Some Positive Reactions from the Right

by Dennis Prager

I spent a good part of the past year speaking and writing against the election of Barack Obama. During the last week of the campaign, my Salem Radio Network colleagues, Hugh Hewitt and Michael Medved, and I spoke on behalf of the McCain-Palin ticket in the “Battleground states” of Colorado, Minnesota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Florida.

One would expect that I would be devastated at Barack Obama's election — as devastated as liberals were at the reelection of George W. Bush in 2004. ...

Re: Masako. Wow. Prager was eloquent, graceful, and pointed out some important truths. It's been hard to find much positive about the election of Obama, but he manged to find a few good points. Personally, I think the nation is in for some rough times - the bankrupting of our economy with the tax increases that are coming, the trashing of our healthcare system with the coming socialization, and the emboldening of our enemies with the coming withdrawals from Iraq and all the promises of "sitting down" with people that want to kill us. And as for the race business, I would have summed it up more simply, "Now that Obama has been elected, I don't want to ever hear again from blacks about what a racist country this is supposed to be. Ever." Why don't you take your hateful, left-wing garbage someplace where it will be appreciated - like the DailyKOS or Democrat Underground? There's no room for your moronic prattle here.

Prager, aside of the fact that you right wingers are anything but "conservative", here is what is fundamentally wrong with your basic premise: You find the strength of a person's humanity reflected in how he acts when he has power, not when he's been stripped of it. Any jailbird can swear on his mother's grave he'll be good from now on as long as he's safely behind bars. The Republicans gobble-gobble-gobbled away with all that sweet talk until they finally suckered the nation in to giving them full dominion, and then they revealed their true selves and behaved like the vultures they truly are. Not just liberals, but the entire world had reason to mourn Bush's re-election in 2004. Just look around at the mess President Obama has to clean up.
