Gabber--
FYI - Jesus was a liberal; he threw out the corrupt money changers from the temple. He didn't listen to the powers that be -- the Pharisees-- and turned the whole concept of how to worship on its head. So maybe you only read the Old Testament and haven't gotten to the Word of Christ yet. If so, read it post haste--it might open your mind--as Christ's major edict to all his followers was to "love one another". Love not hate is the way, the truth and the light. Let go of your hatred and accept that the election happened on Nov 4th and Barack Obama won--that other guy got creamed.

The Obama Uprising

Now he's got the ball, and he'll be judged by his performance. His first appointment, the hard-hitting and abrasive Rahm Emanuel, signals both toughness and conviction. Emanuel is firmly entrenched in moderate, DLC politics, co-authoring a book with Bruce Reed, the keeper of the centrist flame at the Democratic Leadership Council. Republicans will try to demonize House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid as the far left version of Newt Gingrich and Tom DeLay, but both will resist playing to type. Pelosi has a bigger and more conservative majority and Reid, a pro-life Mormon, is up for re-election in 2010. How far left can they go—especially with no money?
Obama joins the pantheon of FDR and LBJ as the third biggest vote getter on the Democratic side in terms of the percentage of votes cast. Franklin Roosevelt took office during the depths of the Great Depression; Lyndon Johnson in the wake of the Kennedy assassination. At the beginning of his improbable journey, Obama counted himself among those who wondered whether someone named Barack Hussein Obama could be elected president. "Obama resurrects American Dream," declared the headline of a German newspaper. Obama has changed how the world sees us, and how we see ourselves. He has a big job ahead—but he's got a bigger head start than most presidents get.
