Obama: Call on us to help. Call soon and call often
An open letter to President elect Barack Obama:
Sir,
I call on you to call on us – as soon as possible and often. We are here. We are eager. One of the reasons, maybe the prime reason, we elected you is because we want to be called on. We want to be better. We know that you can’t do it alone. We have united behind you because we believe that you can unite us. That you will call on us.
After 9/11 all we were called upon to do was shop. And look where that got us.
We don’t need specifics – but we need to hear that you will fulfill this part of the promise, that we can begin to get ready for another magnificent American effort. The kind not accomplished by politicians working in Washington, but our leaders and the people working together.
Otherwise the moment will be lost. Again.

Oh Corinne, he’ll be calling soon enough. And like the true sheep you are, be sure and have your checkbook handy. Like a televangelist, the Messiah can do nothing without your “Support”.
Written like a loyal Comrade of the Marxist/Communist party…Hail Obama! Hail Obama! The anointed one has risen and I shall follow. Oh mighty Obama…hear my prayers.
Give me a break lady - the election is over and you can stop drinking the kool-aid.
“That one” is now officially the “chosen one”. The nation, with a loud and clear voice chose Barack Obama to be President of the United States. All true American’s will support our president and wish him the best.
Corinne McAfee, how pathetic are you that you cant do a damn thing until the government tells you too?
” We want to be better.”
Why do you suddenly want to be better now? Why not for the past 8 or 16 or 20 or 50 years? And why can only “The Chosen One” make you better.
“We know that you can’t do it alone.”
But you can start! You DONT have to stand around like a damn sheep waiting to be herded around.
“We have united behind you because we believe that you can unite us.”
HOW?
“That you will call on us.”
You better stay home by the phone, wouldnt want you to miss that call.
“We don’t need specifics ”
GOOD, because He hasnt gotten any specifics.
“that we can begin to get ready for another magnificent American effort.”
Again, what kept you from it till now?
United behind him??? Hardly. Almost half the country voted against him.
Asked to shop after 9/11?? No, you were asked to come together in a patriotic effort to fight Islamic terrorist. Instead, you bashed Bush and the military 24/7, and, like obama, Reid and Peelosi, would like nothing better than see the U.S. defeated in the mideast. It’s sad to think that people like Corinne can vote.

If you’re making a comparison to the sacrifice during World War II, I lived through that and I can tell you with absolute certainty that you could have already duplicated civilian contributions any time you felt like it. Smash cans and recycle them for the war effort. Plant Victory Gardens. Put your car up on blocks and buy no gas or tires. Meatless Tuesday still works and saves money too. Ration books are available at reasonable prices from collectors if you’re not too picky about missing coupons.
That is sarcasm madam. To act like an inconvenience is a sacrifice falls under the Maximum Wuss category. My family as hundreds of thousands of others actually sacrificed in World War II, a first cousin died face down in the mud and my older brother was seriously wounded on Pacific Islands.
I own no weapons but I’m sorely tempted to acquire them and provide relief for the patriots that feel a compulsion to “sacrifice.”
Glad my number is unlisted.
Yes Barack, give us a call. Let us know how we can help with your nationwide search for your birth certificate. This reminds me of the time where OJ was searching the golf courses for Nicole’s killer.
Obama: “La la la la.. I’m president elect… La la la.. I AM a natural born citizen. I am A NATural born citizen… Rham, which sounds more convincing? Do I need a pause? OK. I, uh, am a natural BORN citizen”
I got to tell you guys. Corinne wrote one of the most amusing letters I have ever read. First I read the letter and then the comments. I’m still laughing. I’m trying to figure out where this woman and people like her were when 9-11 hit. If the people were truly behind the president then the war could have been over much sooner. If I remember correctly Obama wasnt for the war. Intersting.
More than that I love the part that “The kind not accomplished by politicians working in Washington.” Was I wrong in noticing that its the same politiicans that have always been there? I’m sure glad things are different! I must say that liberals truly are amazing.
Si,
Listen to you and all your DAMNS, pretty perturbed there, are you? Having a difficult time accepting Barack Obama will be President Obama come January? By the way, have empathy for those who you think are sheep because weren’t you guys the blind sheep for so long?
By the way, when did that change? I have noticed that most of you die heart Republican pundits are now running away from the Bush/Cheney regime instead of defending it as you ones had become so infamous for doing.
