    i'm not going to get all into this thread b/c everyone wants to toot their own horn...

    last two elections i said NO to bush; many on this board elected and debated round and round for him... we are worse off now b/c of him like it or not. mccain would of been a better choice then bush if he was given the chance. unfortunately for rep supporters after 8 years of rep white house and rep majority during most of the administration your party is now in need of a severe overhaul. clinging to age old ideals have lost your party not only the presidency but the senate and possibly a couple justices.

    majority of US has spoken and Obama is the president for the next 4 years. after that time you can make a decision on what he has done right/wrong.

    my opinion is not based on race.. by any means. plus obama is a melting pot of races.. which allows him to reach more people. however, i do not feel he has the experience to do the job as well as mccain could have. also, as stated above, there are several other issues he supports that i am strongly against. i mean even his running mate had some hesitations with the way obama will be able to deal with situations.

    we don't have any other choice but to give him a chance so i just hope and pray that he will be able to get through the challenges that come with running this country.

    That is valid and cannot be argued, only time will tell.

    You don't have time to debate but you sure found time to reply with a half assed message though, didn't you?

    She has a point Bobby, just like there was a thread made for those who are happy with the results. People here want/need to vent.. let them do so. Nothing that will be said here will change their views immediately.. just give it time.

    I concur with you. And honestly, arguing about politics on the internet/at work/ with anyone for that matter is pointless. Its a waste of energy id rather spend elsewhere.

    You're a complete idiot.

    I agree with change throughout our nation, but let me ask you, why did YOU vote for him? What policies made YOU decide to vote for him?

    Telling the people that do not support Obama to leave the country...wow...the balls you have.

    It would have, you're right.

    At the end of the day, the results were bound to piss people off, regardless of who won.

    I just think it's funny how race was so big in this election. I am in no way for McCain or Obama. I also think it's funny how black people think that having a black president is going to benefit them somehow.


    I've already gotten a few text messages today from a some of my black friend gloating about it. Good times

    You're going to have your ignorant people who are going to think like that and they are in for a rude awakening. A Black president is historically significant and that's where importance of his race should end.

    I agree. Completely. And moreso because this man fought real adversity in his lifetime, unlike most young Black ppl of our generation.

    However, this is by no means a sign that racism no longer exists.

    8 out of 10 ppl who voted for obama have no clue what his policies are. and that is not a number i just made up in my room, its the ppl i have talked to that are voting for him. the only thing i hear is "he will change things" and other non sense. obama won because his campaign was well directed at the dumb sheep that are easily guided without having to get any real information. I think you should have to pass some kind of test to vote, not just sign up. Dumb bitches should not have a say so in a political election, much less the presidency. I dont feel like Obama won because more ppl liked his platform and policies, he won because his voters are fucking retarted. I have respect for ppl that actually know Obama's policies and voted for him, everyone is entitled to their opinion; but if you dont have any reason for your opinion; then it shouldnt matter to anyone but you (meaning your retarted ass shouldnt be allowed to vote).

    As long as we have people of other cultures/color/religion there will always be racism.

    I totally agree. Most people now days would rather sit around and bitch about how life sucks and they can't do anything about it than get out there and make it happen for themselves.

    One thing people don't understand is how good it is in this country. This is pretty much the only country that you can come from nothing and aspire to be something great. If don't believe it go live in another country for a while. Even in another first world country you will find that whatever social class you were born in 90% of the time you will be in your whole life.

    This is a 100% true story. Stay with me, because this is going be a long but good story.


    This morning, when I got to the shop, there was a lady parked all sideways with a stream of antifreeze coming from beneath her car. I parked and walked over. She asked me if I could show her where her oil went. Of course I said I would not only show her, but do it for her. As I'm checking over her car, she explains that her car just started running badly and died, so coasted into the lot (which explained her parking prowess ). Fine. I check her oil, and it's a quart low. Put the oil in for her and show her where it goes for future reference. Upon further talking, she tried to put antifreeze in herself and spilled it, hence the streat of antifreeze. Fine. When we try to start her car, it won't. Probably due to ignition issues. We offer that she leave her car there and we diagnose/fix the problem AND (after further talking we found out she was on the way to school with her daughter where she is a TEACHER) we would take her to where she was going since she didn't have a ride. She came inside and started giving me all her contact info for the work order. Fine, right? Well, when I informed her of the diagnostic FEE and the procedure that if she got the repairs done we would waive the diagnostic fee and if not she would only owe that fee.......she gave me this blank stare. She then tells me she doesn't have $77 (diagnostic fee). I guess she thought we'd diagnose, fix, and deliver her car for FREE?????.....

    Anyway, she calls her husband and he wants to come here to "look at it" and tow it away......last I checked towing costs more than $77, but whatever. Fine.

    She then proceeds to ask if we could STILL take her to work...... I decided to go ahead and do it as the right thing to do, eventhough she's basically just told us to F@#k off AFTER we helped her. Whatever. I crank up the car and take her and her daughter the 6 or so miles to HER work and HER daughter's school. Here is where the story applies to this thread:

    During that car ride, I'm making small talk with her and her daughter asking about school and what grade she's in....etc. She then asked me, "what do you think about the election?"........ So I proceeded to tell her that "it is, what it is...." To which she looked at me like I'd just cussed her mother out and said, "so you voted for Mccain????". Ummm, yes, I did as a matter of fact. She then proceeded to rattle off, almost verbatim, that we are "spending 10 billion dollars a month in Iraq when they have plenty of money and people here are losing their homes...." So I turned the tables and asked HER, why SHE voted for Obama. She REPEATED the same propaganda infomercial about the 10 billion dollars and actually used the words "we need CHANGE". She tried to turn the tables on me and asked me why I voted for Mccain, to which I rattled off several different reasons from Foreign Policy to Tax policy to stepping across party lines to experience. Yall know what she had to say???? "Well, I just think we need some CHANGE...." You're kidding me, right? THIS is not only someone that TEACHES young children as an authority figure, she's also a mother, AND voted for Obama????

    Yall want to know why Obama won???? It is because there are millions of people just like this lady who have no clue the who, what, and where as to why they voted how they did. I'm not saying that all Obama supporters are like this, especially since we've had some incredibly intelligent discussions in here between both sides. What I am saying is that this morning's situation is a drop in the bucket of how a well designed marketing scheme combined with a biased media then fed to uninformed masses can indeed get you into the White House. Am I bitter? Heck no. It is, what it is. He won, so he's my new President. No big deal. It is, what it is. I'm not bitter at all in all truthfulness.

    Moral of this story is that in my eyes this lady represented someone that could serve as the poster child for so many Obama supporters.......

    A lot of bitter people.
    All that bitterness and whining is changing things.
    Oh wait, it isn't.

    I didn't really care for either candidate, but I am kind of happy Obama won. No one has the right to pull the race card anymore. You're not suppressed. You can be anything you want to be (including president), but you have to work for it. No one is going to give it to you, nor do you automatically deserve it. The End! Lets move on now. I don't want to hear what my ancestors did to your ancestors anymore. It wasn't me, and it wasn't you. No one is to blame for your situation but yourself. No one is going to change your life for you, you have to do it. It's a "NEW DAY".
