November 5, 2008 - The post election thread

[ericire12]

Ok - so we are not all over the place, lets make this the place for the post election discussion.....



*************************************




Well, First off.... Much like after Y2K, I am glad to see that my computer still works.

2nd I think I am going to fly my flag at half staff today because yes, America as we know it just died.

3rd Any guesses as to how long it takes for "In God we trust" to be replaced with "Yes we can"?

4th If you own a helmet, put on the damn helmet.

5th I really hope socialism works out for us. It doesnt have a really great history.

6th So now that he is President Elect, when is he gonna pay off my mortgage? And when is gas gonna be free?

7th It was 349-162.... that is a blood bath

8th I guess this is how Keith Doberman felt when Bush got reelected.





"So this is how Democracy dies..... to thunderous applause."

This election was way to close to call our Great Nation lost, but I will carry on with my priorities:

1.  I will flaunt God and Jesus every chance I get in public issues to make sure they understand that our Nation was founded by Believers looking for a chance to freely worship and not be free from worship;

2.  With the new group I feel they will just reinforce the right to kill the unborn innocent, so I will support groups to help bring those lives into the world and give them a loving and caring home;

3.  I will work to strengthen our gun rights, and the bottom line will be when they pry my guns from my "cold dead hands" they will find my Bible in my pocket!

My problem is that when they start telling us they know better than us on how to spend our money and help the needy, how will I continue to give to others when the money has gone to the higher taxes they pledged not to raise.

Not really...... electoral vote was a huge margin, and the Pop vote was 52%-47% (about 6.5 million votes) ..... also a big margin by presidential election standards.

California has 16.1 million registered voters, so this margin is less than half of California's registered.  And, California has registered a low percentage of their eligable voters.

Minnesota has 3.1 million registered voters.

In the scope of the United States population and registered voters, the huge number of 6.5 million really isn't that big.  It is like talking about the National Budget.  The numbers are so big it is hard to put in perspective.

I have seen a very good video of this, but this is the only one I can find on line today. 

Nothing to watch, a little reading, but very good message to remember today and always!
