Re: ***Election Day 2012: The Day Of Decision***

Although, I still don't know how they called Ohio yet. Romney is a tad bit ahead at this moment.

Newt is brilliant but divisive and dismissive. I think it is delusional to think he would of had broad appeal. He appeals to us conservatives but not to enough people to win an election.

Re: ***Election Day 2012: The Day Of Decision***

Romney was the worse candidate for the Repubs. Anyone else would have been better as far as Im concerned.

Their mantra was:

STAY FOCUSED ON THE ECONOMY! ITS ALL ABOUT THE ECONOMY!

Satan liked that. Make it all about money. Dont dare speak on social issues.

Why do we need a military? Don't you know that all Muslims are peace loving? There is no such thing as terrorism so we don't need a war on terror.

When there is violence it is all the United States fault in some way and we should just apologize for whatever we did and promise to never do it again.

I am sure the Muslim world and those in Palestine are dancing in the streets that their man got reelected.

Oh, and now we will get to find out what exactly Obama meant when he said to tell Putin he would "have more flexibility" after the election.

That's a bunch of malarkey. It was WHO the GOP wanted to focus all of their attention on. You could see that playing out in the media, guided by Brit Hume. Plain as the nose on your face. Newt proved what the people wanted in SC. The GOP surrounded Romney and took Newt down. You know as well as I do that they can talk up Tom, Dick or Harry, and one of them would win. That's the game. Some of us aren't playing anymore. They can lose until the cows come home. We took our toys and went home.

Since we're in the mood for sarcasm.

I couldn't have gone the next four years of my life without knowing exactly what wonderful things Obama has in store for Putin. Such a great guy that Putin is... I'm oozing with anticipation.

Well regardless of who's fault it is America has gone down the political toilet. Our society will now become Obama's liberal global climate change population control, UN approved, disarmed and endangered, liberal utopia. Fun fun fun for everyone!

Or Libya.
Or the homo-sexual agenda being pushed on five year olds in public schools.
Or public schools falling apart for that matter.
Or the military budget.
Or the UN and globalist intrusion on American sovereignty.
Or anything else that matters.
