An Error in My Writings

I am writing this in response to a phone call I received today regarding my last post. I want to apologize to anyone that I may have offended. I was only writing my opinion on the election. I was not attacking any specific people I know voted for Obama. I was writing mostly to get a point across about the upcoming leader of our nation & that we now need to support him as such. My feelings about voting selfishly was a feeling about the general population that voted for Obama, not everyone. I realize that some people voted knowing his position on certain issues & that different issues are important to different people. I also know that some people I know DID vote without educating themselves on both opponents.

For some reason, politics is a very sensitive issue. It seems to be something that most people either force their opinion on others or it is something that others absolutely do not talk about because they know what happens with the former group of people. I tend to fall into the latter category & have not made my opinion known in the past. It is interesting that the first time I do say anything I end up wishing I had kept quiet. I have seen friendships become messy when politics get in the way. I have seen good people argue vehemently about who is right and why the other is wrong. Or the more subtle approach I have gotten from people is the smug look. You know the one that says, "Hmmm, I disagree with you. You are completely stupid & I don't even want to hear your side."

At any rate, I want to apologize for offending the Obama voters. I realize that neither candidate would have been the perfect president. My intent was to state my opinion on the candidates and where I stand now. I will pray to God who knows me, and trust that He knows our future as a nation & that His will be done. I still commit myself to praying for the new First Family's protection & that our President-Elect will look to the Almighty for guidance. Thanks for your comments!!! Have a blessed day!
