I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

If Obama is reelected, this country will fall.

I'm 27 years old and have nothing going for me. More companies will go out of business, and more jobs will be lost and shipped overseas. I'm going to be fined because I won't be able to find a job to buy worthless government healthcare.

I came home from voting upbeat and confident. Now I feel useless and I'm at a crossroads in my life that I fear and don't want to face.

I'm almost 30, and I have nothing. What the hell am I going to do?

I'm pretty damn depressed right now. I have no idea what I'm going to do with my life.

At least you got 5 years on me. The American Dream is dead, I just wish we we born earlier to experience it for ourselves.

I’m not pimping a blog, and dunno how you guys feel about vanities, but any hope I had for the future of this country, as well my own future, was pretty much just flushed down the toilet tonight.

I feel like I should crawl under a rock and wait for the end of the world.

Similar boat as you. 28 years old, just scraping by. No real future prospects I’m afraid.

Stop whining and use the intelligence God gave you.

Move to Canada, get in the Oil business, and watch the collapse.

I’m 10 years your senior and I don’t know what to think. My wife wants to check out of this country...seriously were not pulling a histrionic reaction here. I don’t know what to do. I feel totally lost for me and my family.

Keep working. Continue to be a good worker and trying to move up the latter. Also invest in yourself at every opportunity any free seminars, any schooling, anything to make yourself more marketable and employable. Stay positive. Politicians come and go, but you will have you and are in charge of you until you die.

Find what comforts you too when it comes to faith and practice that on a regular basis. You will find yourself going forward and growing in experience and soul each year.

Keep the faith my FRiend. Let no man or government stop you from thriving and being the best you that God intended. In adversity all men are tested. This is where you carve who you really are. Be great. Be the change you want my FRiend. Be sure too to fill yourself up to doing the things you enjoy that make you feel good.

Our generation will turn out to be the worst America has ever had, should there be an America in another 10-20 years.

He may go for broke and destroy it in another 2 years. I consider scorched earth highly likely.

At this point..I am pretty much DONE with politics!! A couple months ago—or less...a poll came out that the American people only want ONE party rule—Democrats.. I guess they are going to “get what they want”.

Revelations is about to be fulfilled before our eyes, folks....

There is a God, and He is in charge.

Put your hope in Him, not in men, not in their governments, and not even in their armies. Because nothing can happen unless He either allows it or causes it.

It’s ok.

Tomorrow, the sun will shine, the birds will sing, the rain will fall, and the wind will blow.

I am in my sixties and have survived twelve presidents.

When I hear people say that they’ve never seen the country more divided, they musta forgot the 1960s. They musta forgot the Civil War. They musta forgot the Women’s Temperance Union and Prohibition.

We’ll get through this.

Get married.

Have lots of children. Home school them. Teach them self-reliance, and encourage them when they marry to have lots of children and do the same.

The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.

I’d like to move outside the country, but don’t know where.

I’m 43, and I feel stupid for never taking advantage of the American dream, for taking it for granted, that in time, that I will get it when I’m ready, but... I’ve squandered it. I am a fool.

God help us. All we have now is the Senate and House to keep him in check, but he has so many ways around everything, and oftimes, too many of our own kind bending to his will and giving in, “compromising.” Bad day for America. Damn the fools who voted for him.

When I was 27, I had also had nothing.

Now I’m 57, and I have something. I’m small potatoes, but I’m happy potatoes.

It took a long time for me to figure out how to get along in the world. You’ll do it too.

America is not going to fall. America is a process, a methodology. It’s based on human nature, and human nature isn’t going to change.

There’s lots of feedback loops operating here. Far too many for anyone to keep track of, certainly not for Obama and his loser minions to keep track of.

We’ll pick ourselves up and carry on. You’ll be part of it. Don’t worry.

I am so angry....so upset.....

I should tell myself to focus on God, and the family, etc...

but I can't right now....

its over....its done....elections are massively corrupt because I know in my heart Romney had this won....

I guess it'll be Canada if things get much worse, if they'll take us...

I hate everyone who voted for the nazi dictator, and the trouble is, my family is in that group...

so what do I do now?

You will do what you can. People had to deal with Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. We just have to be tougher.

When I said I have nothing, I meant it. No job, no savings, CC almost max and little left in my account. I’m just lucky my parents haven’t said the proverbial “bye” to me yet.

I don’t know how I don’t drink myself into the hospital when I feel like this.

as a mother of an unemployed 23 yo and 34 yo army vet and a grandmother, my heart is just breaking for you and for the conservatives this country. I have no use for any Obama voter - family or not.
