Congratulations


Soap Box Ravings would like to congratulate President-elect Obama for a well bought election.

Soap Box Ravings would also like to point out that he believes President Obama, Senator Reid and Speaker Pelosi will:

1. Not increase our oil supply thereby increasing fuel costs,

2. Not use coal nor nuclear power thereby increasing energy costs,

3. Increase the restrictions on firearms (he has the votes now),

4. Rewrite the Fairness Doctrine to destroy "talk" radio, and

5. Increase all of those taxes Obama said would not increase.

The increased taxes coupled with increasing fuel costs and energy costs will cause major job losses and a even more rapid slowing of the economy. When this happens, the Democrats in power will assure everyone that their problem is President Bush's fault.

But when that happens, remember that Obama and company campaigned for the job knowing the economy was "bad" and they promised they had a plan to "save the country" with change. I hope they were right but I never believed them then and I don't believe them now.

Now I could be wrong with my forecast. With judicious use of the "Fairness Doctrine" an extremely biased media and no interviews except with friendly sources, an individual may never even learn about future in-country problems unless of course it is your personal ox which is gored.

Another interesting footnote for the day: As soon as I woke up this morning news radio announced that Obama would be our next President.........and the sun did not shine all day.
