Hope...Again...At Last!

Five years...such a long time to go without feeling hope in one's spirit...but that is what those American's who couldn't see through the "Good Ol' Boy" charade the current resident at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue showed the world were suckered into electing their regime in to power. Five years...of absolute control and tenacious strangle-hold over all three branches of our Government. Five years of no checks and balance against the autocracy of George W. Bush and his puppet master, Dick Cheney. Five years of corrupt rewriting of the very basics of the Constitution that they had been empowered to defend and protect by the voters they betrayed.

BUT Now we have some hope...thanks to yesterday's sweeping of American politics by so many areas in the government machinery.

Now is the time for this regime to be reminded that they are not ABOVE the Law...that they cannot rewrite the Constitution just so they can continue illegal and immoral acts.

Now the WORLD that did NOT vote this corrupt incompetence, has cause to hope too. Imagine not being given the opportunity to chose this regime, but having to endure the consequences of this administration and its neo-con autocracy?

I hope Americans now realize that when they vote for the top office, they are also voting for the person who will effect not just us, but the tenor of the world too. We have a responsibility that is far wider in scope than JUST choosing the head of OUR Country. We are not ostriches who can bury our heads in the ground. Like it or not, we are a GLOBAL community and as such must choose those who represent us with far more care than we have ever had to in the past.

I hope this new wave puts the breaks on 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and its covert violation of all that America stands for. I hope the wave of yesterday's change ripples out and finally reins in this White House and its band of sorry bandits. Because we need to remember this White House STILL has two more years of mucking about.

Oh, and how is it a change to bring in another Bush bud to run this war? I am, of course, speaking of the schnook who is Rummy's replacement!
