That Thar Fat Lady Done Sung...

America has spoken.

We have said a simple "no more" to fear-mongering, hatred, racism, divisiveness, ignorance, world hatred and war. 

We are living in amazing times and I am proud that I have seen America come so far in my lifetime. It is time for America to come together. You may have not voted for President-Elect Obama, but now is the time for strength and unity. We truly are only as strong as our people and we are always stronger when we breathe and live as one nation.

Embrace the brave new world. Do not allow the last two years of sometimes awful campaigning taint your view of our new President-Elect. He is not a Muslim. He is not a communist, Marxist or socialist. He was born in the United States.  He was sworn into office with the Bible, not the Quran. He most definetely is not the Anti-Christ. He is a Christian (much more than myself). He is a supporter of Israel. He loves this remarkable, amazing, diverse country.

Let us truly stand united and face the entire world with our strength, our hope, and our convictions.

I hope that those who voted for Senator McCain will take a page from his book last night. He was classy and gracious. He vowed to work with the new President to help with America's many challenges. I am convinced that the "real" John McCain was on that stage last night. A man of honor and integrity who is not afraid to fight and stand strong for his beliefs. Hopefully, McCain's supporters will stand strong behind our new president and help heal the wounds this country has felt for so long.

Normally, I don't wax so poetic, but this historic election and the direction that I hope this country is going in has inspired me. I can only have faith and hope that a President Obama will stay true to the American people he led to make history. 

Now, on a lighter note...Strategery. I can't tell you how excited I am that this is in Wikipedia.

Love,
