Redneck Tree Hugger

I got an email containing this letter and thought it was great. I checked it out to make sure it was legitimate, and it is. Here's the link. This guy out in Colorado makes the *conservative* case that Barack Obama is the best thing that's ever happened to America. When I first saw the headline I thought, oh geez, here's a true liberal believer...but then I went on to read it. He makes some very good points.

Obama is the symbol of a creeping liberalism that has infected our society like a cancer for the last 100 years. Just as Hitler is the face of fascism, Obama will go down in history as the face of unchecked liberalism. The cancer metastasized to the point where it could no longer be ignored.

I think he's right. Read the whole thing, it's really good. I've often said that one bright spot about Obama being elected is that he has woken a lot of people up, but I would have to stop short of saying he's the best thing that's ever happened to America. I guess he is...IF we can stop it in time. If we can get our majorities back in November and make the contrast between liberal and conservative painfully obvious to Americans, then yeah, his election might have been just what we needed. If we don't, though, I think he will inflict so much damage that it will take decades to right the wrongs, if indeed it can be done. Fortunately, I do agree with Mr. Hubbell that Americans have seen what unchecked liberalism can do, and most of them don't like it. I just hope the fire in their bellies continues to burn so that we can get eradicate liberalism in this country. Okay, maybe that's a bit too much to hope for...there are the large number of idiots who elected Obama in the first place to deal with, but hopefully a lot of them have had their eyes opened, too. All I can say is, keep praying that Mr. Hubbell is right!
