I can't help but laugh at the response of obamamaniacs. So smug, so condescending, so IN LOVE WITH AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!! and excessively using exclamation points.
Hey, I'm in no way a McCain supporter (he would have been just as bad!), my vote went to Ron Paul, the only guy who would truly follow the constitution, stop policing the world, get rid of the IRS, and stimulate true capitalism.
And the notion that somehow we've "turned a corner" because a minority was elected president only further splits the nation in two. Because now, if you didn't vote for Obama, you're somehow racist. Which leads me to wonder…
I'm all for having a black man in the white house or any other race, heck, I have no problem with a female president as long as they earned it. And my kudos to Obama, he did earn what he's got – he didn't take the (very racist) affirmative action route. So I congratulate him sincerely for earning the white house.
But do we have to bring race into EVERYTHING?
He's a man, not a color! Goodness. I don't go around parading on behalf of blondes. Yeah, true, Paris and Britney have that covered, but I demand to know, WHERE ARE THE MALE BLONDES REPRESENTED IN SOCIETY?
It's deeper than that, I know, but it seems like the people who preach "see no color" are the ones who see it the most. I can honestly say I've been all around the world, in slums and in palaces, and I don't care what your race or gender or beliefs, really, as long as you're being productive to the stimulation of life and not taking from those who ARE productive (which is the M.O. of socialism and stated plan of Obama).
It's just funny to me how emotional voters are emotional winners without knowing why they're happy. The world is overjoyed!
Why?
They don't know.
Something along the lines of:
1. He's not from Bush's party
2. He's a minority
3. He's a rockstar brain type, a la Bill Clinton and an amazing speaker! Ooh, swoon!
4. His change consists of socialist ideals, which most of the world embraces, and those evil mavericks on the right oppose (therefore, he must be good!)
5. He's not from Bush's party
Obama will bring change, all right, but it's not change that any freedom-loving individualist wants to see or have any part of.
But those who want "something for nothing", who don't want to have to work or earn anything, who want to steal from the rich and give to the lazy, well guess what.
You've got your Robin Hood.
Don't say we didn't warn you.
And with that, I'm done talking politics. Enjoy the next 4 years.
2012 will end with a big bang anyway…
