It's here - thank the good Lord it's here - now we can get started on the presidential election of 2012.
I am so weary of the political hoopla - and I'm a political junky. But the level of animosity is beyond any I've witnessed. It's tiring.
I will be curious to see how soon the newly elected begin demuring - begin blaming their ineffectiveness on everyone from their predecessors to the terrorists.
Can we talk? Really - can we talk? I don't want to argue. I don't want to decide who's a patriot and who's not. I don't want to call names and trade blame. Can we talk?
It's the only way I can see out of the poisinous climate of discourse in which we find ourselves.
It occurs to me that if we as Christians REALLY want to have some impact on the political scene, the biggest contribution we could make is civility.....respect.....trust.....mercy......compassion.....and oh yeah - love.
I know, I know......get real!
