I can’t give a racist America-hating thug even the courtesy title of “mister”. I don’t have enough respect for him to call him anything but his name, “Hussein”. More usually “the racist socialist”. I will return years of BDS with ODS, in spades. I don’t respect him even as a man, much less as a president. He got where he is through lying, cheating Chicago machine politics and ACORN fraud, why would I respect him? Just see how much respect he deserves when Jeremiah Wright, the racist America-damning white-hating thug, is sleeping in the Lincoln bedroom. My brother is leaving the military he has served long and faithfully before he’ll ever salute this racist traitor.

David Axelrod’s parents were old Marxists.

[retrokitten]

Tony Snow as well.

I've been thinking about Tony tonight, too, and what he would say to us. IMHO, he'd tell us to chin up, keep our sense of humor, and get ready to work and fight for the next four years!

[defconw]

TY.

I love my boss and my job, but he's self made and in Minnesota the tax rate was already out of control. I know Bob will do his best to keep going. But..............

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Exactly. EVERYTHING that happens from here on will be on the democrats watch.

And that's so typical of our politics nowadays. Carter was a reaction to Nixon. Reagan was a reaction to Carter. Clinton was a reaction to Bush. Bush was a reaction to Clinton. And on it goes. The masses are fickle and don't understand the first thing about the issues at stake.

We are already planning to cancel our cable. My boys will be very upset (no Disney Channel) but I will not feed the beast anymore. My favorite shows go *poof* as well.

I have been praying for God’s Will to be done, and I know that He will take something evil and turn it for His Glory. It gives me great comfort that He is in control. I have complete faith and total trust in Him.

I want these schleps who voted for Hussein to start screaming and realize they have been had.

Oh they will. He used the same "tax breaks for the middle class" to win his senate seat, then voted to raise taxes 94 times. He lied. This time, he lied again. There will be no big checks in the mail. People are going to get a bill instead.

People are going to be pi$$ed. They think he's actually going to do what he said. Man, are they in for a dreadful suprise. He loaths the middle class. He always has.

brit hume is gushing obama.

[TXBlair]

Thanks! I figured anyone who is named retrokitten and who plans to loot the likes of Taco Bell and Denny’s is my kind of person...I KNEW I could count on you in these tough economic times!! :o) (See my tagline)

[retrokitten]

Could this be the blessing with the best disguise ever? Or is it lack of sleep?

Probably a little from column A and a little from column B.

There is no way he can live up to the hype and unrealistic expectations projected on to him from his followers.

[mystery-ak]

Thank you so much Starwise...what an awful night this has been.....God Help us all and God Bless our military....they deserved better than this...

[LostInBayport]

I think what died tonight was rugged individualism that Rush talks so much about. It’s going fast and when people like us pass away, the real America will have finally ended not with a bang but with a whimper.

I don't disagree, sadly. But what was it replaced with? Again, promises of lots and lots of free stuff on someone else's dime. This is what Barack must deliver, and a lot of the middle and upper class liberals who voted for him are the pockets he's going to pick to get it. They won't want him to, despite their blather about sharing. But if he doesn't tap them, he's going to make the "gimmees" mad. At least that's what I hope happens, to tear his "coalition" to shreds.

[concerned about politics]

Hussein”. More usually “the racist socialist”.

I refer to him as the Marxist Messiah.

[SoCalPol]

Same mentality when Hitler won.
But I won’t celebrate this Marxist.
My relatives fighting this war are not happy.

[Taxachusan]

Well, I said “if I am feeling charitable”. I don’t imagine I’ll be feeling too charitable for awhile LOL.

[KeepingFaith]

“I pray she is helping from where she is, to get us through this. Tony Snow as well.”

Now I’m in tears. Thanks for remembering Tony Snow. His presence, intelligence, and class were sorely missed tonight and will be throughout this whole ordeal.

[Majie Purple]

I meant opposite reveled.

[mrsmel]

America just elected a Jew Hater would hates Isreal and befriends her enemies. God’s grace on this country has fled.

Good point. One more curse to chalk up to the left, the socialist-elect, and the stupid American Idol watching, public school indoctrinated electorate. Bread and circuses.

[Darth Republican]

Lament of the Unknown American

"In America, they first blamed the Conservatives, for everything that went wrong in the world,
And I didn’t speak up and say that's not true, because I wasn’t a Conservative;

And then they blamed George W. Bush for everything that went wrong in the world,
And I didn’t speak up and say that's not true, because I hadn't voted for Bush;

And then they blamed right wing talk radio for everything that went wrong in the world,
And I didn’t speak up and say that's not true, because I didn't listen to the radio.

And then blamed me for everything that went wrong in the world,
And no one spoke up for me

And now there's no one left to blame."

“EVERYTHING that happens from here on will be on the democrats watch.”

You nailed it.
Starting today it will be Obama’s War
Starting today it will be Obama’s Depression
Starting today a new Freedom Party will emerge. There will be Resistance

I’m a naturalized citizen. I loved the America that once was.
I feel as sad for America today as I did on the day Elias Gonzalez was denied his freedom. I think most of us Freepers are going to feel like young Elias did facing the gun barrel of those who “rescued him.”

Starve the Beast - Don’t even tip - The Messiah will provide.
