I feel sorry for that man. I feel sorry for half the country. I don't feel sorry for the half that voted him in, they'll get what they voted for - even if they don't know it yet.

Focus on preparing for the coming economic collapse. BooHoo if you are good with camp stove cooking, feel free to hide out here.

For some reason, this presidential race hurt worse than any other in my lifetime. Romney is a good man. He ran as good a race as he could under the circumstances. With the other side pouring money into negative advertising back in May and June, they were able to define Romney. The money that can be spent is going to change politics as we know it. Campaign finance needs to be reformed if we are to ever to right the ship. I say, if you can't vote for him, you can't contribute.

[Captain Obvious]

Welcome, Phineas - glad you're here.

Oh my god, it's been five days since Obama won re-election and the world has not yet come to an end! Maybe you'll live after all. :rollseyes:

[Mainecoons]

Kiddo, you ain't seen nothing yet. You are about to get what you asked for. Small business is going on strike and they are the main job creators.

You are a well meaning but seriously misguided person. I hope you do stick around as this enfolds, it will be interesting to watch how you handle the reality of a crashing economy as a direct result of the votes of you and other emotion-driven females.

[Peter1469]

Oh my god, it's been five days since Obama won re-election and the world has not yet come to an end! Maybe you'll live after all. :rollseyes:

When not in campaign mode, Obama is essentially a lazy person. He isn't going to do much except try to hide the scandals of his first administration. However, events may overtake him. As the Eurozone crashes, if US banks hold as much Euro debt as I think they do, our economy will sink and perhaps the USD will collapse. Don't expect Obama to have a clue.

[truthmatters]

the top tax rate on the wealthy was 80% or HIGHER from the years 1940 until 1970.

virtue is gone and we now have more takers then producers. You won't figure it out, until it actually happens though b/c your a communist and think voting for your stuff is actually the right thing to do. Your just as doomed as the rest of us, even more so b/c you already can't provide for yourself, so when it hits you will be the 1st to scream and moan

Well you know what Karl said... Obama stole the election, cause he had minorities vote for him. Now there's theft for ya!

[IMPress Polly]

I promise you I did nothing of the sort and find the implication that I did extremely offensive!

But like I said on the other thread, those links don't present anything close to a real case. All you've got are some minor alleged irregularities that happen every election cycle on both sides of the aisle spontaneously that you're imagining are part of grand conspiracy. Come back when you've got something resembling hard evidence of that.

[GrassrootsConservative]

Well you know what Karl said... Obama stole the election, cause he had minorities vote for him. Now there's theft for ya!

Obama cheating is not something to joke about. What if your black panthers had killed someone at the polls while they were intimidating voters?
Bet you wouldn't be joking then, Commie.

[Mainecoons]

Ballot fraud by Democrats is a reality and is good for maybe a percent of the vote. They can and do use it to win the really close ones like the Frankel race.

But this election was really stolen by demagoguery and stupidity in that order. The Obama campaign created the "war on women" fiction, hung it around the neck of a moderate who showed no inclination to engage in it whatsoever, and sold it to a bunch of emotional women. They demagoged class warfare, they demagogued race and they won.

They have won nothing and what the Republicans need to do now is give them absolutely everything they want until they hang themselves with it. Small business is going on strike and the economy is going down the crapper. Obama can't print and borrow his way out of this though he's obviously going to try.

Watch and learn, folks. You are living in one of those big turning points in history. You are about to watch the "new demographic" and the rest of the country learn that the "old, white and finished" folks hold the purse strings and they are going to snap them shut.

May as well get it over with.

[IMPress Polly]

GET OVER IT YOU SORRY, PATHETIC LOSERS!!!!!!

I'm sorry if I seem very frustrated, but goddamnit this is PITIFUL! You are just the sorriest bunch of losers I've ever seen. What are you all 8 years old. GROW THE FUCK UP BABIES!!!!! If you actually won and this was indeed all part of some grand conspiracy by the Obama White House then at least the exit poll data would probably contradict the outcome. But it didn't, did it? No, the exit polls also showed Obama with a convincing lead. What does that tell you? That you're probably right?

You've got nothing. Accept it! Grow up! Quit acting like stubborn little crybabies! Get lives! You just can't ever admit being wrong about anything, can you?

[Conley]

Yeah, this election wasn't close. The kind of fraud it would take for Obama to have "stolen" this election simply isn't possible across that many swing states. Romney got crushed and it wasn't a surprise.

[Mainecoons]

We have the jobs, Polly. That will become apparent very quickly, indeed the mass layoffs have already started.

Enjoy your victory, you all can slap each other on the back in the unemployment line. :grin:

America was founded as a politically right nation. We believe in freedom, and that's what the right is about.

America was founded on the idea that the government wouldn't control our lives. That's how it's always been until Democrats started screwin shit up and taking away our freedoms. In America it should be rightists way or the high way, because fuck Communism.

First, no one wants any government to control their lives. But most reasonable people accept that government is a part of their lives. It's a fact of life. Then there's those, like you, who live everyday with the fear that somehow they're being controlled. If you're not breaking the law, if you're not abusing the rights or taking advantage of others, you really shouldn't have any real problems. Then there are those that think that some socialist policies (medicare and social security) are acceptable, but others, like Obamacare, have suddenly moved us forward to a totally socialist country.

I keep hearing about the rights that you "freedom-lovers" are losing, but no one seems to be able to say exactly what those freedoms are. So i'll ask you: What freedoms have the evil Dems taken from you patriotic, hard-working, tax-paying Americans?

"The right's way or the highway", huh... How about we pass Obama's jobs bill and get those highways (and bridges, etc.) updated, first.

First of all, I'm going to address the last part of your post. For some reason, you think that the president who hasn't created a single job in the last 4 years is going to create one or (even more absurdly) more than one job in the next four years. Albert Einstein said insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. That's NEVER going to happen. Obama will not create a single job in the next four years. Don't you ever try to push that shit on me again.

Second of all, I'm a single male without children. "Obamacare" will make me help cover pediatric services. This also impends upon the freedoms of women who can't have children, because they have to help cover maternity services.

I can keep going, but I've already proved you wrong.

[Mainecoons]

I'll tell ya what, Blad. If you can't figure out how the TSA and Homeland "Security" has cost you freedom, we're not going to be able to explain it to you. If you can't figure out that a government that is borrowing 40 cents of every dollar, printing $40 billion per month to buy paper and consuming in excess of 40 percent of the national output isn't compromising your economic freedom, we can't explain that one to you either.

You'll just have to remain liberal and ignorant. :grin:

The implementation of the "Patriot Act" (Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism) has the capability to infringe on a person's rights as an American, but that's as a result of the 9/11 attacks (so they say); GR was suggesting that it was the Dems and the libs who have been stealing our rights. So far, neither you nor he has been able to supply anything.

From what i've read and heard, the government isn't expected to create private sector jobs. That's the job of the private sector. And jobs are created by increasing consumer demand. Demand will only increase as disposable income increases.

"'Obamacare' will make me help cover pediatric services."... Whaaaaa! Whaaaaaaaaaa! Right now your government makes you pay out the wazoo for military weapons you'll never see, hear, touch or even know about, but that's ok with you. Stop being so specifically anti-Obama and start accepting the fact that you live in a country where no one has a choice as to where their taxes go. You don't want to pay for pediatric care. Fine. I don't like to pay for 2 f*ckin' invasions. It's just the way things are. If you can't accept the bad with the good, maybe you don't belong here. Maybe you should move to Utopia.

[Conley]

Well said Blad. We all have to pay for stuff we don't use. My prop taxes are through the wazoo and pay for the schools around here, but I'm not a student there and I don't have kids so...one thing I do know is that I'd rather have my $$$ paying for American kids to learn and not for say, destroying and then rebuilding Iraq. Unfortunately we dont really get to choose

Just because it happens all the time doesn't mean it's not a big deal. You're right, Bush impeded my freedoms too. I bitched about it then as well.

I stand by my case, you asked for an example of what freedoms of my are being trampled upon, and I gave it to you. I'm sorry, you have no more room to say anything except admit you were wrong and apologize.

[coolwalker]

Within 72 hours from election eve, 75 businesses either closed doors, or announced layoffs. People who can add and subtract know what is coming. The cost is going to be staggering. Most restaurants will be giving employees 29 hours per week to keep from the magic number of 30, which is considered full-time. Insurance companies are getting ready for hikes in January...the next time DC prints more money will be the day our dollar goes to -AA3...the death knell economically.

[Mainecoons]

The difference, Blad, is that I understand clearly that both of these parties have been chipping away at freedom in America. I noticed you ignored Mr. Obama's attack on economic freedom with 68 regulations per day, wholesale borrowing and money printing.

But then I'm not the partisan hack you are. :grin:

[LiarSOB]

I feel sorry for that man. I feel sorry for half the country. I don't feel sorry for the half that voted him in, they'll get what they voted for - even if they don't know it yet.
