Hypocrisy from the Left?

We're hearing a lot of "insulting the new President-elect is counter-productive," "you guys make me sick," and similar remarks regarding our "spreading of lies" (what lies?) about Barack Obama.

So should we just ignore the past 8 years of Liberal smear-jobs on President Bush?  Or is that territory off-limits as well?

Do they know something we don't?  Well, at least something that 52% of America doesn't.

Don't Go Away

We're in the middle of deciding what to do with this site, so if you're a fan, don't go away, because there's much more to come.

P.S., all you morons who are posting comments along the lines of "ha ha, you loose (sp)," you don't seem to be grasping Obama's promise of unity and non-partisanship.

The Aftermath

by JASON RAEDE

I watched the election unfold at my buddy's apartment in downtown Jerusalem.  After giving up hope at 4:30 AM, I woke up at 7 to catch Obama's speech.

I was captivated. Maybe not so much as the black ladies on the verge of tears, or the jubilant GWU students dancing in front of the White House, but I felt the emotion.  Regardless of my feelings for the man, he is going to be the next President of the United States, and for that much, I'm happy for him.  And I respect him.

I'd like to be excited for the change to come. I'd like to be excited for "better opportunities."  The problem is, I know too much about him.  I arguably know more about him than 99% of the people in the world, because my job for the past four months has been essentially to dig up dirt.

My conclusion is this: His past contains everything bad he has to offer.  His speeches contain everything good.  He's mesmerizing. Even I felt drawn to him.  But again, I know too much about him to be excited. I know what he has stood for in the past; I know who his friends are; I know what he voted for.  And knowing all that, I can honestly say I'm scared of what's to come.

I'm a rational person.  I'm not going to sit around clamoring for a recount, threatening to move to Canada, or react in any other foolish manner reminiscent of 2000 and 2004.  I'm going to put behind Barack Obama what little faith I have in his ability to successfully lead this country.  I can only hope that I'm wrong about him - and if I'm not, well, we'll have four years of hell, and hopefully Israel and American capitalism will still exist at the end of it all.  And with that hell will come more policies to criticize, more speeches to analyze, and much, much more dirt to dig up.
