Work begins...

With the election of Obama, America has been given a 2nd chance....for everything. We last had this chance immediately after 9/11. Bush had the country (and the world) in his hands...hell, even Iran was holding candle light vigils for 9/11 victims.

And did he ask us to sacrifice? Did he ask us to do everything we could as a nation to reduce our dependence on foreign oil?

No.

He told us to go shopping. That's it. He then proceeded to pull us out of international treaties, invade 2 Muslim countries, and cause the loss of life on a HUGE scale.

We now have a chance to reverse this deadly course our country has taken. Obama, the democrats, and even moderate republicans have an opportunity to heal our nation, repair our international reputation, fix our economy, and give us hope for the future.

But, let's not forget...Obama is NOT "our leader". No American president is supposed to be a leader...our president must listen to the people and represent us accordingly...it is OUR responsibility to make it known to Obama and our government exactly what we want and need.

The work begins now.

Wake up, America!!
