Inaugural Process
The Inaugural process always gives me goose bumps and President Obama’s is no exception. As a matter of fact, being a history buff and after hearing his address I can honestly say hands down it is the most defining and uplifting speech any President has given at his Inauguration. It was idealistic, uplifting, pragmatic, and delivered in only a way a great orator like Obama can deliver.
Let’s also not forget the crowd. There was a phenomenal turnout, possibly the largest ever and one that pales in comparison to that of President George W. Bush’s.
“Why am I hailing Obama”, you may be wondering. I haven’t converted to the left, nor have I began to side with President Obama’s proposed legislation’s, nor have I defected from the right in what some say is the darkest hour of the GOP. Simply put, this is a lesson in leadership, political theatrics, motivational speech, and unconventional campaigning that Republicans must learn from. We have 4 years (possibly 8 years) to redefine our party and set coarse for a new GOP, a better GOP, and most of all an uplifting GOP. Let’s put our minds together and set that coarse.
There’s nothing wrong with saluting Obama for having a good speech. I’m sure it is just one of many elegant speeches to come for the next 4 to 8 years. I, For One, Welcome Our New
AlienDemocrat Overlords.In the spirit of cooperation and non-partisan politics I sure hope the two parties can come together to give me that upper-lower-middle class tax break.
Hey Jeff, I agree! and let’s not forget President Obama did run a campaign on tax cuts. Hopefully they trickle on over our way.
