge, and that the democrat had won the presidential race. I have my reasons for not liking them. My pride came in the way both the winners and losers handled themselves. True, there may be some kooks out there, but by and large everyone was civil.
Voting for Obama “just because he was an afro-american” did not make any sense. That was like hiring someone to run your business based not on his or her skills, but some other quality.
I’ll keep watching and reporting on what I see and how I feel. Just hope everyone keeps working to clean up the financial mess we are all in – as a country and as a world.
BTW, if all those foreign countries still need our help, why are their banks and other businesses able to come to the U.S. and buy our companies for cash. Maybe we ought to look at how much we send to other countries as “foreign aid”. It would be interesting to see the list.
