I Figured It Out

Maybe I'm slow, but this morning in that dreamy state between sleep and waking, I had a epiphany: I realized why Obama won, besides the weak showing by the GOP, Libertarian Party, and everyone else.

First, a few background quotes:

"Great nations rise and fall-the people go from bondage to spiritual faith, from spiritual faith to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependency, from dependency back again into bondage." Robert Muntzel

"We are torn by internal dissension. Each one denounces special privilege and government largesse-for the other fellow. But when it touches his own interest, he rationalizes his special privilege as being 'for the public welfare.'" Admiral Ben Moreel

"When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic" Benjamin Franklin (maybe)

So, people have gotten lazy, greedy and selfish. They no longer value freedom over money and leisure. They ignore our history, and reject God. Because of this, they vote for the guy who promises them what they want, money for nothing. Thus our country has been taken over by the uneducated, godless and selfish. If this continues, we are doomed.
