wishes, good and ill, for president barack hussein obama

President Barack Hussein Obama. Good to write that. Best wishes to him - he'll need it.

Of course, not everybody wishes him well.

Take, for example, good old Rush Limbaugh. In an interview, Limbaugh openly expressed his desire that Obama fail.

So, Limbaugh either fails to understand that a failed presidency would have serious consequences for the United States - especially NOW, following one grievously failed presidency, with the economy in a shambles, climate changing, and two wars going on. OR Limbaugh is such a partisan tool that he is willing to accept such consequences; in other words, he values partisanship and conservatism above the well-being of the United States of America and its people.

I vote for the latter.

On the other hand, it could be the oxycontin talking.
