All right, I'm a little depressed that it appears our country will now be run by a thief (socialist) and a moron. This is how liberty dies...we trade our freedoms for "economic security" and remain foolish enough to believe that those to whom we have given our freedoms will give them back when we want them. This is against the nature of government. To believe otherwise in the face of all the historical evidence is beyond foolish.
Economic freedom and property rights are the soil from which true liberty springs. When we vote for politicians that promise to take money from those who have earned it and give it to those who have done nothing to earn it, we invite those same politicians to take greater control over our own lives. Those who steal the property of others with no remorse have shown their tendancy towards tyranny. Once a politician starts down that road, history shows us that they do not stray from it.
So, congratulations to all my friends and family that voted for the socialist. You will get the government that you deserve. Unfortunately, you have also given me the government that you deserve.

I think I just got hit by a sheep on fb! :) I have you on my blog feed so I saw this the other day and I had very similar pains. I'm not military so obviously you have a much stronger reaction to our nations choice but I am TOTALLY disillusioned by our people just as I'm sure you are. ARRRGH!
I really hope he surprises us and realizes he needs to join us somewhere in the middle. I also hope he learns how to choose his friends more wisely. It's not looking good by his first cabinet picks though? Hang in there Dave!
