My daughter was shocked to see all the negative, hateful things that her Republican friends wrote on their Facebook pages about our new President. She said that she would never think of writing those things about McCain, had he won. My almost DIL was surrounded by hateful and racist opinions at work today. You'd think that in this country in the year 2008 that we would be above this type of behaviour. Ironic that it's coming from the so-called "religious" folks who just can't see above their own agendas to accept and at the very least, tolerate others. Perhaps, as parents, those people should take this event and turn it into a lesson in tolerance and maybe even change.
While I've never been prouder of our country for trying to right all the wrongs that have been done over the last 8 years, I'm deeply ashamed of those who refuse to accept that the world is changing and your thoughts and opinions could, maybe, need some adjusting.
Go Obama!
