I'm scared about Tuesday. I think something may happen.
Well, it's looking like Obama has a good chance of being elected, in which case there will be a long sigh of relief, even joy, for a lot of people, and consternation for others who think the sky will fall, which it won't.
The only way McCaca wins is if he cheats, like Bush and company did, twice. The Repubes are doing their best to purge voters, intimidate, mis-inform, a good bit of which is illegal. The great promoters of democracy seem to have to resort to voter suppression most every election now....
If the latter does happen, there will be a serious fuss for a while, and I hope the Dems don't cave this time.
No riots, maybe some rowdy celebrations, back to business-as-usual by the end of the week is what I expect. I'm more afraid of what Bush and company will do in the last three months of this disastrous administration
And then there's the long haul. It's gonna be tough digging out of the hole that got dug for us.

You fucking DemocRATs are twice as stoooooopid as the dum bass repukicans.

Hot damn !!
I'd never seen democrat spelled that way.
What a bright, insightful reply, Rotara. Can you utter something besides invectives?... Seems you're about to have a Democratic government, for a change. Best you get more comfortable with it.
Scrolling through the comments, seeing X-15's repetitive anti-Christ graphic, I'm reminded of the anti-Christ schtick that was laid on Reagan because each of his names consisted of six-letters. 6-6-6 was supposed to be some kind of sign.
While I didn't and don't appreciate his Presidency, I think that was BS then and is BS now.
And for Rotara, thanks for more mindless invectives. When you get rational, maybe even civil, there might be a discussion to have. Meanwhile, I don't intend to be the wall on which you throw your shit.
You know, the search result you get when you put to userids/posting name in the search function, one from the other to.
After you do that come back and say the only thing that would leave you as an honest response: "Oh... Hey OK I see your point, I'm sorry."
I'll give you a pass on your condescending instructions to me for using the search function because you appear to be in a bad mood. However, in as much as Rotara has said nasty things to you in the past, how does that excuse salemguy for his impolite remarks especially since he's new here and hasn't even had the time to demonstrate he can make positive contributions to the forum to offset his negative input?

"You fucking DemocRATs are twice as stoooooopid as the dum bass repukicans."
"You worthless Traitors are fortunate anyone even acknowledges your existence in a Freedom forum."
"Hahaha! We're going to have the same s#it the National Globalist - World Socialist Traitors have been giving us, only worse."
...and the anti-Christ graphic...
So you consider these to be positive contributions? Everyone here seems to have pretty strong opinions. How, pray tell, have I offended?
They have a double standard. If you are a NeoCon or conservative, you have an open season to say whatever you wish, regardless how bombastic or threatening it is.
But if you go counter the official line of the approved clique, they get teething pains and need to be burped.

You are free to ignore impolite remarks. In fact as a new poster with not much of a positive contribution posting history - with an aim of creating good first impressions and putting your best foot forward and all - I think it would have been a prudent thing to do. But you're not me. And this is a free speech forum after all. So carry on.

i don't think you have offended, salemguy. you're correct that everyone here has strong opinions, but obviously some are more vitriolic in their expression of them than others.
i understand that emotions are highly charged at election time with this one moreso than ever. for that reason, i'm allowing them to cyber-duke it out.
