To that end, I find it very fitting that just one week ago this evening (as is nearly the case every four years), participatory politics determined the next course for the nation and made history at the same time. I know that some folks are exceedingly happy and others are fairly dismayed. I'm just kind of ambivalent. As is frequently the case, I see the potential for good policy AND/OR bad policy over at least the next four years. I know that many on "the right" think that Obama will veer far left and guarantee the GOP a win in four years but I'm not so sure. The world will probably not end (unless the Mayans were right) so hopefully we will see.....
Thank a vet.......

The ambivalence you speak of may be well justified... if there's anything THIS vet has learned, it is that - politicians ARE politicians... ALL of them... ergo, only believe what you SEE, & fully trust that there is much going on behind the scenes that you can NOT see... Obama may be a kool dood, but being a politician means he's just another liar... that IS what we hire these folks for, remember... to convince the MOST folks that they can make their dream(s) come true... just a vets $.02 worth
