The people have spoken!

I believe the people have done the right thing. President elect Obama, a guy with a brain, has the right stuff to get the USA turned around and regain our place in the world scheme of things. But, he will need the support of every one of us. Is all well? Is it ever? After the moron in the White House along with congress have approved billions to special interests it limits the money we have to work with to rebuild. Oh well, no one ever said it would be easy. Thanks for everyone who voted on Tuesday and thanks to those who voted for Obama. Take care, BOBB

Re: The people have spoken!

I'm right behind you. As I watch the news, people say they have tears in their eyes - so do I.

I think I will quit my job and wait for my tax credit check.

Congrats Democrats!!!

Now we have elected a robot, to which the remote controller will go to the highest bidder. Not to mention the Senate is off to the dark side as well... This is gonna be a rough 4 years and I hope there is a possibility of a recovery.

Canada "used to be" worse. In January that will definitely not still be the case.

Alaska is a great idea! We go up for lunch some days and the people that live there, with maybe an exception from one persons information posted on this form, are fantastic! Great folks!

Another option would be Texas. I think the deal when Texas joined the union was that they could opt out. That should be a consideration for them because it would be a great way to get rid of the big US national debt!!

We do have a few options.

You obviously never looked at Obama's voting record to see how much money he voted for "special interests" OR how he really voted on gun issues or tax increases. BS campaign rhetoric is one thing but past voting records really tell the truth and predict the future.

Re: The people have spoken!

You people remind me of Bill O'Reilly. And seriously, republican or not, that is NOT who you want to sound like. Thats shock jock crap. Alot of Mob mentality & propaganda speech, with side line circus crap skewed beyond recognition at the core of its issues.

I personally reserve judgement on Obama. I think the movement of youth in politics is going to continue, and I hope that it can fix alot of the VERY serious problems going on internally in this country (seriously, 5% of the population holding 95% of wealth? This is a problem[I am not suggesting solutions]). That being only one. Possibly not the worst of them.

Now, I said HOPE. I really don't know if he can do it. I don't know if the direction he is going in is correct. On his own, he really wouldn't be able to really RADICALLY change things. But with the mobilization of youth, he certainly can. For better or worse. (some might think its hard to get worse).

Mcain? Seriously....big changes? I didnt see it at all.

my 2 cents

Re: The people have spoken!



cashier working at a grocery store for TWO YEARS - would you make him store manager? regional manager? CEO of the entire company?

senator working for TWO YEARS (yeah i'm sure he puts in 40hrs week, too ) - would you make him Commander-In-Chief of the US Military/President of the United States?

Alan,
I don't consider myself an idiot, and I am certain you didn't mean to call me one. I certainly would not suggest you or any other Republican that voted for McCain are an idiot. Misguided, perhaps, but not an idiot ....... I respect everyone's right to an opinion - I didn't spend 20 years in the Army defending your right to your vote and and voice your opinion .....

Harry

just as i may have been harsh assuming you an idiot, you just assumed i was a Republican and voted for McCain.
