Obama Has Finally Given Me Hope!

Hopeful Former Obama Supporter

Well, it took a while, but now when somebody asks me "Got Hope?", I can finally answer "yes!"  This new surge of optimism is entirely due to Obama.  I'll be the first to admit that at first, the Chosen One disheartened me and made me feel that we were facing dark times.  But after nine months of listening to the dangerous nonsense that was coming out of this administration, I finally believe. (And no, that's not me above!)

I believe that Americans are awakening.  I believe that they are fighting back (see yesterday's blog).  I believe that they are tired of being lied to and treated as if they were fools.  I believe that come 2010, they will take out the full measure of their anger at the polls and make this current batch of miscreants in Washington pay the price for being charlatans.  I believe that Americans value their freedoms and their constitutional rights.  Even though there are huge fights ahead, I believe that we can save our nation from political destruction.

So, given the hope that Obama has instilled in me, I'm always on the lookout for news that shows we are winning battles (yes I know you can win the battle and lose the war.  But you've got to win a bunch of battles to win a war.)  So, here's another piece of good news for you to enjoy:

Seems newspaper circulation across the board is down.  The author blames the internet and declining ad revenue as the culprits but I like to think that it's also the fact that people are tired of being fed a continual, never ending line of left wing liberal crap.  This in turn has led to a flight to the internet for information which in turn has caused former newspaper readers to drop their subscriptions.  This of course has led to a drop in ad revenue which in turn is driving a stake into the heart of this socialist cesspool.  The great news is that the Wall Street Journal, with its new ownership and conservative editorial slant, is thriving.  Go figure!

We haven't won this battle, not by a long shot.  I the weeks ahead, look for our Progressive pals in Congress and the White House to come up with some grand plan to bail out the newspaper industry.  After all, you can't let your personal toady die.  Who else would be around to kiss your butt if you did?  And of course, this effort will be cloaked in the guise of "protecting honesty and freedom."

Watch out for this ploy from the left.  And, when they make their move to bail out their compliant mouthpiece, don't let them.  Not without one hell of a fight!
