President-elect Barack H. Obama and his well deserved vacation

Everyone who works hard deserves a vacation. Since he was elected on Nov.4, 2008, there is no denying that President-elect Barack H. Obama has been working hard.

A nearly full cabinet of highly-qualified individuals, almost 70% of Americans have been pleased with the way he has handled himself and the choices he has made and even Religious Right stalwart Pat Robertson has praised him for his cabinet picks. (For whatever that's worth!)

As I watched AC360 on CNN and some of the news coverage of President-elect Barack H. Obama's vacation in Hawaii, I was really glad that he actually took some time off to spend with his family. Their life has already changed immeasurably, and after January 20, 2009, it will definitely never be the same for Mr. Obama, his wife Michelle and his two daughters.

There are so many high expectations, so many promises to be kept, so many problems to be solved. He is inheriting a terrible mess caused by 8 years of GWB (Guns, War and Bloodshed) and his administration.

It will be interesting to watch. It already has been, and he hasn't even taken the Oath of Office!

A "well deserved vacation" indeed.

But can any kind of vacation apart from GOD ALMIGHTY give President-elect Barack H. Obama the strength and ability he will need to solve the problems he is about to face? I do not think so.

"GWB (Guns, War and BLOODSHED)", What A Name!
"..ALL THEY THAT TAKE THE SWORD SHALL PERISH WITH THE SWORD." Will President-Elect Barack H. Obama and all the "highly-qualified individuals" that he has assembled be able to stop all that BLOOD from flowing? "FOR ALL THEY THAT TAKE THE SWORD SHALL PERISH WITH THE SWORD."
