Wow, seriously? Change.gov, and just two days after the election. Like I've said, this guy is masterful. And, he's got an agenda and he's going to get it rolling.

In the email below, from President Elect Barack Obama, there's some good hint toward how he intends to keep the pressure on to continue the movement. "We have a lot of work to do to get our country back on track, and I'll be in touch soon about what comes next."

Congratulations Barack Obama. Fact is, this is a big success for minorities in America. I don't agree with his political ideology, but I'm proud to live in a country where he can win an election.

I'm very happy for the Obama family and everyone in America that identifies with him.

I'll admit it. I voted Bob Barr, the Libertarian candidate that doesn't even have a party affiliation (on the ticket) in Alabama. That doesn't say much for the Libertarian party in Alabama. In any event, I voted a protest vote because my vote doesn't mean a hill of beans in Alabama. So, I cast my vote for freedom instead of a likely candidate.

Man, whatever you think about Barack Obama this guy understands marketing. He's got a pitch, he's got a story, and he tells it over and over and over and over until he closes the deal. He's the quintessential salesman. His product stinks, but his pitch is solid.

Cory the well driller lives in Texas and runs a well drilling business. He's also started a total of four businesses in Texas, offering jobs to local Texans, offering real value to his customers. Cory is what we used to call a productive American. And, this is his open letter to Senator Obama regarding his intent to spread the wealth.

The University of Alabama has come under fire for it's intolerance of free speech. Auburn (the other big state university) has also been known as a school unfriendly to free speech.

It makes headlines because it's in Alabama. But, don't think for one moment that northern and western colleges don't have their own versions of censorship.

Syria seems to have problems developing due to a growing Lebanese revolt.  Some, like people in Lebanon, are suggesting this has something to do with the President's persistent support for freedom in the Middle East.

If the high court decides that property rights are superseded by tax potential, the first and most sacred economic freedom is gone. Welcome to serfdom.
