Ummm....102 posts and no input from Tellm???? Did I miss his concession speech? Surely must have been a moving speech.
I was in California the night of the election, did my absentee ballot and voted for Tellm before I went out there. Imagine hearing the news at 5pm west coast time that Nobama was the winner. It must have been bad enough hearing it at 8pm eastern time once the polls in Pennsylvania closed....but to hear it as I was driving back to the hotel...I had all I could do to not crash into a pole when I heard the news.
Time to get used to the concept of spreading the wealth. So now the guy down the road that's on welfare and doesnt want to work for his money will reap the same rewards as me. That's great....I'm tired of working hard anyhow. Maybe he can have one of my 3 jobs....oh wait, that's right, Nobama will take care of him...with my tax money...
Everyone is so quick to blame the Republicans for the economic mess. But one fails to see that Democratic congresses and Presidents have led us down paths of trouble that Repubilcans have had to mop up. WWII, Korea, Vietnam...all developed while under Democratically controlled Congress and White House. All this crap in the middle east bloomed into a hotbed under Carter and again under Clinton. The Fanny Mae / Freddie Mac disaster took root under Clinton's watch, and boiled over during Bush II.
Do I blame the government for the current economic crisis? No. I blame the egos and greed of the CEO's of these companies. This problem started 15 years ago. My mother worked for Traveller's Insurance and was laid off in the mid-90's due to "downsizing"....the very same year the CEO of Traveller's took at $15 million bonus. Disgusting. I do blame the government for not prosecuting these offenders, but there's not much they can do in a free market economy.
In short, Nobama is gonna rape the working class. Do you honestly think he's gong to cut taxes to those making less then $250K a year? Please...it's just another empty campaign promise. So to all my brothers and sisters, I suggest you go to CVS or Walgreens and stock up on KY Jelly and Astroglide....cuz it's gonna hurt for the next 4 years.
