Confident in an Election Day win, the campaign looks to lower supporters’ expectations on concerns their hopes of ‘change’ are unrealistic, a senior aide says.

Barack Obama’s senior advisers have drawn up plans to lower expectations for his presidency if he wins next week’s election, amid concerns that many of his euphoric supporters are harboring unrealistic hopes of what he can achieve.

The sudden financial crisis and the prospect of a deep and painful recession have increased the urgency inside the Obama team to bring people down to earth, after a campaign in which his soaring rhetoric and promises of “hope” and “change” are now confronted with the reality of a stricken economy.

One senior adviser told The Times that the first few weeks of the transition, immediately after the election, were critical, “so there’s not a vast mood swing from exhilaration and euphoria to despair.”

The aide said that Obama himself was the first to realize that expectations risked being inflated.

In an interview with a Colorado radio station, Obama appeared to be engaged already in expectation lowering. Asked about his goals for the first hundred days, he said he would need more time to tackle such big and costly issues as health care reform, global warming and Iraq.

“The first hundred days is going to be important, but it’s probably going to be the first thousand days that makes the difference,” he said. He has also been reminding crowds in recent days how “hard” it will be to achieve his goals, and that it will take time.

“I won’t stand here and pretend that any of this will be easy — especially now,” Obama told a rally in Sarasota, Florida, yesterday, citing “the cost of this economic crisis, and the cost of the war in Iraq.” Obama’s transition team is headed by John Podesta, a Washington veteran and a former chief-of-staff to Bill Clinton. He has spent months overseeing a virtual Democratic government-in-exile to plan a smooth transition should Obama emerge victorious next week.

The plans are so far advanced that an Obama Cabinet has been largely decided upon, with the expectation that most of his senior appointments could be announced shortly after election day.

Not sure if this has any practical use online but is fun so check it out.

Taking God Out Of One Public School Classroom

How much freedom should a public school teacher have to express his or her religious beliefs on his or her classroom walls? That question is being hotly debated in one San Diego-area classroom where administrators ordered one veteran teacher to remove materials from his classroom walls that refer to the Deity:

ANN ARBOR, MI – The Thomas More Law Center, a national public interest law firm based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, announced today that it has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the Poway Unified School District, located in San Diego, California. The lawsuit was brought on behalf of Brad Johnson, a respected teacher who has been teaching in the school district for 30 years. The lawsuit claims that school officials violated Johnson’s constitutional rights by ordering him to remove several educational banners from his classroom walls because, according to these officials, the banners promote a “Judeo-Christian” viewpoint.

The banners, which Johnson had displayed in his classroom without complaint for nearly 25 years, contained the following phrases: “In God We Trust,” the official motto of the United States; “One Nation Under God,” the 1954 amendment to the Pledge of Allegiance; “God Bless America,” a patriotic song considered to be the unofficial national anthem of the United States; “God Shed His Grace On Thee,” a line from “America the Beautiful,” a popular patriotic song; and “All Men Are Created Equal, They Are Endowed By Their Creator,” an excerpt from the preamble to the Declaration of Independence. School officials objected to the banners because they included the words “God” and “Creator.”

Richard Thompson, President and Chief Counsel for the Law Center, commented, “Cleansing our Nation’s classrooms of our religious heritage and history and imposing viewpoint restrictions on speech to silence such expressions advance no legitimate educational purpose. In fact, such actions undermine the primary purpose of public education: to prepare students for citizenship in our Republic.”

The lawsuit alleges that the school district violated Johnson’s constitutional rights by imposing a viewpoint-based restriction on his speech. It further alleges that this restriction “serves no valid educational purpose, is not reasonably related to any legitimate pedagogical concern, and conveys a government-sponsored message of disapproval of and hostility toward religion” in violation of the United States and California Constitutions.

Robert Muise, the Law Center attorney handling the case, commented, “It is without question that religious people founded this Nation. As a result, references to God are common in our songs, mottoes, and slogans. And it is the responsibility of our Nation’s public schools to educate students to be informed citizens. Consequently, it is the responsibility of all public school teachers, including Mr. Johnson, to educate students regarding our Nation’s history and its founding. Mr. Johnson’s educational banners serve that purpose.”

The lawsuit seeks to have the speech restriction overturned so that Johnson can continue to display his banners, as he had been for 25 years.

“Without God, there is no virtue, because there’s no prompting of
the conscience. Without God, we’re mired in the material, that
flat world that tells us only what the senses perceive. Without
God, there is a coarsening of the society. And without God,
democracy will not and cannot long endure. If we ever forget that
we’re one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.”

– Ronald Reagan

“May that Being who is supreme over all, the
Patron of Order, the Fountain of Justice, and the
Protector in all ages of the world of virtuous
liberty, continue His blessings upon this nation.”

Jimmie Doolittle once said “there is nothing stronger then a volunteer”. He said this while on board the USS Hornet in March of 1942 sailing toward Japan for the first air strike after Pearl Harbor.

Our flag was paid for by the blood of Americans. NOT by the liberals. Not by illegal aliens. It was American Marines who planted the flag at Iowa Jima.

Merriam-Webster’s definition of surrender:

a: To yield to the power, control, or possession of another upon compulsion or demand
b: to give up completely or agree to forgo especially in favor of another.

We encourage all of you to watch this. We got this link from the word press site and we really love it. Ignore the theme and see the light through the trees and see the real message in it.

It was once said that “you are in control, until or unless, you give up that control”.

America, stay the course, hold the line, stay with her, fight for her, defend her against all enemies foreign “and” domestic. Fight to preserve what she was founded upon. America is crying out for us to save her. We have a “CHOICE”. If we choose wisely then America can be saved from the disease of liberalism that destroyed Ancient Rome. No that is not an opinion. It is historical fact. Don’t believe it. We don’t care. Do your homework. We did and still do.

WE WILL NEVER GIVE IN, WE WILL NEVER SURRENDER.
