Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1054 Joined: 14 Dec 2007    | Well, seeing as how I didn't vote for either of them and never would in a million years, I can't say I'm happy about how it turned out. But I'd still pick the brass-knuckles to the face that is Obama then the chainsaw to the balls that is McCain, so.... ...I win? |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3310 Joined: 10 Oct 2008    | I just watched his speech. DAMN!!!! That was some an awesome speech! I have not seen a speech come out of a President elect like that for eight years! w00tX1,000,000!!!!!! |
Paperboy  Posts: 37 Joined: 5 Nov 2008  | I just saw his speech on MSNBC, and he only mentioned God once! ONCE! In the "God bless you and god bless america!" he said when he finished talking. I'm so happy I could cry. A non-God-crazy speech from an American president! :') |

Woah woah hang on? Those are the reasons you didn't vote for him? I've lived in Singapore and it was less of a culture shock than reading that. |

Beat Writer  Posts: 168 Joined: 2 Sep 2008  | Well, really guys? I was expecting at least 10 more threads like this to pop up. :D All I can say is that it's fine, since he's not Clinton. I gets to keep my copy of Left 4 Dead. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3310 Joined: 10 Oct 2008 | We my fellow humans are living through real history. This day of November 4th 2008 will be remember for centuries in the history books as a day that American society changed for the better in so many ways in is almost beyond comprehension. We are living in a truly amazing time. This will be studies by children in books in class rooms around the world. The first non-White man has been elected President. We have changed, we have changed forever! |

Copy Clerk  Posts: 105 Joined: 2 Jul 2008 | WHOO!!! President Barack Obama. It's great. I guess we'll just have to wait and see how the next four years pan out. Also thought McCain accepted defeat rather graciously although his crowd did not lol. Well here's to this being the right call. :) |

I will remember Nov 5th and thus FUCK UP HISTORY! ... if I ever become the, uh, Queen of Sheba or something. It is a historical event, for sure. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3310 Joined: 10 Oct 2008 | What is sweet is a Democratic majority in the Senate, in the House, and Presidency. That is the BOMB. |

Dude, you are clearly not taking advantage of a very wonderful thing. You need to be out there showing some support and going home with a frisky liberal (you know, they put out). |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1098 Joined: 31 Mar 2008     | I just like to remind people that Obama voted to allow phone companies amnesty for spying on us. He coted for military spending and to renew the Patriot Act. (All of which he promised not to.) He is also going to escalate in Afghanistan. Biden was one of the champions of that bullshit bankruptcy bills a few years back. Obama may have won but the real problems are going to start when we hold him accountable to his promises. |

Well, luckily, tonight was a clear sign that narrowminded single-issue voters like gun boy here were outnumbered by folks who realize that Obama isn't going to do a DAMNED thing about gun-control since he's got like 10 HUGE problems to deal with first. :) |
Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 558 Joined: 5 Feb 2008 | I did not vote for Obama or McCain, so I went with a third party, but this marks the first time in the last decade or so that the American public has actually attempted to regain their decency. Americuuhhhh, fuck yeah! |

I find it kinda funny that people think he will make an difference...throw anyone you want into this machine it won't fix it. The machine continues to break because of the human condition. It didn't matter who won both would not have made a difference. Just accept the chance and move on no ones lives will change through the actions of any man that is set in this figurehead position.
