Got this from the NRA today:


We Won, the NRA Lost, Now Let's Get Busy

Dear XXXXXX,

     Jim and I couldn't be more pleased and proud of what you helped make happen this week. We have a tremendous opportunity with our new leaders.

     I can tell you: it hasn't been this good for quite a while!

     The NRA is reeling from their election defeats. They lost in states where they spent millions on ad campaigns and endorsements. Now they are quickly re-building their war chest to fight us all the way.

     You know me as a do-er. I like to make things happen — especially when it results in saving lives.  And as much as I want to breathe a sigh of relief after this week's election, we need to get busy.

Please help with an immediate donation to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.


I don't want to lose any time getting the new Congress and the White House to move our life-saving agenda forward.
Click here to donate.

I want our newly elected officials to hit the ground running as much as you do. We need the new Congress to close the gun show loophole, enact a comprehensive assault weapons ban, and stop illegal gun trafficking.

We can't wait another moment to get started on the tough work ahead.

We have many allies in Congress. More than 91 percent of Brady-endorsed candidates won their races. And President-elect Obama and Vice President-elect Biden are strong and consistent supporters of common sense gun measures.

But they need to hear from the Brady Campaign right now.
Please contribute to the Brady Campaign to make sensible gun laws a top priority in this new Administration.

Sincerely,
,
Sarah Brady, Chair

P.S. The Brady Campaign has so many allies in Congress now.
Please donate today to help move quickly to pass sensible gun laws.

I am not sure were we--the american republic--go from here. One burning question for me is 'if a person becomes president of this republic, do they lose the hyphenated title?' Are they still simply an African-American, or do they now get the much more honorable title of simply: 'American'? Its simple, and means everything.

Teddy Roosevelt said:

 "There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all. This is just as true of the man who puts "native" before the hyphen as of the man who puts German or Irish or English or French before the hyphen. Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul. Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other allegiance. But if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else."

Has this changed? Or is B. H. O'bama now really an American, even though he has fought for everything that America didn't used to stand for? What do we call him?

My two thoughts for the outcome of O'bama's investiture (that is what they do for saints, right?) are for bumper stickers:

O'BAMA 1; US: 0

and

Welcome to the U.S.S.A.

Wonder if the SS is going to come for me now?

Leave it to the Brits to cut away all the campaign retoric:

'You have to pinch yourself - a Marxist radical who all his life has been mentored by, sat at the feet of, worshiped with, befriended, endorsed the philosophy of, funded and been in turn funded, politically promoted and supported by a nexus comprising black power anti-white racists, Jew-haters, revolutionary Marxists, unrepentant former terrorists and Chicago mobsters, is on the verge of becoming President of the United States.  And, apparently it's considered impolite to say so.'
