FORWARD! Let's hope that our Republican friends work with the President to find solutions to the many problems we face and move away from being the party of "no"
WashU thanks for spelling out HUSSEIN, I missed that. 4 more years of the "kenyan born", "muslim" president.
I hope they say no at every opportunity. But it won't matter. Anything he wants will just be done by executive order. We can pack up the Constitution and put it away. It's just a bunch of old-fashioned, meaningless words.
Who ya gonna blame when it all comes crashing down? The ******* spending and wasting and taking has to stop and I fear the first four years were just a warm up.
I watch the elated celebrants on the TV screen, but it's really hard to get excited with the prospects of gridlock in government for the next two years for sure and maybe well beyond. I really expected Romney to win and I had some optimism about the executive branch serving as a moderating influence on a party dominated by right wing wackos. I'm hopeful that the lessons of Missouri and Indiana sink in. If you find a candidate who lives the GOP platform, he's way too conservative to win a state with a moderately strong Democratic party. Nutball right wingers like Rick Perry can win in Texas, Oklahoma or Alabama, but they aren't going to have much shelf life anywhere else.
I forgot about the blame game - BO has just inherited a terrible economy from- well - himself. I don't think he can blame Bush anymore, but I'm sure he will continue to do so.
America has spoken, my friend. America has spoken and it wants 4 more years of prudence and effort to get this country on the right track... after 8 years of fisting from your GOP. Obama is what America wants. Our founding fathers and our constitution brought us this democracy and this democracy wants (and quite frankly, needs) BHO. Sleep well, Bat. This nation of ours is in good hands. read the IMF report on our economic outlook over the next 4 years if you can't sleep. Take care.
Let them whine. Let them be cry babies. They always put party above country. I expect secession threats any second now.
Obama is not what America wants. Obama is what some people in certain counties in a few states wants. Big, big difference.
I will sleep well. I may also pull all of my money out of the stock market and have fun with it. No need to save it, because I will be taken care of if it runs out. Hey, I think I like BO! I had no idea what I was missing!
redhead, I don't think so. See, we have this thing called an election and the winner is the person wanted by most Americans in most States.
We now get four more years of rising unemployment, a stagnant economy, $20 trillion in debt, diminished personal freedom, and "big brother" government. Yes, that's what America needs.
Romney and Obama can both eat it. Nearly half of America does not want Obama, that much is clear. Just another four years. Hopefully things dont get worse. Im not optimistic.
Hopefully Obama can get a handle on the big task ahead of him. Nearly half of the country didn't vote for him like the Gore/W Bush election. The vitriol is going to likely be high. I expect a lot of executive orders.
Washu, (by the way, it is behead, not redhead I see you are now posting a more correctly worded statment "what MOST Americans want". By adding the "most" you are almost there, but look at all the red states, v the bell curve of blue, and then act like all of America wants either candidate. Almost 50% wanted one guy, a little over 50% the other. Neither number says that All of America wants one candidate in this thing you call an election. Yeah, heard of them....be a gracious winner and a gracious loser. That's what I was taught.
I am happy Obama won. He's my choice. I'm more aligned with him on social issues but I'm concerned about the direction of government. I want the role of govt. to shrink and I want Obama to move more to the center on this issue. Romney was a great alternative. If he ran just on economic issues and keeping government small, I'd have voted for him without hesitation. But the social conservatives and the overzealous religious base kept me away.
You, you are terribly naive if you think BO has any idea of shrinking the government. But time will tell. Until then party, party - there are no consequences to screwing the economy! I can't wait to get my free ****!!
I wasn't enthralled with either candidate, but i was kind of intrigued by the possibility of Big Love in the White House with a first lady, a second lady and maybe even a third lady.
The country is f...in' doomed... More gridlock in Washington More class warfare All of you - your taxes are going up, way up in various ways More & more Fed Gov managing your healthcare - costs go up / quality goes down More Americans not working and taking gov cheese in some way $15 trillion in debt and climbing A financial cliff awaits us - if we don't fix it soon we will be Greece Let's keep whistling past the graveyard....
