The Morning After - Initial Thoughts

Started by Randy · 8 months ago

Albert Mohler has an *excellent* article for conservative Christians. My favorite part is below. You have to read the whole thing. (more after the jump.)

    And for that record, that was not a comment on Obama - it was a comment on my state's ballot questions.

    I agree that we shouldn't question people's patriotism simply because they oppose a president and/or his policies. Still, there are those on the Left who genuinely despise America's identity and values. Their patriotism isn't in question, really. They have none.

    I want to see if the President-elect can deliver. I worry less about him than Sens. Biden and Reid and Speaker Pelosi. I am not sure if there will be any true bipartisanship in his cabinet yet.

    I was sharing with a friend that I was worried that the entrenched, hard core, long time Democrat partisans will want to push Obama around. He isn't some young whipper snapper but ... in relative terms... he is young and inexperienced.

    HI JACK!

    Hi Randy! Perhaps this is why the President-elect has chosen a partisan figure as his possible chief of staff. It might stop, meanwhile, any of the senior Democrats from pushing President-elect Obama into certain positions. I am trying to read this as positively as possible, because on the flip side one could say that this choice is a harbinger of the partisanship in an Obama cabinet.

    Given his track record, he has never been one to be a harbinger of bipartisanship. He says that he wants to be ... we will see.
