The Day After The Election

This is my first blog entry. I've been considering a blog site for some time. Why? Because I've got what I consider well thought out opinions and believe that I'm an objective thinker. I've called my blog Mirror on US...as in on us-you and I, and as in U.S. (United States).

Let me be up front. I'm a republican at heart. Ronald Reagan is one of my heros. I voted for George W. Bush both times (and his Dad), and would have voted for him a 3rd time if he was running for office. (I'll go into that more in depth in a future blog) However, I am sick to death of far right and far left political types. I am a conservative in the vast majority of political issues, but folks, I'm an American before I am a republican.

I voted for John McCain...proudly. He was not my first choice during the primary season, but when it became clear he would be the nominee, I did a lot of research on him. I believe that a President McCain would have be better for our country than a President Obama, but that's not how it turned out.

It is time to get behind our new president elect and support him in his future responsibilities. I am a praying person, and I believe it is my responsibility as a Christian to pray for the leader of my country. IT IS NOT TIME FOR THE RIGHT WING POLICOS TO BASH AND TRASH THE MAN WHO IS GOING TO BE THE NEW LEADER OF OUR NATION.

This blog is for the purpose of looking at our selves. Hence the name...Mirror on US!

If you want to respond, here are the rules.

1. Look at yourself, your own organization or party.
2. Write about what WE/US can do to make positive change in our communities.
3. Keep it clean.
4. Keep on non-threatening.
5. Perhaps your thoughts can impact positive change.
