It's Been A While...

Faithful readership (if there are any of you still out there) I am back. Sorry about the lull in activity for a little bit my work schedule got out of hand, I was sick, I was away. A million reasons as to why the world's most successful untalked about blog was at a stand still. Rest assured I am now here and furthermore now re-dedicated to making "Blogging Barrack" a great place.

I've thought long and hard about it and I still have a rough time believing that Barack is our president. My personal dislike of his Cape Cod elitist attitude, and his arrogant nose up turned self esteem aside, it just is unbelievable (in a good way) that this country could lay race down and vote a black man into office.

I must however stop there and remind everyone that Barack Obama won with about 53% of the popular vote in 2008. To put that number in prosepctive, when Bush "narrowly" defeated Kerry in the election of 2004, he won with 51% of the popular vote. I fail to see where those 2 precentage points make the difference between "Country united" in 2008, and "Country divded" in 2004.

If someone could make me see that, or help me understand I would appericate it.

But back to Barack. He's a great oreator of that there is simply no doubt. He has a way to energize and excite those around him, particularly young people. Good for him. Or is it?

Did you know that the head of Barack Obama's campaign was one of the co founder's of Facebook? I mean when you have someone like that on the pay roll, young people should just fall in line.

Think about it, you know excatly the trends that are big. You're facebook group is the way you contact the most people. In the course of a few months Barack and his team rewrote the campaign running books, for better or worse.

I cannot believe all of this happened, in the manner in which it did. It still causes me to shake my head.

I get into the situation where I began to wonder "Oh but what if!"

What if:
-The Republicans had a stronger canidate.
-The Republicans hadn't faltered to mention key issues in cities that needed them.
-John McCain wouldn't have picked Sarah Palin, but rather Roomney or Huckabee.
-Hiliary Clinton would've gotten the Democratic nomination.

No matter how you spin it we will never know. History didn't fall that way. Instead here we are with a trillion dollars being made out of thin air. That can't be a good thing.

I hope the current times find you all in good health, with a job and with a support group of family and friends. For those of you with an ideology such as mine, keep your chins high but prepare for what could be a roller coaster ride of Biblical proportions. For those of you who oppose my color (red) and my direction (right) enjoy YOUR canidate.

Hope and change...hope and change.
