Thank you, the many legions of idiot voters who tonight flushed freedom down the toilet while opening-up the door to four more years of American fiscal and strategic collapse- this country will never be the same again (that is, if it survives in one piece).
But the most intolerant, power-mad, and radical administration in US history is about to get a WHOLE lot worse... now history will prove us who warned of the real Obama to be correct, but at this kind of cost, who even wants to be right?
Time to go Gault?
*** PING ***
By the time that his minions get done we won’t be America anymore!! He will divide us and try to conquer us!!!!
There is nowhere to go galt.
Just drop out and sign up for the freebies. Starve the beast.
The dam has ruptured, we will never fix it
No, time to seceed.
Texas is fine. Y’all are on your own. We’re like the Israel of the U.S. — an island of sanity surrounded on all sides by crazy people.

I’m not going complete gault.
But planed expansion of my company. DEAD
Planned expansion of my house. DEAD
Planned replacement of my car and truck. DEAD
I could go on.
I’m going as Gault as I can. Cutting way back on things I don’t need. starting to stock things I will need and cutting back on income to the point I’ll be getting more back than I pay in if I take the EITC.
If we can’t beat um at the ballot box, we might as well starve um at the collection box.
Yes, it is finished. I don’t think there is one shred of melodrama in that statement. It will have to be destroyed to save it but it won’t be saved.
Harrolds is right about the Supreme Court and many other things. Eight years is a long time.
Unless politicians wake up, and they never have, and fight this on our behalf for principles there will be nothing you recognize left. What is more, and do not discount this, we will be so weak we will be invaded I fear. I think it is likely.
Look to the riots in Greece, Spain and Italy. That is us in the not so near future and those now voting Obama will still claim it was Bush as it all happens. They will IMO NEVER be able to be self accountable for their vote and the damage it caused. Too much false pride went around the last two elections.
Party is over. In my voting in the last five decades I've never felt that. Now I am saying it. Put a stake in what was America, we are through as the nation we were.
We will all equally be poor and suffering under the kind of voting the people have been giving us.
You forget about us Okies to your north.
I am so stunned and shaken I can barely breathe. To witness what has just happened to this once great nation is heartbreaking. This is not just a loss to a Democrat, this is a loss of our entire vision of a nation.
As Valerie Jarret said last week (?) she will find you and get even with you, anyone who opposed this administration.
The government IMHO is infested beyond our imagination with the most evil people and now they have 4 more years.
Thanks to all of you $#&^Y&**@ that voted for this disgusting excuse for the highest office in what used to be a great nation. Shame on you for taking freedom from the rest of us. You have no idea what you have just done.
There is absolutely no way this many people would re-elect this POS.
I have lost all faith and trust in our electoral system.
I am through wasting my time voting.
Never again!
And yes, I also blame the media.
Tenth Amendment time. Take it back.
Texas will begin the process of secession, I am just not very happy to realize that this is our future. Red states will follow. What happens after that is anyone’s guess.
Texas is NOT fine. Obsma will target Tesas and other red states like never before now. Who or what is gonna stop him?
“If we can’t beat um at the ballot box, we might as well starve um at the collection box.”
________________________________________
That’s pretty much where I’m at
This was one battle that was lost. At best, this loss will help us avoid the obvious mistakes made.
There will be other battles in the future, and our goal is to win more battles than we tie or lose.
The purpose of our future battles is to win the WAR, just as Breitbart warned us.
On the positive side we need to list what the problems are.
On the negative side we need to list what mistakes were made.
If we fail to plan, then we are planning to fail.
For us FReepers, failure is not an option.
Show me one dollar, and one law that isn’t approved by the GOP controlled house. One dollar of debt that isn’t pre approved. Bohmer’s tears don’t absolve him and the House for full responsibility for the situation we are in.
The people have given Republicans one last chance by returning them to a majority in the House. Will they squander it again?
Sadly, you are correct Reaganite. The damage that Obama will cause in the next four years will be the nail in the coffin - there is no way whoever the President is in 2016 will be able to fix this.
No way whatsoever.
Texas is fine for now only but it is becoming blue by the day. It will not last. The past waves of illegals are but a trickle compared to the flood that is coming.
No part of this country is going to be exempt from suffering.
Sorry. Texas is infected to.
Liberalism has taken root in Austin and is spreading out from there.
It’ll just take longer to over take the host.
Great idea, bleed the system dry and hasten its demise. I am already kind of doing that by reducing any investment income I have to zero, less income, less tax IMO. Next up is to take a nice chuck of cash out of my IRA before the end of the year. Taxes are going up, so, pay me now or pay me more next year.
I admit, I was pretty confident in a Romney win. I did not pay the polls much mind, my feeling was based in logic by assessing how dumb would the electorate have to be to put this dope back in power. Well, I guess the adage one could go broke overestimating the intelligence of the average american voter is appropriate here. So, I am disappointed.
Rather than doing anything rash, I know the sun will rise in the east tomorrow, I just plan on charting a course to reduce any mental strain. First step, get away from politics, political discussion and worrying about what may happen to the country and others. I have made provisions for my family so I am going to the range tomorrow and have happy thoughts of who could be holding my targets!
*Galt
and Yes.
He already did. For four years. We’re still standing. Governor and Attorney General get to send him an nice f/u every once in a while.
Give us your best shot.
SnakeDoc
In four year we won't have to go through all this election day suspense. Won't that be sweet
Is this thread going to stay up?
What we learned:
Nominating moderates does not work. The President is an extremist who belongs to his party's radical wing. He won. Twice.
Painstaking GOTV and organizing turnout systematically can overcome a significant enthusiasm gap. They did the math and they did their homework.
The media will ignore its own professional interests (credibility, reporting on juicy stories) in order to propagandize for the left. Benghazi alone would have created substantial revenues and prestige - but they chose to bury it. Likewise Fast and Furious.
So, what now?
The GOP Congress must fight tooth and nail. Boehner must go and be replaced by someone with courage and resolve. Gridlock at all costs. Do not give an inch.
Rally early around around a conservative presidential hopeful. The more conservative and ideological the better. A clear choice.
Fighting voter fraud is job one. Purging the rolls, cleaning out the stables. And focusing this effort on swing states.
Open contempt for the media. Mock them. When Soledad O'Brien and her Ilk get aggressive, rip them apart, not caring whether you get invited back or not.
Use social media more intelligently.
get ObamaPhones for the whole family!
The wheel is weighted, the dice are loaded, the cards are marked, and the bouncer will not let you leave.
What do you propose?
Liberalism has been in Austin for decades. Its like a theme park attraction we visit to see what the rest of the hell hole states look like.
We’ve got ‘em quarantined.
SnakeDoc
So far, so good
At the very least, I think we'll see more attacks by the jihadists. They must be gleeful tonight.
My wife’s daughter already has one. She would fit the Obama voter to a T: female, pregnant, unmarried and sees no reason to work.
Look at all the Dem Newspapers that gave their vote to Romney. Iowa being one. I just can’t believe that American voter gave this man a second term.
There was so much more energy in the Republican campaign them the Dems; even the Dems and Obama staged a smaller place to hold their speech, because they felt they would lose.
And yet they won....unbelievable.
Yes, it’s been pretty obvious for a while that the country is in deep, abject, irreversible decay. Economically, culturally, and morally. The (only!) good thing about this election is that I believe it will finally wake up more people to this fact. And, at least start mentally planning for whatever post-America eventualities will arise, now that the “takers vs. makers” tipping-point has been breached. Whatever Galt-inspired movements or red-state secession scenarios, I’m pretty open to it all.
Schatze:
That will be the least of our worries. That would only cause mass tension because of pockets of destruction.
That Russian submarine is not off our East Coast on a pleasure cruise.
Agreed with all, except I’m not so sure we’re going to have elections, and open internet, or even an apparatus for enforcing the Constitution any more... could well be too late
btw, I was a Newt guy, imho he’d have unearthed all the media worked so hard to bury
Businesses that were hanging on by a fingernail hoping for a better climate with a Romney win will close. Many will surprise people. We will become a nation of 29 hour a week part timers.
Obama may not survive the Benghazi hearings. His plan to throw the entire intelligence community under the bus will fail miserably.
Goes without saying that in four years, it will be cold comfort that we were right about Obama.
Only good thing is we don’t have to kill some gangsta’s who be rioting. Killing emotional imbeciles wouldn’t have been fulfilling to the righteous.
Moving along and trying hard to do the right things.
ALL RIGHT! ENOUGH! WE’RE AMERICANS! WE LOOK TO A HOPE THAT THE MAYANS ARE RIGHT!.....

That would be the word, I’m still in a state of shock
We have lost our constitution and culture. I have a two year old grandchild. My heart weaps for her future. Pray for America.
The United States of America is over as we knew as children, and as we believed in it as optimistic young adults.
I fear that after four more years of Ozero,
we will never be able to get it back. I don’t know where
we go from here.
I only believe in Texas now.
And ANY red state willing to join us. It’s as if we are an island in a sea of insanity.
I would not be surprised to see this country spiral into
severe depression and even social chaos.
If you have not already gone Galt, do it. You have to starve the monkeys. Learn useful stuff, particularly medical first aid. Stock up on supplies. Don’t tell anyone. Don’t even respond to this post. Read up on useful tactics. Bartering. Keep money on hand, leave only enough to cover current bills. You are not earning anything on it anyway. Learn how to plant food you’d eat. Get non-powered tools, and items to maintain those tools. Don’t waste time on the monkeys. Focus on people you might have a chance to affect. Pray hard. Work on curbing and eliminating the sins you particularly tend to enjoy. Remember this war has no definite end, so one battle doesn’t mean anything is over.
i already went Galt... but it’s time to move on
now i have to decide which low tax country i’ll move the company to. having an internet based business, i can be anywhere in the world... so why pay 50-60% taxes instead of 10%?
and yes... i ADAMANTLY REFUSE to pay for abortions and the mooching stoner class
i have a few locations i’m considering... any suggestions from the FR community?
Funny, my first thought was “Another 4 years of blaming Bush.”
“Look at all the Dem Newspapers that gave their vote to Romney. Iowa being one”

About half are raving idiots just like in every other blue

Sad.
That and the senate doesn’t have cloture ability so things can be stopped there. Technically they could stop any nominee presented if they have the balls, and they damn better have the balls.
