You could have just done this without the vanity and everything would have been fine.

I feel the same way, but I must say. There are a lot of really great people here. We need each other. So like I am doing, go lick your wounds and then come back. I say screw the politics. It’s about survival now. Take care FRiend.

there wasn’t a single vote I made yesterday, senator, Prez, all the California propositions, that mattered.

I didn’t get one single bit of good news on this election. California unions and their minions, voted for increased taxes, to weaken the 3 strikes law, to give unions continued right to take money from employees checks to support their own cause...etc..

The TV is off now for all news, I can’t stand to look upon the face of this disgraceful president.

What if Washington and the few troops he had gave up Valley Forge, or the initial defeats we suffered at the beginning of WW@ - what if we all just gave up.

The Obamination has been given four more years to destroy this country. I'd rather stand and fight than crawl off somewhere in self pity.

Maybe a good idea for short term but long term we need every patriot. The Constitution would have never been written if the Founding Fathers only looked at odds or wins & losses.

A lot of work to do, join True the Vote or some other organization to ensure fair voting. Keep up on FR and join in on phone protests or other ways to be heard. They won four years of President but only two for Senate. Find good candicates to run in 2014, maybe even run yourself.

Like Shane once said when told he was leaving one way or the other, “I’d like to think it was my idea.” Keep fighting on your terms.

I'm taking a leave of absence from the entire internet EXCEPT for FR. I've Gone Galt from all TV, news, internet, ect.

Screw Politics. I'm preparing to take care of myself and those close to me. And FR is a resource towards that goal, as well as a comforting reminder that I am not alone.

“... it fell way below our expectations.”

Not FR fault — on TV this a.m. someone called it “misplaced optimism.” Well that optimism was “placed” by Rove, Rasmussen, Morris, Gallup and even Barone.

I agree with another — take a break — see ya in the New Year.

Okay we get this day of whining, crying and complaining, but hopefully tomorrow we get back to business, and hopefully as conservatives learn how to be united, stop all the infighting, set goals and objectives as to how we take our country back, and establish strategy.

If too many do what you are wanting to do, our task will be that might harder.

Think about it...everyone!

Thanks for posting. Others may disagree, but I’m interested in our various reactions to recent events.

I can’t see myself ever leaving FR - it’s too valuable as a news and information source, useful commentary aside. I generally have a 2-3 day lead (often more) on what eventually gets broadcast on the nightly news, and that may be very valuable in the future.

To be honest, I’ve already had my fill of the election discussion. No longer interested in those threads, so I just don’t read ‘em. I am very interested in others’ expectations for the future and in learning what their plans are to deal with them. FR is a good place to have one’s ear to the ground, so to speak.

Dark days are ahead. I liken the situation to Sandy - being prepared is important, but knowing what’s on the horizon is crucial too. You need both to survive. FR is my “over the horizon” warning system.

Actually, I feel more drawn to FR when we LOSE. It's a place to vent, and share ideas and comments with like-minded people.

Sometimes non-sensical and liberal-minded people post, but all you have to do is not read them.

But, we all sometimes need solitude to lick our wounds and re-group.

Good luck.

You need to listen to some good ol boy music such as Willie Nelson: “We don’t run, we don’t compromise, we don’t don’t quit, we never do” or Stoney Larue: “If I’m goin’ down, I’m goin’ down in flames.”....that sort of thing. Your name sounds like you are a competent person of good size and we need that sort. Men leaving is how our country got into this feminized condition in the first place. All men, please, please show up and do manly things. The Govt. is taking over your raison d’etre here on earth. It is YOU who protect, fix, innovate, start up, explore...you. RETURN SOON TO MAN STUFF...or lose it all.

So long, You won't be forgotten till you leave. Cherrio, all that, keep your chins up, keep your shoulder to the wheel, your back to the wall, your eye on the ball...

That's all the parting wisdom I have.
