An old (and I do mean old) friend of mine wrote this and sent it to me. I'm sure he voices the goodwill towards our new president that many who did not vote for him nonetheless feel. Will Obama anger us conservatives? You can bet on it! Guns, abortion, size of government... There will be plenty of opportunities to clash with President Obama and his minions, but today let's start with goodwill in our hearts for the 44th President of the United States.
In honor of the inauguration of our first president of color, I present you the thoughts of a self-avowed redneck:
I was watching a talk show and black democratic female commentator referred to Obama as a Son Africa. She tapped danced a little bit but I think it does reflect the black community mentality. Is this wrong? No!! It wasn’t exclusively the black community vote that got Mr. Obama elected, but the voting did reflect rural and urban differences.
Mr. Obama does reflect the American can do culture!! Black father, white mother and was raised by his white mother and Kansas grandparents. He took those rural values with some bumps along the way, educated himself and rose. That is what America is about.
Jan 20 will be an historical moment as the First Black President gets sworn in and will have a Catholic Vice-President. Then the politics will begin. I hope my New President does succeed because I'm one of those guys that needs him to succeed. I would be saying the same thing if McCain had been elected president. I will support my president on the issues I agree with and won't on the ones I don’t. Go get them Mr. Obama.
Redneck Ron
