Obama's Kool-Aid
"However, the prospect of an Obama presidency is not just scary, it is sad.   Obama talks of hope, but it begs the question: Are we so morally depleted as a  society that we need government to inspire us and give us hope?  Has  anyone gone into the Department of Motor Vehicles or the Post Office lately?   That is government; it is long lines and instant coffee.  And there is nothing  wrong with that.  As James Madison recognized, government is necessary...it is  also not to be trusted.  It certainly should not inspire.  American ideals  should inspire.  Parents should inspire. The kid down the street who is serving  in Iraq should inspire.  Not government."
