When This is Over...

When this election is over I am going to crack open my Bushmills Irish Whiskey "Black Bush" and have a celebratory drink. Then I am going to Disney World! I am tired of all the smears, the lies and the timid people who say, yeah they like Obama but cave in and vote for McCain because of family pressure or just a lack of guts to stand up for what is right. We have all heard every excuse in the book but at the bottom of it all is a sad cowardice that makes them hide their true feelings and couch them instead in trite cliches and Party slogans.

Once before I wrote about my Obama yard sign being flattened and then wrenched out of the lawn and thrown across the yard. I never wrote about when late last month someone tried to set it on fire with a cigarette but my daughter Sarah discovered it smoking in the yard. When I went out I found that only a small hole had been burnt in it before the fire went out. I tidied it up and left it there, proud and emblematic of all the freedom and constitutional rights we possess.

On Monday, October 13, 2008, "a day that will live in infamy", I went out and my Obama lawn sign was gone. Yes folks, it happened here in America, the land of the free and the home of the brave. Well I don't know about brave any more because it sure seems there are a lot of cowards out there. The person who bent my sign, the one who threw it across the yard, the one who tried to burn it and the one who stole it are not brave Americans! They are cowards. Cowards of the lowest and most despicable kind. They are such cowards that they are not brave enough to come to me in person and say they do not agree with my views. They can't stand up and say what they actually believe in. They can't verbalize for all to hear why they harbor such hate and hostility for Obama. They hide in the dark of night and damage, mutilate and steal another man's property to make the statement that they cannot bring themselves to say publicly. They are cowards and I ask that we all pray for them and pray for all the others here in America that harbor the same feelings of hate and hostility, that they may someday be relieved of this cancer of hate and be re-born in the light of freedom.

May God bless them and may God bless America!
