This day In 2008, Barack Obama, a Democratic U.S. senator from Illinois, was elected president of the United States. With that said...This day In 1980, Republican Ronald Reagan was elected the 40th U.S. president in a landslide victory over incumbent Jimmy Carter.
If ever there was a reason to bitch about an "inherited" anything, try standing in Ronald Reagan's shoes on January 1st 1981. Jimmie Carter put the hurt on this country like no one had ever seen before. Granted Herbert Hoover made his mark, but we are still suffering from Carters run in the office. But, did Reagan bitch, whine and complain about how horrible things were and that "Carter left me with a big ole mess to clean up"? Hell No! He pulled up his boot straps and got to it...work that is. Not flying around the world whining to other countries that America has been bad and I am sorry you had to deal with that. Not acting like a child pitching hissy fits when he doesn't get his way. Not spending his entire first year creating new problems instead of going heads up what "he inherited". [interesting note; it took 200 years to get the National debt where it was when Obama "inherited" it. It took him five months to double it.]
They say everything comes around full circle. I truly hope that is the case. That being so, we are in store for a rough three more years of Barrack Obama and his horrible idea of what America should be and who it should be for. If today's elections around the country are any indication, we are at least on our way in the right direction. In the 2010 elections we will see a lot more conservatives filling the congressional seats that have, for too long, been occupied by greedy and corrupt ingrates, both democrat and Republican alike. And by 2012, the stage will be set to take our country back from the thugs that have stolen it from us. I say they stole it, but in actuality it is kind of like the pie cooling in the window. We took our fresh out of the oven liberty and sat it in the window to cool. And because we trusted our neighbors, (government) we took our eyes off of it to go about our daily chores and they took it from us.
I truly hope that 2012 brings us "A True Conservative" to take the Presidency back for the people. Be it Sara Palin, Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, or whoever steps up between now and then. We need someone with the same heart and soul that Ronald Reagan ran this country with...I want my pie back!
