Congratulation Obama!

You have won the "I WANT MY MOMMY" Election! This was not an election where the American voters were looking for someone to protect their freedoms. Instead, it was an election where people were looking for someone to take care of them. Self-sufficiency seems a bit old-fashioned right now. Why work so hard to be self-sufficient when candidates are falling all over themselves to provide the American people with womb-to-tomb or, if you will, cradle-to-grave paternalism.

This has been a "what's in it for me" vote. Are you going to give me health care? Are you going to make sure my job is guaranteed? Are you going to cover my child care costs? You aren't going to make me pay taxes, are you? How about all those evil rich people? Aren't you going to take some of their money away from them and give it to me? After all ... I work for my money, they cheated and stole for theirs. Make them pay their fair share of taxes. Me? I'm tired of paying any share.

WHAT WE HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO:

• The end of the secret ballot in union elections
• A return of the Fairness Doctrine
• A tax code punishing the wealthy, businesses, entrepreneurs, achievers
• More federal government in government schools
• Universal healthcare
• Cap-and-trade policies on coal (no nuclear power, no drilling)
• Supreme Court justices who favor a vaporous idea of "fairness" over the Constitution
• The security of our nation and our allies (particularly Israel)

I keep thinking about that foolish woman at the Obama rally who said that with a Barack Obama presidency she "wouldn't have to worry about putting gas in her car and wouldn't have to worry about paying her mortgage." There are so many like her – people who sincerely believe that an Obama presidency is going to be a substitute for work. Give these people about six months and they're going to be wondering what happened ... where their gravy train went ... why they're still having to work for a living.
