Election 2008

So Obama is now president...I am not pleased.  FYI, I didn't vote for him.  I am hoping that he will be like most politicians and won't live up to his campaign promises, b/c I DO NOT want my federal taxes to pay for women's abortions and I DO NOT want sub-standard universal health care and I DO NOT want there to be a universal preschool...kids are in school long enough in this life...we don't believe in preschool and think it is the parents' job to teach their kids (clearly we think this, as we are homeschooling :)).  And how does he think he is going to pay for all these enormously expensive programs with the gov't in such debt?  He'll have to raise taxes, which he has said he won't do.  And don't get me started on his "share the wealth" plan.  

Well, after all this ranting, I can know that God is in control and knows what He is doing and take comfort in that.  Remember the Israelites?  Time and time again He caused their enemies to defeat them b/c they were disobedient...maybe it's our time, until we wise up....
