Something to Think About

Obviously, I am not happy about the election results.  I suspect that within six months there will be many people not happy with the election results, but that will come later.  It's one thing to be criticized for a policy that does not work or a bad decision--that is understandable and should be part of the political dialogue, but we need to stop personally attacking our leaders--regardless of which party they belong to.  The good news is that the media will be much kinder to Barack Obama than they were to George Bush--which brings me to an article in today's Wall Street Journal Online.  It should be remembered that our enemies during the cold war felt that they could destroy a country by destroying its leader.  We may be in danger of falling into that trap.
