“No matter who is elected, the likelihood of any of these fascist entities going away is minute.”

Unfortunately, I can’t disagree with you.

I’d like to see it become a topic.

Gwad - the lame stream meida have been reporting 11 million for over a decade. NO WAY, it is closer to 30 million and higher especially if you count the extended families that will flood over if they are not here already.

We are reaping what all the purists have sown.

As the President is so fond of saying; He Won. Get over it and move on.

Romney will never be president, and almost everyone on this forum said exactly that, but you non purists insisted he was the only one who could win.

It mattered not one whit how I voted because of where I live, but I denigrated my vote by voting for Romney, but I will never ever do something so stupid again. I have voted in every election since 1960, but I will not vote for a RINO again, I will write in a Patriot.

Like the old Three Musketeers except that they would be known as the Three Marxisteers.

Or the new “Three Stooges” - “Stupid, Whiteyhater and Comrade in Chief”.

In that case Mr DHS Idgiot, as a LEGAL American Citizen I declare that I than am entitled to hunt down and slaughter all illegal immigrants like dogs.

I have earned it by paying my taxes and putting up with the FERAL Government’s mandates as a LEGAL American Citizen.

I understand that a vote for Romney wouldn't have mattered in California.....we lived there for 20 years. But, I could NEVER in good conscience leave blank a spot where I could voice my opinion. How are you feeling about all the Executive Orders that Obama is promising for this year? Do you think Romney would have done that?? Romney did the Healthcare in Massachusetts because that is what Massachusetts wanted. He was an R Governor in a very D state. He said he would repeal Obamacare and I believe him. All the misery of Obama’s first 4 years will be exponentially worse. We don't have a chance of changing things now until 2016. And I believe all those illegal votes coming in for the Dems will likely assure Dem wins from here on out. I was in the ER after the election with an episode of high blood pressure as I realized our country was lost. Do not tell me there was no hope in 2012! It is NOT TRUE! Now there pretty much is no more hope for returning our country to one with a work ethic. The Dem voting base is with all those unemployed.......and that will continue for the foreseeable future. Thanks again.

Go find someone else to lecture.

I already told you that Congress is just as, if not more guilty than 0 and you ignore it so you can lay some more pro-Romney trash down.

You’re still in the blame someone mode...look in the mirror...voting for those scum time after time empowered them...read my tagline, might be enlightening.

You’re deluding yourself if you think it would have been different if Romney was in the White House. You would still have to contend with the Dems., aided by the RINO’s (That we held our noses and voted for) and House member RINO’s (That we held our noses and voted for) that vote in lock-step with the Democrats. Face it, the Republican party has NO balls, with the exception of a precious few. Where do YOU intend to draw the line? We either draw the line to elect conservatives or loose our country. Our only other choice is revolution. Semper Fi
By the way, I did vote for Romney, but, of course, he gave up with out a fight, after running a weak campaign. He tore into people in his own party, and kissed zero’s ass.

If I rob a liquor store does that earn me the right to own it?

It’s no hope with those who would prefer Obama.

To this day they comfort themselves with the thought that their vote would not have mattered.

I am sick and tired of all the BS about illegal immigration and “amnesty!”

There MUST BE NO “amnesty” deals! I am all for honest folks wanting to live and work in America. HST, they need to come here legally and live here legally and learn English!

This is America! We speak English!

If We the People have not enough sense to make and enforce laws designed to advance our culture and Western civilization, the we deserve exactly what we are going to get!

You will note that every single person advocating amnesty stands to gain financially FRom their advocacy. That is shameful, and we ought tar and feather them and run them out of America on a rail!

I am pissed, and I don’t mean to be shy about saying what I believe!
