Obama wins re-election

[Von Halen]

I'm struck by 3 things thus far.....

The RePukes can't win their Home States, The South continues to be racist, low information voters voting again their own interests...

And elections in this country are as bad as many Third World Countries. pathetic.

I had no passion for either of these candidates. But, I find it funny and ironic that someone would call the South "racist" and "low information" because they vote Republican. Especially when the majority of black voters are voting for Obama, because he's considered black. I would bet that at least 80% of the black voters that voted for Obama are ill informed, and every bit as "racist" as the Southerners voting Republican. I would also bet that more white voters voted for Obama, than black voters voted for Romney. I would also bet that Obama got a whole lot of votes from white people in the South.

Some of you Republican and Democrats crack me up with your party is holier than thou attitudes. I actually believe if Jerry Sandusky had won the Democratic nomination, Ford (not picking on you Ford, you are just one of the most vocal) would find a way to justify voting for him. Likewise, if Jerry Sandusky had won the Republican nomination, I think BigBadBrian would have found a way to justify voting for him. Of course, this example is an exaggeration to an extent.

It's a shame there seems to be no room for compromise. Ever. You'd think some hybrid would be able to step up and take the best of both parties, and make some progress. The right/left division is doing more harm, than good. They seem to spend more time trying to have all the answers, than they do actually coming up with solutions. Neither of these guys sold me a solution. Then again, even if they did, would their counterparts on the other side allow a solution to happen, if it went against their affiliation? Even if they knew it were the right call?

Republicans are rapidly headed for extinction because their entire platform is built around middle age whites obsessed with outdated racist/homophobic dogmas:


--- America needs to remove that Negro from the White House !!

--- America needs a huge military complex so we can kill lots of ragheads in the Middle East !!

--- America needs to spend hundreds of billions on a big wall to keep out the filthy Hispanics !!

--- America needs to treat homosexuals and lesbians like subhuman criminals !!


This ain't 1950 -- 1980 anymore.....but the Republitards can't figure that out and prefer to live inside their delusions as they go down with the ship.

[BigBadBrian]

Basically the Republicans have 3 years now to find a Republican Latino politician that is decent looking with hair but who can keep his dick in his pants for 5 minutes and has an at least post 1950s attitude to women and reproduction.

No easy ask.

US Senator Marco Antonio Rubio, Republican from Florida

I remember reading an article years ago that stated the average american wouldnt notice any difference in their day to day lives, no matter who was in the white house. Id have to agree. Ive voted democrat just as often as republican or independent....ive always made money, lived below my means and increased my wealth no matter who was in Dc or local and state govenments.

Congrats to Obama...now i can get back to loving life w/out worrying about the nonsense in politics and those GD phone calls every day reminding me to vote

[BigBadBrian]

all bluster and no substance.

Yeah, that's you alright. Read what you post, Mr Shortbus. Do you even have a high School Diploma? Doubtful.

[BigBadBrian]

I think BigBadBrian would have found a way to justify voting for him. Of course, this example is an exaggeration to an extent.

You're right about FORD but not about me.

You some good, valid points in your first paragraph above.

As for me, it's always about policy and issues. i find it troubling that a lot of Libs simply have trouble believing people can oppose Obama based on difference of policy. It's always "He/She is a racist." That argument is old and tired. I've voted for Democrats before and will do so again if I agree with them (for the most part). I probably would have voted for Hillary over McCain in 2008 had that been the matchup.

Did you know that the proper - as in graduate high school level - spelling of "Alright" is "all right?"

In the meantime, these are for you


Go cry elsewhere. Pussy.

I think China will surpass us as the next superpower. I think the US has shot it's wad. This election was just business as usual and that doesn't float a sinking ship. The west is in decline and the 21st Centruy will belong to Asia. That's where the action is going to be. The US is too divided and dysfunctional. There is no long-term vision here anymore.

China is having all kinds of problems and their domestic consumption is rising dramatically meaning the Chinese gov't is going to have to make some very painful adjustments. In China, there are nearly 100 major protests daily...

[BigBadBrian]

Republicans are rapidly headed for extinction because their entire platform is built around middle age whites obsessed with outdated racist/homophobic dogmas:

Just like they said Democrats were declining because they got their ass whooped in 2004 by losing in the House, Senate, and Presidency.

Come up with some other nitwit theory, Mr Shortbus.

The fact is that the former "Dixiecrats", whom were openly racist Democrats and white supremacists simply switched parties in the 1960's-70's...

[BigBadBrian]

In formal writing, yes. Alright is a common, accepted usage. Look it up, Grammar Queen. I'll continue to use it since it bothers you so much.

Va Beach VA Fan was right about you. You're psycho.

How many of the 57 million votes Romney got, were "Dixiecrats"?

Every Southern voter that voted for Romney is a racist Democrat or white supremacist.

[Dr. Love]

You crack me up doc! So you’ve officially switched back from being a Rand-bot to being a liberal again? No disrespect intended, I just want to know where you stand.

No inconsistency. I think Romney and Obama both are terrible for the country and the presidency.

Obama won the election. There is nothing wrong with congratulating him and hoping something positive comes out of it.

Republicans are a bunch of jackasses and Obama is a pushover. I don't want another 4 years like the last 4 years out of either party.

So I hope he stands up to them and does something to take us in a better direction, because I don't think we can take another 4 years of stagnation, obstruction and wackos killing people because they were wound up by political partisans.

There is nothing wrong with that whatever your political philosophy. Country before politics. I'd've said the same thing for Romney even though I think he is a giant turd.
