We can’t stoop down to the Democrats level…W is a great guy…and has been a great President…and he has treated Obama with such respect…way more than he was ever given by Clinton and his team. W has had a long 8 years behind him…9/11, war to follow, Katrina, the economic crisis and all the while having the liberal illuminati pointing their fingers at him and the MSM saying he is guilty and to blame for it all of it! It’s BS! And I wonder if they will do the same for Obama after practically campaigning for him for the last 2 years!

Or will he hold strong to ideological rigidity?

Given everything we know of his background and record (no thanks to the media), I suspect he’ll try to do this. Plus, the congressional Democratic leadership and the Far Left (but I repeat myself) will try to push him this way, though there’s already some signs that a few among the leadership are trying to lower expectations — good luck dealing with your “base” over that, guys.

The pledge not to treat Obama the way the Democrats, media, and further Left treated Bush over the last eight years is a good one, and I made the same one on my blog. Let’s show the adolescents now in charge that it’s possible to be in opposition without acting like children in need of a time-out.

Put me down for the first and second definitions. Given the executive orders he's targeting (H/T - Ed), Obama will hold to leftist ideological rigidity.

Okay savor the melancholy … for today.

Then shake it off and get moving.

There is a lot of work to do by 2012, especially for those of us who need the “Lipstick Lady” to succeed.
