Oh jeez...get off the mans nuts and get a hobby. It's sickening how someone could call being part of the media a "career"

...bunch on nosey fucks if you ask me.

...bunch on nosey fucks if you ask me.

LMAO. Thats THEIR JOB. To ask questions.


And seriously, thats not a problem to you in anyway? A person who he has mocked for the whole campaign as "inexperienced in foreign policy" and saying they mainly "disagree on foreign policy" saying she has "no experience" and then he appoints her to handle foreign policy? And you don't see that as an issue AT ALL?

This election is hilarious by the way. If you ever doubted that politics and this whole "republican/democrat" thing is a big scam, and that both parties are in on it, and out for power, this should be a prime fucking example.

The 3 main candidates (Obama, Clinton, McCain) are going to be in the same administration. This was our fucking choices. We choose between these people, you know based on their difference, which were purported to be huge, and then the winners proceeds to appoint his 2 competitors, and now there one big happy FUCK THE VOTERS family.

Oh and the governor of California has said "FUCK YOU CALIFORNIA VOTERS. We don't care that your the people and you run this state. And you voted overwhelmingly to pass Prop 8. I'm going to openly try my hardest to overturn the will of the people I work for."



Again, America was fun while it lasted.

I don't really see it as a problem at all. The media is trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill. We're all adults right? Okay...
...well we all know that you don't even have to be an adult in order to understand the concept of "win the race".
Highschool debate teams. Football games. It applies in alot of areas.
The object: Win the race. (or win the game at all costs)
We all know politicians play a dirty game.
They do whatever it takes to get into office. And that's good politicians and bad ones both. But nobody enters a race in order to purposely lose.
Obama made statements that we're overly aggressive towards Clinton's reputation and credentials at the time...
...but really now...is it a suprise to any of us?
No. It shouldn't be. Because we know that it's just how politics work.
That's just how "winning the race" goes.
So why attempt to crucify the man for his "remarks" 9 months later!?
Why try to create a sandstorm of questions out of something he said in March, and it now being December!? We're not blind...we see whats going on! There's nothing to question. lol
It's just silly...and even more so, childish.
8th...you can't stand Obama or anything that he stood for...
...so ofcourse anybody who was anti-Obama would enjoy this type of media lynching. But for real...all they're doing is pulling out rediculous stones to throw at Obama at this point.
The election is over. Trying to slander the man and everything else at this point won't turn back the sands of time for America to put McCain (or somebody else) into office.

Maybe you'll have a hard time sleeping at night...but I'd take a little more ease knowing that individuals like Obama and Clinton are behind the reigns of our country other than Bush, or someone who "Back Bush Up" almost 100% (and it's not like McCain didn't say it at some point)

Hillary and Barrack ran the race and did what they had to in that race...
...and if the throwing of slings & arrows in order to get the "one-up" comes with the territory...then so be it.
But thats how it goes. It's nothing to lose sleep over.
It's not being contradicting...it's simply politics.

All I'm saying is yes 8th...we know you have major doubts. But sometimes it has to be about faith as well. Don't be so cynical in thought...let things take their course and see what happens. If you were so afraid of the months to come...I'm sure you'd be planning your depature from the states. Let the man do the job he claims to want to do...and we can judge the aftermath. If he can't deliver on his word...the people will respond and fate will take it's place. In the mean time...why be negative!? Know what I'm sayin?

[Lawgix]

just like u 8th theres alot of people against obama... i still see people drivin around with McCain Palin bumper stickers on their cars and the rest of them are for Obama... right now the media is in a fuckin up roar because we have a new President Elect and honestly they lost faith in any leader of the nation... i'm sure if McCain won President Elect... he'd be receiving the same type of shit that the media is dishing out on Barack. but we'll never know... just like Kurse said... theres no turning back the sands of time... everybody knew that after the aftermath of Bush people were more likely to vote Democrat because of the fact that McCain said he supported Bush and what he believed in. do you honestly still want to see our troops in Iraq??? i know i don't and thats what Barack plans to do... but McCain still thought there was something to fight over. and theres not. they need to come home because some of them have wives and children. and some of them have families and friends that they wanna see. if anything i would be proud of having a leader thats going to bring our troops home from Iraq. i have a very good friend that i met at Community College who joined the army to go fight in Iraq. i haven't seen him in almost 5 years. so i'ma sit back n let Barack do his job. you don't have to like him... just don't contradict him yet... wait and see what happens. he may just save us from another 9/11. ya never know.
