WASHINGTON (CNN)– President Obama has wasted no time handling the Bush administration’s unfinished business.

The memo halts further consideration of pending regulations throughout the government until a legal and policy review can be conducted by the Obama administration.

He handwritten prayer left by Barrack Obama in the cracks of Jerusalem’s Western Wall; Lord _ Protect my family and me. Forgive me my sins, and help me guard against pride and despair. Give me the wisdom to do what is right and just. And make me an instrument of your will. The prayer has been answer !

For the negative commentator, Bitter, angry, losers….sore losers, racists, bigots, religious zealot fools. YOU GUYS LOST IN A LANDSLIDE. WE WON YOU LOST. We had 8 years of your way, and look where the country is economically. The country spoke loud and clear, and of course being the good patriots you all profess to be, I will expect you to support our new president…or more likely remain the shallow hypocrites you always have been.

Go Eamuel! I am usually not one to hold grudges, and for the most part I am not going to hold grudges against Bush, I think he meant well, but boy am I glad we can end some of the rediculous decisions his administration made… and also very happy to see that Obama and his administration are ready to go to work so quickly!

Unfortunately, today is the hight of the Obama administration….Like almost all presidents…it’s pretty much down hill from here…I hope that is not the case…but at some point reality will set in for all of us.
