I want to see Obama be a good president. There is no benefit to this country to see it collapse.

I do not wish him any success with expanding the roll of government, giving amnesty to illegal aliens, funding abortion, funding ACORN, investigating the political opposition in a partisan purge with show trials that waste public resources, limiting constitutional rights including the rights to free speech and bear arms, or any of the other left wing hot button issues you could think of.

And we would have been vigilant on speaking out against any of these issues that “President McCain” may have pushed as well (amnesty and fairness doctrine among them).

There is no “mandate” for Obama to socialize this nation. He even denied he was a socialist. As his ‘plans’ are articulated, they can be debated and exposed.

There is no patriotism in blind loyalty to the president's agenda, just because he was elected. But there are no sour grapes that he “stole” the office, illicit funds and all. Just a culture of corruption that permeated his campaign and will likely stain the office as others before him have stained it.

I’d rather see him fail and sulk back to Chitcago in humiliation and defeat. Country is bigger than one man. I’ll give him the same amount of respect that the DUmocrats gave Bush and Republicans for the last 10 years....NONE!

I agree with you. There was a mandate. The people have spoken.
It's going to be difficult to watch my values be tromped on though. I'm not sure I'll be able to handle the news, especially after eating.
Who knew change could make an old guy sick to his stomach.
