Obama Reved Up About Uniting Nation

As the United States sat with rapt attention watching the devestation of Haiti unfold, Obama remained optimistic that his second year of office would concentrate on and BE SUCCESSFUL in uniting a nation pulled apart by forces less than natural. Wait...our nation is divided???

Obama: Goal to unite nation is still unfulfilled

Get right out of town! Huh. So if his second year is about unity, his first year must have been about plowing a chasm between the two parties to rival the Grand Canyon. That's good thinking. I follow that logic myself many times. How can you truly reap all of the adoration for fixing something if it hasn't completely gone to hell in the first place?! That's sound strategy.

While we wait to see how the Haitian disaster will play out and pray for those it effects, it might behoove some here in the U.S. to remember that there's an earthquake here on our home turf that might tip the richter above 7. Unbeknowst to the cronies at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., both the right and the left may have succeeded in a unity far greater than Obama ever dreamed... they just didn't expect it to happen in the middle.
