I just voted.

It's not like anything is going to change anyway.

The rulers are just wearing a different colored mask. The pendulum will continue to swing back and forth while they keep the American public just where they want them.

fucking shitty results. fuck.

it's crazy how overwhelmingly voters passed some very progressive/liberal ballot initiatives (minimum wage increases, medicinal marijuana, etc.), and yet, the GOP won a lot of races in these same states. it's obvious if you spell out the choices and benefits simply for voters, they act rationally... you confuse the hell out of them with campaign ads, racism, etc., and they don't. shows the power of out-spending and confusing voters with bullshit issues.

I love them..and even more because you hate them.

:yay:

Yeah, I think once all is said and done, most here think it is, to a greater or lesser degree, a big Kabuki show, regardless of whatever color jersey they wore to the voting place today, nevertheless.
 
Really?

No offense meant, but I don't really believe you.

If you really hated it I think you wouldn't live there.

Maybe you hate it once on election day every two years...


I think you really missed the point of the whole post.

If anything they can curtail the President, who might be the dumbest President of all time. So we got that going for us..which is nice.

I'd love to hear your argument backing up this statement.

That's been happening every year since 2010. Not sure what planet you've been living on.
 
I knew the outcome and didn't bother watching... Its depressing like Champ says. So all I did was post to myself on the Wings board watching them struggle to score.. Nothing ever changes in this country for the better unless you have tons of money.. Soon the republicans will have my zone redistrict so I have to drive 1000 miles to my voting place.
Hopefully we can keep the party of No out of the Whitehouse in 2 years.. I wonder now that they control the senate if they will filibuster themselves over and over again... Maybe they will get confused because they used it so much on Obama... It really sucks because if one of the old fuckers on the supreme court croak we will never be able to get a left or middle Judge in my lifetime.. We have already had to many terrible decisions by Robert's court.. Yup Obama was elected and the republicans have tried to block just about everything Obama has tried.. McConnell is just a piece of crap..

Yeah I think Reid gets a ton of blame there by basically shutting down the Senate.

It should make the show Alpha House even better..

Awe, that's a bummer Bob. No need to filibuster Obama will just bypass Congress he's good at that..

Best night ever..
 
Not even close...

Maybe from the 7 times he's hit 38% approval rating and the times he disregards Congress, like when he released terrorist without Congress approval.. Oh by the way to get back a deserter. Way to go Pres.

What do approval ratings have to do with how dumb a president is? If that's your criteria then you're wrong on that alone. I don't even like Obama and that's just poppycock.

Did you not read the rest..that's just being dumb. And maybe dumb isn't the right word here but these past two years have been awful. Reminds me of Bush's last two years.
 
I think it's time to amend the Constitution to limit the president to one six-year term. Same with Senators. One and out. Congresspersons get two four-year terms. And this will not be popular, but Senators should be appointed by the state legislatures and not elected by popular vote. The 17th amendment should be repealed.
 
well, it was only an advisory ballot proposal. The legislature is free to ignore the results if it makes rich people too uncomfortable.

after all, what's the education of thousands of poor kids when those few percentage points of income over $1MM can add up to a new convertible for the summer, another trip to Monaco, or few extra weeks at your winter home for our state's most privileged citizens? all worthy uses of our society's surplus, no?

Society's surplus - we're entitled to other people's property and productivity. Spoken like a true communist.

The other thing I love is that his big issues are pot and minimum wage. Big thinking going on there.
