The Inauguration

18 01 2009

I’m not quite sure if I’ve mentioned this before but for the record I do not watch television. I haven’t watched television in quite a few years. I mostly get my news from word of mouth and then I look things up on the internet.

 

But I have found recently that I have been missing out on some pretty important issues and not hearing about them until a day or two later. So, I have gotten myself a news ticker for my desktop. I have also posted a news RSS feed on the side of my blog here. I have decided to go with the Jerusalem Post because I am very interested in what happens in the Middle East and more importantly in Israel. I am not ashamed to state or admit that I am Pro-Israel and since they seem to be the focal point of World News I decided it would be best to choose the Jerusalem Post for my RSS feed.

 

Anyway, we are just a couple of days away from the Inauguration of Mr. President Obama. While I did not vote for Mr. Obama, I will stand behind him as my new President. However, if he does not do a good job, or if he does something I disagree with I will voice my concerns. But being my President he deserves a fair chance from me and it is my hope & prayer that he is a good President. I certainly hope that this administration is better than the one exiting.

 

I know a lot of people are looking for to and are excited about this Inauguration. It certainly is History in the making. So it is an exciting time for us here in the US of A. And I do hope that Mr. President Obama can truly bring change to America as was his campaign promise. We most certainly do need change and it is my hope and prayer that Mr. President Obama accomplishes his goals.

 

The one thing I do not miss about watching television at this time is because I hate the fact that the media reports on a new President for the first 30 days, then the first 60 days, then the first 90 days, etc. It is so annoying how they count the days and tell us what he’s accomplished in that amount of time. As if the President can solve all the world’s problems within the first 100 days in office. It just aggravates me to no end.

 

But you can rest assured I will be keeping my eyes focused on the news ticker that I’ve added to my desktop. I think now is a crucial time to stay on top of the news. Not only for us here in the US of A but also with the things going on all around the globe.

 

I am very much into Eschatology and I tend to view the news with a slightly different angle than the average person. I like to see how things just might fit into the End Times events. I do believe we are living in the End Times. Now of course, End Times does not mean the next 4 years, it could be within the next 100 years or the next 1000 years. But I do believe it will happen within my life time. At least I hope it does. I’m ready. I’ve been ready my entire life. But I suppose End Times is a whole separate blog.

 

Anyway, I just wanted to touch on the Inauguration. I hope all you folks who will be going and being a part of this Historic Event, that you truly enjoy the festivities. I also hope that you folks who plan on watching the Inauguration from your televisions that you enjoy what you see and hear. As for me, I will just sit back and read the headlines of what is going on. Plus, I have a friend who is going so I will get some juicy inside information.

 

And to be quite honest the one thing I am just dieing to learn is just what type of dog Mr. Obama is going to buy for his daughters. How exciting, I love dogs and I’m sure the girls are just as excited as if it were the night before Christmas.

 

So, for now…
