To all my fellow conservative friends...

For God's sake, pull yourselves together!! You're acting like this is the first democratic president this country has ever had. It's not. You will be fine. We will be fine. America will be fine. Stop crying and acting like it is the end of the free world. Your melo-drama is really annoying. Do you remember when Bush won his second term and Alec Baldwin said he was going to move to England? You are acting just as crazy. Our country is not a dictatorship. Our country is a democracy. Barack Obama does not have supreme authority to do as he pleases. He is not a terrorist. He is not trying to run the country into the ground. Stop listening to Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh and think rationally for yourselves. Quit your whining and get over it. Let's move on. There is something you can do. You can make a difference in your country. For starters you can stop building these divisive walls, and start working with people as opposed to alienating them.

I don't care who the president is, even if I didn't vote for him. My hope does not lie in him. My hope lies in God first, then the American people. We will be fine.

Excellent, my friend! It's been remarkable how a quick browse of Facebook status' has reavelaed how racist and scared to death many of my friends are. My dad could not sleep the night after the election for worry. It is going to be just fine, and I appreciate your voice of reason. Plus, I imagine Obama will fly in a helicopter too, huh?

Well said Steven. Unfortunately too many evangelicals think it's a NT principle that the U.S. should only elect Conservative Republican white guys who think like we do. We would do well to refresh our memories of Romans 13:1: "Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God."
