WANT

first I want you to remember that all men are equal. I want you to do your job.I really think you are overlooking a lot of things. If we are having boob threats in New York on 495 and lincoln tunnel. You are not doing your job. That again says the people are not safe. How good are you protecting? I want this day to be a good day January 20/2009. And I want the world to feel safe and able to rejoice in victory.

Smooth Transition Vital

It is a comfort to know there are people willing to stay on and serve to help with a smooth transition of power. In so many parts of the world, new leaders have to assume authority in the midst of chaos. This is what makes the U.S. different. I hope it goes well.

We need Guards by the Shredders before the Inauguration

Before Inauguration Day we need to get some agents in the White House to prevent the destruction of evidence, to patrol the shredders, and to clamp down on those email servers that have been developing gaps. The next president needs to invigorate the Justice Dept, provide some transparency to the executive branch, and dump all the Bush documents to the natl archives ASAP.

Nothing newsworthy about this

Every incoming administration is by necessity always transitioned whether or not there is a war in progress.

This country has a history of being involved in some sort of war for every generation.

This country has more experience at this than any other in modern history--perhaps any history.
