Fallout from the election

I heard on the news today that Texans are so unhappy about Obama's win that they want to secede from the Union.  I think that's a terrific idea!  If we'd have no more Texas, the following would result:

1.  Federal agents would no longer have to guard the texas/Mexico border.

2.  When the next hurricane hits Galveston, FEMA wouldn't have to come and help and then be criticized because they didn't do enough.

3.  If a terrorist would bomb Dallas, the FBI wouldn't have to get involved.

4.  All the people in Texas who are on food stamps, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and other Federal programs would no longer qualify; the savings would be plenty to really reduce the national debt.

5.  The Federal government would no longer have to provide grants for highways, bridges and updating the electrical grid in Texas.

6.  Future U.S. elections wouldn't have to include someone like Rick Perry.

7.  The airways wouldn't be so full of "talking heads" talking trash about the President of the United States -- the man who the Bible directs us to respect.

Soo - if it comes up for a vote -- I'm for it!

When I came home this afternoon, the light on the phone was blinking indicating a voice mail message, so I dialed in and it was one of these "robocalls" (thought we were done with them after the election).  This was a message from someone who was ranting all kinds of untruths about Obama and raving that now was the time to impeach him!  (This caller must have been from Texas!)  Really, Republicans are such sore losers!
Obama won the election - 332 electoral votes to Romney's 206 votes. 

If you remember the 2000 election, George Bush won the electoral votes, but Al Gore won the popular votes, but the Democrats are far more gracious than the Republicans are when they lose. 

Frankly, I am worred about President Obama's safety.  In the last few days, a man in our city was arrested because he had plans to shoot up some schools, and also to assassinate the president.  If something like that happens, I can guarantee that the shooter is not a Democrat, nor an Independent -- guess that means it would be a Republican - a member of the "party of family values".  I agree with Gov. Jindahl (I think he's governor of Louisiana, but I'm not sure) who has come out and said that the Republican party needs to stop doing such dumb things.  AMEN, BROTHER!

Ok, now I've vented again.  Let's all get back to sanity!
