“Be Careful What You Wish For.”

While I didn’t vote for Barack Obama, I must still confess that I was one of the ex-Republican, libertarian leaning folks who found reason to quietly cheer his election. On some of the key issues of the day, I was simply done with the GOP. I couldn’t stand our foreign policy under Bush and I was horrified at the prospect of having another Republican stacking the Supreme Court with more bodies in the mold of Roberts and Alito, throwing off the balance for generations.

In those areas, I’ve gotten what I wished for. I have backed our President in these pages for his handling of foreign affairs. While I find Sonia Sotomayor less than impressive, I take comfort in thinking how this would be playing out if John McCain were in office. But when you get what you wish for, you generally get a whole lot more, and not all of it desirable. The current state of affairs for our economy and domestic prosperity, along with hints of what’s to come, make me think that the Democrats have fooled me yet again. This is the subject of my column this week at Pajamas Media… RINOs, Be Careful What You Wish For. I invite you to read, digest and heap your derision upon me along with PJM’s readers.
