Stand Behind President

The election is over. It is supposed to be time for all Americans to stand behind who was elected from what I am hearing from television reporters (coming from those who had nothing but hate for Bush...go figure). I am hearing a lot of fear this morning on the news over Barack Obama and am wondering how well some Americans are going to be able to "stand behind" and "unite" behind him?

For me personally, I don't feel that I can stand behind a man that I don't trust to have Americans' best interests at heart. The politics aside, his connections to a terrorist and hate-spewing racist alone give me more than enough pause to stop me from doing so. While I watched him win on the news, my immediate feeling was deep dread and of not wanting to be in the U.S. over the next four years (transferring to Japan isn't sounding so bad right now). (Just kidding big sister...I won't actually leave the country:)

So I am left with trying to figure out where I stand on this and the gut feeling that electing him was a mistake. I don't stand behind Barack Obama right now. I can't predict the future but from everything I have seen so far of him, it isn't in me to do so. He has to prove himself to me.

Being American, this is my choice to do so.

Now that the election is done and over, it's time to lighten up on the politics on here. However, I do tend to get riled up so don't be surprised if once in awhile, my fingers do the talking for what my mouth can't say and be heard.

Here's a funny for the day.
