I very much agree; the disrespect liberals/Democrats gave George W. Bush from day 1 was greatly unwarranted, and it weakened the position of the presidency. Like him-- or her-- not, a president is a president, and if we as citizens don't show our respect, it only weakens us as a country. I don't like that Barack Obama won, but I'm not going to spend the next four years slandering him and picketing his actions-- or lack thereof. I'll give him a chance, and I'll hold out hope that the conservatives can come up with an awesome opponent for him come election day in November '12. And the good news is that since I make less than $30,000 a year, I'm pretty sure that my tax bracket is low enough that I won't be taxed too much :) Well said, Kevin.
