Clarke Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Made my first friend deletion today on Facebook. My newsfeed was full of disgruntled people being openly racist after the election results. Some ultra conservative Christian folks from undergrad years openly called for rapture and bestowed the title of 'Antichrist' on the President. In my 17 yrs living in US, I have never seen average normal family folks turn into this ignorant, despicable, racist individual over election results. Mind=blown. No big deal, both sides have the same problem as per our resident conzzzvative. Watch Hannity and you'll know about the dangers of Black Panthers :haha: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coffee_rules Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 A lot of dems/libs also wanted to move out of US during Bush years esp after 2004 reelection. Madonna, Depp and other celebs even did so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suraj Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Obama has his work cut out for him; what he needs post-victory celebration now is really the right kind of smart ppl on both sides to come up with solutions Hopefully the sincere politicians now rise above petty partisian attitudes and solve the real problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If republicans continue to be run by the loonies in FOX news they are going nowhere. They will be a permanent opposition party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes- everyone knows that Republicans need to take a step back and revisit their approach but at the moment things look really gloomy on that front. It only leads to maniacal brainwashing specially if you are in one of those red states and get bombarded perpetually by that kind of propoganda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont worry, their next candidate will be Marco Rubio :cantstop: , as for moving: if they think economy in the US inst good and wish to move for that then Europe is not a great choice, they can go to Australia but Aussies have a woman PM, who is an atheist and has a Finance minister who is a lesbian and she probably will be the next PM. Also Aus is very close to legalizing same sex marriage. Church and state are very much separate. So basically they cant go anywhere :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

someone Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 1. Could anyone explain the core issue why Donald Trump hates Obama? What the fundamental difference in terms of the policies, thoughts? 2. Why do still many Americans believe there is the thing like "only hope of the world". With that logic, they only hurt themselves by getting into unnecessary situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariyam Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 1. Could anyone explain the core issue why Donald Trump hates Obama? What the fundamental difference in terms of the policies, thoughts? 2. Why do still many Americans believe there is the thing like "only hope of the world". With that logic, they only hurt themselves by getting into unnecessary situations. There isn't much. Happened to see one of the debates and both the candidates appeared to agree on many issues. It's in the interest of everyone concerned to make it out like it's an election between 2 hugely different sides when they more or less agree on many things. And people are brought up to trust in the news they read or see on television so it's no surprise everyone buys the huge ideological battle between the total retard & the slightly-less-of-a-retard-but-still-a-massive-retard.
