"I'm so sorry I voted for Obama" website
Official website ^ | Aug '09? | unknown

Posted on 08/21/2009 10:27:24 AM PDT by ransomnote

This website invites those who voted for Obama and now regret it to post their comments. There are about 1000 posts at the time of this writing and their goal is two million. Those who did not vote for Obama are invited to post comments made by friends or family who now regret voting for Obama. I encourage anyone interested to go to the site and post - but I hope that those of us who are infuriated by Obama will not use it to bash prior Obama voters. This opportunity for them to post Obama voter regrets can play an important role in allowing 'hold outs' who keep Hoping for Change to 'face' what he really is and it won't help them to see partisan commentary.

This comment from the website points to a reason why prior Obama voters are passive in their disappointment: "I work with a ton of Obama voters. None of them want to discuss him anymore. I kept telling him all through the election cycle that he was not the man he said and they thought he was. They wouldn't listen and here we are."

yeah, the problem is, most of these people regret voting for him simply because he hasn't done ENOUGH to turn this into their vision of a socialistic paradise.

he's too middle of the road for them!

Well it’s a little late to be sorry now. Our Founders never intended for mass democracy and for good reason. At the founding, only property owning males were permitted to vote in elections, the president was elected by the Electoral College, U.S. Senators were elected by the state legislatures. There was and ARE good reasons for such a system: The Founders created a limited government republic. Unfortunately we have transitioned to an unlimited government democracy which is turning us into a socialist state.

Not sure how many of these post are actually from real Obama voters, but this one sounds legitimate.

From someone calling them selves BigFatFatty:
“I had great hopes for the man. After he was elected I thought it would be good for the country. A time to heal after the past 8 years. Boy was I wrong. The man has done a complete 180 from the guy he portrayed himself to be. It is very discouraging now watching him run the country. He has no experience (cant believe I am saying that), is economically incompetent, and is driving this country toward socialism as fast as he can. So ashamed. Really I am.”

I don’t care THAT much how they feel. I care whether they object with placards and comments at townhalls. And if reading thousands of comments posted by fellow voters who have ‘faced’ what he is helps get hold-outs to openly object to what he says and does, and get some to stop idolizing him then by all means - let’s give them a safe place to get in touch with their feelings. I’d like reality to result in greater ratings dives when the man commandeers the networks to talk about himself etc. I want him to lose his followers.

I haven't been to the States in a while. Do they still have books and magazines about him displayed all over the place like when I was home in late winter?

I'd like to see those gone by the next time I go home.

Caught this from the comments section of a Wall Street Journal story today:

If I had a time machine, in addition to going back and changing a few things I did as a teenager, I'd change my vote back to Hillary. I can't even believe I let my wife and I get talked into supporting this liar.

President Obama is such a disappointment. He's kept only a couple of promises, even though the good guys control Congress. He's not uniting the nation like he promised either. He's not bringing us together - he's tearing us apart as he tries to increase his approval ratings.

I wanted him to be the first black president and he is. He's such a screw up, but it's not because of his skin color. It's because he doesn't know how to lead. There was a time I was worried about being called a racist for saying such things. Now I don't care anymore.

Obama is the most awful president we could have possibly gotten — even Dean would have done better.

I have lost faith in the Hope Barack has not brought to us. I do not trust what he says anymore. When he opens his mouth, nothing but lies fly out.

Like Rush says, “Once trust is lost, you cannot gain it back.”

I wonder if "relationship therapy" will be covered in Obamacare — the Independent who voted for Barack are going to need it.

In my area, I haven’t seen nearly the amount of Obama commemorative magazine that I used to.

And the area I reside in is highly blue.

You said — “This website invites those who voted for Obama and now regret it to post their comments. There are about 1000 posts at the time of this writing and their goal is two million.”

Well..., they better make the goal 5 million, if they want to make a difference. That’s what it will take to get to a “break-even point” for the figures in the last election...
