I have been relieved at the "broad tent" administration of the president-elect's administration. I am also encouraged by Obama's choice of Rick Warren to do the prayer of invocation at his much anticipated inaugural address. This at least shows that Obama does not have an open hostility to evangelicals.
I still remain concerned about a number of issues. There are three in particualar. 1) Future federal court picks. 2) Overturning pro-life policies. 3) A 1 trillion dollar stimulus package.
The 1 trillion dollar stimulus package will be Franklin Roosovelt's New Deal on steroids. What we know about the New Deal is that it did not work in the 1930's. If anything it prolonged the Great Depression. The Great Depression was broken because industry was revitalized out of the need created by the Second World War.
What makes us believe that another New Deal will nor worsen our financial Ordeal??? Our nation has come so far economically. Let's help our economy, not overhaul it.
