    Election night in the USA (President, etc)

    This country won't be fixed until the social issues and the economic issues are separated. In our society liberal economics are going to push us to become a third world country. Yet being a conservative on social issues will never win an election again, even though a conservative President would never be able to overturn Roe V Wade, the liberals will scare everyone to think that the Republican gestapo is going to imprison everyone who doesn't go to church and believe the Bible word for word, and might even reinstate slavery.

    This was an election that needed to be based on stregthening our economy, creating jobs, and protecting us from future terrorism. Instead it turned into bashing a man for his morality and religious beliefs. I am not a religious person, but in my opnion this country continues to deteriorate on a social level, and no leader is going to be able to stop that because of the strength of the liberal media and the lack of strong family values alone. So voting on social issues that will probably never affect you anyways was a very short sighted vote in this election. But that is what the left wanted people to do, because it was the only way they could make a case for re election. And as long as certain people feel there is a chance that their rights and freedoms might be taken away by someone, (whether these feeling are reality based or not), people will vote with their hearts instead of using their heads.

    Most people, (52%), don't see that the economic engine of the USA is what really gives us our freedom, and are more worried about their individual rights to do anything that they want, than realizing in the big scheme of things you can't do anything you want if you can't pay for it.

    I will survive and me and my family will be fine because the only thing that really affects me is me...I learned this when I quit drinking.

      This never happened, you are either making it up or are believing somebody else's nonsense. If you are unhappy about the outcome, that's one thing. But this is a silly thing to believe happened and/o r to repeat having happened.

          Hey hey... go easy there. Lucky's a grown woman with a good head on her shoulders. I'm not interested in the validity of Lucky's statement, but you don't need to talk down to her or say she's making stuff up. End of.

            My words may be blunt, but her post was a ridiculous statement to repeat as fact. She may just be passionately upset over the outcome, but maybe my post will be the voice of reason to help her come back off the edge.

                Interestingly enough, a volunteer was arrested in a state for getting caught tampering with ballots, luckily she was caught Pre-Election. So, I wouldn't be surprised in this crime free day that we live in, if it was possible.

                  Awww.... that's really nice of you... maybe she'll accept the hand of friendship you are offering to her... to help her off the precipice. You're a good soul Nuttmeg... :l

                    Hmmm.... Google "Electoral Fraud" and see what you get.

                    Incidentally... I did NOT vote. I am unbiased.

                      I think you are referring to the voter registration tampering:
                      Man registering voters for GOP accused of tossing forms in trash - latimes.com

                      But even this crime is a far cry from the event described. But that's enough from me on this, I've said my piece on it and shall move on.

                        Ne...........Don't read it ! I do believe in freedom of speech. So if you don't like what I'm saying then I must shut my mouth !?! I don't live in a Communist country. But as I said before....if you don't want to air out your feelings then let this thread die out by not answering to it.

                          Oh come on! Enough is enough. Reggie! WTF?! I really honestly have no axe to grind... I am "on the fence" as they say... so don't pull me into the political bullshit... I have zero interest in getting involved in that nonsense.

                          The one point I made is that someone got jumped on and called a liar... and I happen to know that person... and looking at what was posted I do not believe she was fabricating the truth.

                          Gawd... DRAMA!!!!!

                          Chill out y'all. The elections are over with. Keyrist....................

                            Ne.......So this is'nt about freedom of speech, it's about not agreeing with your point of view. Look I did'nt really expound on all the subject matter you just out lined .( insults ,slights, right wing conspiracy) If you so easily get offended then don't read the thread. I'm not going to do a tit for tat with you.........I have my point of view and you have yours. The only difference is those words you said to me, neither angers me or hurts my feelings. I'm mature enough to know that people have their own point of view and I'm ok with that.

                            In the words of Zenstyle: Chill out the election is over!

                              It seems to me IAD was just looking for a discussion on current events. No need to have feelings hurt. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. And despite the arrest of the man who made the YouTube video the President and his minions blame for the attack on the US embassy, we still enjoy free speech in the US.
