THOSE WHO CHOSE REPUBLICAN, I HOPE YOU WILL BE HAPPY WHEN WE LOSE OUR SS, & ANY FORM OF GOVERNMENT HELP. DON'T BE CRYING WHEN ANOTHER KATRINA COMES AROUND, TERRIER ATTACKS, MEDICAL SERVICES, ROAD & PUBLIC SERVICES, WATER TREATMENT SERVICES, FOOD REGULATIONS....ETC....ANYTHING THAT GOVERNMENT MANAGES. DON'T EXPECT ANY HELP FROM YOUR GOVERNMENT B/C YOU JUST VOTED IT OUT WITH YOUR CHOICE. HOPE YOU LIKE LIVING LIKE YOUR BACK IN THE DARK AGES OR IN THE WOODS!!! IF ANYTHING YOU'VE JUST MADE AN *bleep* OF YOURSELF!
You obviously don't know what it means to be American. Americans don't need handouts, we work for a living and pay our own way. We don't want to give up all our freedom to a government in exchange for their "help." If everyone was on the take like you obviously are, who would pay the taxes for the government to give away everything for free? The Constitution clearly enumerates the powers of the Federal government, and it sure doesn't mention anything about being a welfare agency. People who live on government handouts are stealing money from those of us who work and get our hard earned money taken away by taxes to support lazy losers. I'd rather live in the woods as a free person, than live in some mansion as a slave to the government.

You know what that person meant--terrorist not terrier.  Don't knock that person either--because I've come across lots of misspelling so who are you to judge--just saying!!!

The point was that you don't go all caps, yelling at how stupid Americans are, all the while misspelling words and making yourself look like an idiot. She insulted everyone all the while saying we were attacked by terriers. We know what she meant, but if you're going to call people stupid, be prepared to have something like that called out--just saying  :wave:

Well, people are entitle to their opinions!!!  I know I'm not a stupid American so I don't care what the person said I don't feel she insulted me! I really do not care!  I'm still an American citizen and I don't see her moving out of the country and of course there is the Freedom of Speech.  May not like what the person says but they have the right to say it!!  Well let's but it another, no one in this forum is not that important that what they says upsets you so badly that you go rant about it for two or three pages.  History has shown over and over again that nothing is going changed unless enough people want it change and decide they had enough and do something about.  Otherwise "it's business as usual."

All I can say is WOW!

I do not claim to be affliated with any particular political party and right now I have never been more proud of that or the fact that I am AMERICAN and PROUD to live in a place with such freedoms.

If you think about it you should be too, since if you were pretty much anywhere else, you would be in prison or worse right now. Gotta love freedom of speech. Maybe you should check out some of the other countries limits on free speech before you make a comment about not being a proud American...

Out of curiosity I googled "how many countries think americans are stupid"  You maybe be surprised at the results.   But like anything else, it's a matter of opinion.   I'm proud to be an American regardless of election results or whatever people think.  And someone really "hit the nail on the head" when they said that in another country this person could have been jailed or murdered for what they said because such a thing as "Freedom of Speech" doesn't exist.

LOL ahhh...this was good for a morning laugh. I agree that having political parties is moot in this day and age. So many people have a mix of beliefs from both sides of the fence. And what the hell happened?? We became a society ruled by it's "upper class." The big and rich are the ones with power and we're stuck yet again following their decisions instead of being allowed to have a say on Capital Hill. I don't know about you guys, but that 67 year old man with two ex-wives, a stake in several big companies, and a vacation house in the Hamptons doesn't have a clue about what I want! We need some real grass roots candidates in office, not some guy in an expensive suit who has "beer summits" in front of cameras for publicity and old men who have been squatting in their seat since FDR was president....

I'm very proud to be an American and blessed to be living in the land of the free and the home of the brave. We enjoy our freedoms today because somebody paid the price for that freedom.  This week I'm reminded of the sacrifice our military personnel have sacrificed for that freedom.

I married a Navy man, who was the son of a Navy man, My Dad and Uncle were Army, and my son was Air Force for 10 years.  My Dad and Uncle are buried on military grounds with full honors.  This Veteran's Day I remember their sacrifice and duty for our country.

However we vote or don't vote is personal to each individual.  You may not like how I vote or I may not like how you vote.  However, we can agree that this is still a free country, and a great country, and we all love her.

Then Leave. Simple as that. Get out of America, if you're so unhappy.


I completely agree....If you don't like America or Americans, get the hell out.....We don't need you here!

Most Elections are VERY slim.  I voted for Obama.  I was promised change. He ran under the guise that he would bring our troops home, work with Republicans to compromise and provide health care to more Americans. Well, he didn't.  Like I said, most margins in an election are razor thin.  He pissed off a few people all over and this happened.  It's not like EVERYONE became Republican.  More like it was 49 percent, now it's 52 percent.

I was really hoping she'd have replied to my post that I did originally.
I guess this was just her way of venting and yet not having any ability to come and make a well thoughtout post in reply.

Oh well.

I know you are just joking and you are doing a great job.  You have gotten a lot of responses to your remarks.  I only have a few recommendations for you:

1.  Leave the United States immediately, assuming you are even an American.

2.  Less government is good.  The only thing the government does well is maintaining its military.  And to that end, I am extremely proud of my country.

3.  Nothing is free.  We must stop handing out entitlements to people who choose not to work.  They are non-productive citizens!  I am not talking about disabled people here.

4.  I do agree with you about people who did not vote.  People who do not vote are not using their freedom to make this country great once again.

5.  The President must start leading!!!  He has not proven to me yet that he has that ability.  He seems to be a good manager, but that's not what we need in a President.

6.  Get over the past election.  Get on board and start doing something instead of spouting off with words.  Actions are what we need now.   :notworthy:

Oh no, she's not joking.  :P
That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.

You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into in the first place.
