Terrible day for America in my opinion.  People want a nanny state, then I guess they will get it. 

I didn't vote for McCain or Obama. I voted for the libertarian candidate out of protest.

That said, I have no problem with an Obama victory. It signals a new age for the United States where the American people fully support getting whatever we can get from the government.  Beware what you wish for. 

My husband met with a Doctor today from India.  This very articulate intelligent Doctor shook his head saying he didn't understand Americans.  He can't understand why we want a Socialist nation.  He said he knew what that was like and believe him we have no idea what we're voting for.  He also said he took all his money out of the market and is putting it into property out of the country right now until he sees exactly what Obama is going to do..

I also talked to a guy today who said people have been leavning the states in the tune of 350,000 a year because they are jumping a sinking ship. 

Time will tell. 

Its the equivalent of a death.

Any thoughts on the future of JU once the fairness doctrine gets reinstated?

Congratulations, President-Elect Obama.  I can't believe this election is finally over...what a relief.

I feel some people aren’t ready of a black president and ant-black groups will go after him. I personally don’t mind a black president; I wouldn’t have minded a woman, Mexican, Asian, or even a Native American. That what I like about 2008 almost anyone can run for president as long as they were born in the U.S. or to U.S. born parents and the right age. I just have one concern if Obam does what he says about ending the war in the Middle East, I hope the Terries stay over there. Because that all we need another September 11, or worse because all they want is to kill anyone how doesn’t believe the way they do. Now I hope Obam realize that and dose what is need, I also hop he doesn’t get killed, I have family how live in the south and right now I just know how upset this make them they don’t like blacks at all so Obam being president is probably going over like a fart in church with them. Now as I said before I don’t care how is president as long as they do what is right for the county and not cause Clive unrest where it is everyone for them self’s. That is the last thing we would need however Obam being president it may not be so bad will just have to see what he does after he is sworn in next year.               

help our country by giving our money to the government?  So if you have money you've tucked away for retirement or whatever, and you know the goverment, i.e. Obama wants half of it, to give to your neighbor, you're ok with that? 

I haven't seen him help our country one bit. What has he done?  He just spent millions and millions buying an election.  That's it!  He should have won it.  He bought it.  He certainly hasn't earned it.  But that's his mode of operation I guess. 

Just think how much he could have helped our country.  Heck, he could have just given a small amount...say $10,000 to his brother's village in Kenya and done a world of good.  A good leader always leads by example.  I'm not liking his example so far.  When he cuts the military that ought to go over quite well with those waiting on the outside. 

Our country is on the way down.  We're no longer the big gun we once were.  I hate to say it, but it's true.   We need to wake up and smell the coffee.   

This nation is not what it was created to be.  It's not the same anymore. 

Winston Churchill was very damning in his critique of socialism.  In 1945 he said:

"Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and worship of the state.  It will prescribe for every one where they are to work, what they are to work at, where they may go and what they may say....No socialist system can be established without a political police." 

I drove an elderly woman to a new eye doctor yesterday.  I asked her why she was changing doctors.  She had no choice because her insurance plan wouldn't allow her to go to her regular doctor.  He wasn't on their list. 

Is that what you want?  Because that's where we're heading in all areas of life. 

Huxley wasn't too far off in his "Brave New World" afterall. 

KFC, I believed you to be Christian, right? Isn't this something we see the early church doing in Acts 2-4? I don't like socialism or anything, but isn't being a Christian mean that you love your neighbor as yourself. Not love the neighbor with bootstraps as yourself.

Read it again. You might figure out that I was talking about the difference between threatening and acting.

When I say that John McCain was my candidate, do you read that to mean that he is a secret system engineer?

I am saddened.

It's great and amazing that a black man can be president after so much stuggle.   But why did it have to be this one.

Having said that . . .the republican candidtate was a a failure and I voted for thelibritarian available to me in Texas.  I can only hope that my vote sends some kind of message.

The republicans don't need to change their message; they need to clarify it for the American people.  I suspect that the Obama presidency will provide quite the contrast.

Have you ever heard of an INCOME TAX?

America has spoken in a landslide victory, give us change (btw- America didn't want the bailout (heavy socialism) but both republicans and democrats voted for it, theres more than one person to blame)
