I can't believe nobody mentioned...

...the election results. So obama won. And all I've heard the last 2 days on t.v. was coloreds saying how that now anything is possible. Great. Start by cleaning up your neighborhoods, stop shooting up the place and stop making a cottage industry out of looking for someone else to pin the blame on.

For some reason, I don't think any of that is going to happen. The enthusiasm is going to wear of pretty quick.

What is there to mention? A man who hates and disrespects American and Americans, particularly Christians and the military is now president elect. He won't say the pledge of alligence, doesn't hold his hand on his heart, and I have serious doubts as to how the swearing in will go.

Other than that? America lost. Now we have to figure out how to survive four years of it.

There are herds of people -skin color immaterial- who have been sitting on their butts for generations waiting for somebody to give them a handout large enough to make them rich.

Four years from now, they'll still be waiting.

Classic,

There really isn't much to say. Anything was possible in this country before Obama got elected, and anything is possible after his election. The fact that he got elected shows that anything is possible. I think the morons are just spouting something they heard on TV. With hard work and determination, people can accomplish almost anything.

Somebody told me that they overheard two black men screaming at a white woman in a mall that they didn't have to worry about "the man" anymore since Obama is President. If that isn't the stupidest thing I have ever heard, I don't know what is. Who is "the man" and what makes them think they don't have to worry about "the man".

The poor are poor for a reason. On another board, I have heard that being poor is a mindset, and that it is hard to get out of it. I guess I kind of understand that, because a lot of us are reflections of our parents. However, my parents came to this country poor, worked hard their entire lives, and now have something to show for it. It is all about wanting to better themselves, and being willing to work hard to do so.

I didn't vote for Obama, but now that he is going to be the President I surely hope he does a very good job because this country needs it. The economy doesn't look like it will be getting any better until 2010, if then. We are probably looking at 2 years of tough times, maybe more. If he can do something about the economy, I will be impressed. Time will tell what kind of President he is.

There are all of two things I really hope don't happen. I hope there isn't another terrorist attack on American soil because I don't think Obama is the right guy to deal with that, but I could be wrong, and I definitely hope he lives through his entire Presidency because his death would probably cause some serious riots that this country cannot afford right now, if ever.

well being a veteran myself, I sure didn't vote for anyone that won't salute our American flag and to think he is going to be in charge of our Military Boys..anyone with the middle name he has. and still got elected?...they forget about the man that got hung?..why didn't McCain call him by his full name and stress his middle name?..what are these people thinking?....I know what got him in as well as everyone else and they walk around my neighborhood as if they won something themselves...for real..floating..gloating..what did make me sad was an interview with a black man on tv and he called it a 'movement' and also said since he is the president of the blacks....ah...wait a min here...isn't he to be 'our' president?.....will see...maybe we did need someone new to the game in there...instead of the professionals...I know I have been saying that for a long time..put in a farmer.....oh by the way, we did get a farmer elected in our local area....and even though Pa was Obama, at least my County of Beaver was McCain all the way...and that was strange since this area has been dem as long as I can remember....good luck to all....think +

Hey Fabs, talking about a farm there...and farmers...that farm I told you about a while ago....asking 600g...she accepted 400g and that deal fell in...couldn't get the cash....so is still for sale..enough land for a Buffalo farm..oh....I didn't mean to get this post off track...but just wanted to make a note to Fabs...back to the real important issue...please.

She is going to have a hard time finding a buyer for that farm in this market now. My wife and I put a contract on a single family home 3 weeks ago, and it took us a week to find financing on it. I have an 807 credit rating and my wife has a 784. If it took us a week, and a bunch of hoops to jump through on a house we can easily afford, I have no idea how anybody is going to be able to buy anything right now.

If we weren't looking at a second baby in May and the purchase of a single family home, I would have been very interested in that farm. Who knows, maybe I can get a couple of family members together and we can put an offer on it.

i didnt vote for Obama , i voted for McCain , many people here in my area NEPA voted straight party lines , which means they just didn't really look at the facts well thank god it will be only for 4 years, trouble is we all suffer because of the mentality of some people

[skeeter@ccia.com]

only 4 years we hope..like our Pa governor...for some reason he got back in...and I know of nobody that voted for him....but I guess we just have to hope for the best...might just get something done....well hope he gets things done other than messing with the second amendment...

sad day for Americans.

blacks are exstatic. i heard one black woman screaming at the reporter: "now i don't gots to worry about my mortgage an' car payment"

what do they think is going to happen? do they really believe that obama is going to have them send their payments to him and he will "take care of them"?

there is a very large cultural difference in this country. i, for one, don't believe it's shrinking...i believe it will widen with the coming presidcency.

i also believe it will be nearly impossible for obama to succeed because of his experience; i don't think he can handle it.

i think he was elected purely out of hatred of pres bush.
