There will be no more opportunity for President elect BHO to vote present.  The eyes of the nation and the world are upon us.  Let's just see if the new pres can walk the walk.  We have heard all the soaring rhetoric now let's see how the new man does when faced with real challenges and real decisions.  Remember Obama has never produced any substantive body of work in his entire life.  For the life of me I cannot believe that America has just elected someone with the radical ideologies that this guy possesses.  On the other hand I can believe it.  Three decades of socialist indoctrination has paid off.  The majority of Americans have just sold out to their own government and have become slaves to the system. Let's just see how happy all of you are when Barack fails to deliver on all of his promises to the poor and downtrodden.  The government is supposed to serve the people.  Now we will all learn that the people now serve the government.  Barack is the master and we will become the slaves.  I for one am not going to sell myself down the river!  Remain independent and true to yourself and country.  We will live to fight another day.  If we can survive 4 years I sense another Reagan type revolution.  Barack and co. will run the country in to the ground and then people will once again be ready for "change".
