While it’s no secret I disagree with most of President Obama’s policy initiatives, I need to say one thing on this historic day.

Today is a great day for our country.  While we haven’t solved our issues with race, by electing Mr. Obama as President we have moved one step closer.  Despite policy differences, all reasonable Americans should be able, especially today, to say congratulations to President Obama.  He has smashed that glass ceiling for African-Americans, and that is something to be proud of.

With that in mind, I will make the same pledge to Obama as to do to all public officials:  I will support you when you choose to do things which decreases the size, scope and power of government, and I will oppose you when you choose to increase the size, scope and power of government at any level for any purpose.

Let the first 100 days begin.
