		<description>ELECTION EUPHORIA: THE DEATH OF WHITE GUILT!

GUEST EDITORIAL BY TOM ADKINS

No matter whether you are a Republican or a Democrat, there is a silver lining here that is worth thinking about. We all won! We will see how it all turns out.

Here ya go !

Look at my fellow conservatives! There they go, glumly shuffling along, depressed by the election aftermath. Not me. Iâ€™m virtually euphoric. 

Donâ€™t get me wrong. Iâ€™m not thrilled with America â€™s flirtation with neo-socialism. But thereâ€™s a massive silver lining in those magical clouds that lofted Barak Obama to the Presidency. For today, without a shred of intellectually legitimate opposition, I can loudly proclaim to America: The Era of White Guilt is over.

This seemingly impossible event occurred because the vast majority of white Americans didnâ€™t give a fluff about skin color, and enthusiastically pulled the voting lever for a black man. Not just any black man. A very liberal black man who spent his early career race-hustling banks, praying in a racist church for 20 years, and actively working with America-hating domestic terrorists. 

Wow! Some resume! Yet they made Barack Obama their leader. Therefore, as of Nov 4th, 2008, white guilt is dead.

For over a century, the millstone of white guilt hung around our necks, retribution for slave-owning predecessors. In the 60s, American liberals began yanking that millstone while sticking a fork in the eye of black Americans, exacerbating the racial divide to extort a socialist solution. But if a black man can become President, exactly what significant barrier is left? The election of Barack Obama absolutely destroys the entire validation of liberal white guilt. The dragon is hereby slain.

So today, Iâ€™m feeling a little â€œuppity,â€ if you will. From this day forward, my tolerance level for having my skin color hustled is now exactly ZERO. And itâ€™s time to clean house. No more Reverend Wrightâ€™s â€œGod Damn America,â€ Al Sharptonâ€™s Church of Perpetual Victimization, or Jesse Jacksonâ€™s rainbow racism. Cornell West? Youâ€™re a fraud. Go home. All those â€œblack studiesâ€ programs that taught kids to hate whitey? You must now thank whitey. And I want that on the final exam.

Congressional Black Caucus? Irrelevant. Maxine Waters? Shut up. ACORN? Outlawed. Black Panthers? Go home and pet your kitty. Black separatists? Find another nation that offers better dreams. Go ahead. Iâ€™m waiting.

Gangsta rappers?...

		<description>The reason others in the left-wing are upset is they dont realize that you have to complete the realignment first, you can&#039;t put the wagon before the horse, the GOP still has a strong bloc in the senate, getting to 60 while not impossible is unlikely, and with many blue dogs in the senate, pushing a truly progressive agenda will be difficult; right now, in order to truly fix the problems this country is facing he needs to have help from the GOP, so a centrist stance is the only way he&#039;ll get things done.  If he plays his cards right, in a few years he&#039;ll have a full house (and senate), full of progressive dems.</description>
