The Awakening

by Greg Miller

     It looks like it's going to be a busy summer as the political machines gear up for a showdown in the fall. There's much on the line this November when people take to the polls to elect, or re elect new Congressional Representatives. There are quite a few Senate seats up for grabs as well.

  This time last year it looked as though a Democratic majority would govern for quite some time. We had elected a new President and his party, the Democratic Party, had gained huge majorities in both houses of Congress. It was a new day for America and it wouldn't be long before "fundamental transformation" would occur.

  A funny thing happened on the way to November's mid term elections; America woke up. It turns out that the American people understand that, just because you win an election, you can't govern against the will of the electorate.

  Barrack Hussein Obama ran a masterful campaign. He benefited from a sympathetic American media that was unwilling to vet him, a general anger at George Bush, a bad economy and people who just wanted Hope and Change. It didn't matter that he was vague about what that Hope and Change meant, people were tired of the status quo and they looked at Barry's opponent as more of the same. Obama won big.

  The day after the election I posted this on my facebook profile; "Elections are easy, governing is hard." The reason for making that statement is simple. The American people are a stubborn lot. We enjoy our freedoms and cherish Liberty. You see, if the media was unwilling to vet Barry, there was nothing stopping others like me from doing it. We have this wonderful thing called the internet and it has been an incredible educational resource for me. It didn't take long to find out quite a bit about Mr. Obama; his beliefs and his activities. I found out who his friends were and what he wrote as well as his voting record. I knew that once the American people began to see who and what he was, they would realize that a mistake had been made.

I believe that I was correct in that belief. From all the data I can gather it appears that the Democratic Party is going to suffer a political bloodbath this November. The reasons are many, but it all boils down to this; You cannot govern against the will of the American People. This doesn't mean that the Democratic defeat will happen, but if the trend continues there will be far fewer Democrats in Congress this time next year and that is very important in order to stop this administration's agenda.

Barry's agenda is not America's agenda. We've always been a center right society. The belief that you can force a leftist ideology upon a country with firm roots in freedom is a stupid one. Socialism is nothing more than a form of slavery and the average American understands this and does not want it. Could be that Barry may be responsible for a new American awakening. Let's Hope for that Change!
