Unity and Support?

Democrats are now telling me that I should support the next president.  Democrats are telling me that I should put past differences aside.  Democrats are saying I should respect him and embrace him.  Democrats are telling Republicans that the country now needs to united around Barack Obama.  This after the Democrats:

Called the president a warmonger when they disagreed with them.

Called the president a war criminal when they disagreed with him.

Called the president a racist when they disagreed with him.

Called the president mentally challenged when they disagreed with him.

Called the president an idiot and/or stupid when they disagreed with him.

Said the president only cared about the rich when they disagreed with him.

Said the president "wasn't their president" when they disagreed with him.

Called Condi Rice and Colin Powell "Uncle Tom's" for serving with the president.

And now the Democrats want me to suddenly support Obama and be respectful?

I will, and already do, support Obama.  I did the instant he was elected.  He is now my president.  I will honor his authority and disagree with him respectfully.  I hope the country is united and does support Barack Obama.  But not because the Democrats are telling me to. Because I am not a partisan.  Because I am an American.  Because I do not want to stoop to the same low level the Democrats did.
