I do agree with you. Now is the moment we have to judge him based on his actions as President. I also appreciate your comment by offering support without blind adoration. I have no issues with that... However, I do feel some people have been inflicted with "Obamamadness" and would follow him off a cliff. I do not want people to beat on him just on his first full day of office, nor do I want people to just agree to every thing he does either. Again, Dobie, thanks for the post.. Lambo Dobie,

I have been on all sides in the past. I have seen the person I voted for take the oath of office. I have also watched the person I voted against take that same oath. In all cases, I watched someone become my president. Whether you voted for or against Obama doesn't matter anymore. The question of who is going to become the 44th President has been settled. Now we need to give him our support as he leads this country. That does not mean we give into blind adoration (the media seems to be doing this quite well). It means that we recognize the election is over, and we start judging our new President by what he does now. For all our sakes, I hope he does well.
