Wow, how times are changing. Barack Obama was right, the American people do want change. The thing that is interesting is that the party that lost sounds like the new anti-American bunch. They lost the election. We have to assume that they presented their issues, concerns and policies to the American people and that the American people rejected them.
That's a democracy.
So why do we have so much animosity and disrespect from the party that says it loves traditional American values so much that some of its leaders have openly discussed secession. The last time this was tried was about 150 years ago and we all know how that ended up.
A democracy means that the people are represented by their government. Great nations need strong leaders. As the times change the leaders must change to reflect the needs, demands and values of the people. That is what happened with our most recent election. The people have spoken, but some believe the people really don't know what they want.
The American people believe in the rule of law, not fear mongering and adhering to the law when it is convenient and breaking the law when adherence is inconvenient. Maybe I'm wrong, but I didn't know that disobeying the rule of law was a "Republican" value.
