How the "revenge voters" won--and the vote for "love of country" lost.

[oreo]

I understand the sense of deep frustration, even disillusionment over the election result. However, I will always love America. I am not even ashamed of America. People have always easily been mislead by faulty ideology.

I am ashamed of America and they path they've chosen. In a few short years you won't even recognize what it took 300 years to build. It will be ashes. and there will be garbage scattered everywhere.

Irregardless of any "America To Come" I will defend the corner of her most relevant to me and mine, should such a need on the horizon rise. I was as well unhappy with the election result yet the status quo remains. Cups of coffee remain available at the local quickie stop; Ritz crackers still line shelves awaiting purchase, and the sky is as ever cieling above us. If the time for any action has arrived, I think it is the time for falling back; for redefining the borders of our own backyards and for worrying most about who lives within them. Morally, I will never compromise to the ideology of the party line espoused by the so called "winners" and that is sufficient personal victory for now.

I think Boener should let this January deadline--of the Bush tax cuts expire. I wouldn't fight it--it's time that ALL Americans pay their fair share--and as we know this expiration will be a slam dunk on the middle class of this country--some of whom are making 50k per year and have paid no federal income taxes in more than a decade--and bring them back to reality-.. The reality that there is no FREE ride. I would give Obama every single TAX HIKE he wants and let him hang himself with them. The cuts to the military and every thing else that is coming on Jan. 1st--let him do it.

This is why Carter didn't survive a second term and Obama did. As soon as Jimmy Carter got into office he cut the MORTGAGE INTEREST RATE DEDUCTION--and MILLIONS of democrats in this country got slammed dunked with higher taxes. They remembered that on election day--and gave Reagan a land-slide victory.

Then we need to start doing what we can to spit ourselves out of the system so when the system collapses, we can be in a position to restore the republic then. Because if the marxists or the nazis have the infrastructure then, we are in serious trouble.

Imminent collapse is on it's way. That's why I hope that the Republican house doesn't stand in the way of the Bush tax cuts expiring--and let the sequestration coming on January 1st--happen.

It's necessary--it needs to happen--and if we go through some pain for the next 4 years with DEMOCRATS paying more in federal income taxes they may actually WAKE UP to what the Democrat party of big government represents.

Agreed the 47% remark didn't help--but it was taken out of context--because Romney was talking about his tax plan saying the 47% of the working class who paid no federal income tax wouldn't be interested in his tax plan--but it was played very well by the democrat party and the main stream media.

Taken out of context? Really? Did he or did he not say "I will never convince them to take responsibility for their lives"? Oh yeah, he did. THAT is why the 47% was offended. Hell, I'm not part of the 47% and I was offended.

"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what," Romney said in the video. "There are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe that government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you name it."

"Forty-seven percent of Americans pay no income tax," Romney said, and that his role "is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."

What a knee-slapper. Keep up the Delusion. It will get you far.

Well, I must admit I was in total shock as to what happened on Tuesday night--and depressed a couple of days after. But several things have occurred to me--as to how the "revenge voters" won and how the "love of country" voters lost.

How the revenge voters won:

1. I know a couple of people--the (99 weeker's of unemployment) who have told me that they are much better off than when they were working for their pay. Getting unemployment checks--food stamps--being able to take their kids to the doctor for a total fee of $3.00 per visit--that really don't want to lose that. They are in fact enjoying this new taxpayer funded life--and really could care less about heading back to work. One them actually told me that they can miss 3 months of a house payment and then qualify for almost a 0% interest refi of their mortgage? I don't know if that's true or not--but they seem to be fairly certain of it--so they have purposefully not paid their home mortgage for the last 3 months. There are MILLIONS of these people that voted on Tuesday.

2. It's apparent that the other "revenge voters"--comes from General Motors and Crysler who (in the end put Obama over the top in Ohio.) The union auto workers--because their jobs were saved by taxpayer dollars came out in force in Ohio to vote for Obama. Another "buy your vote policy of the democrat party." Now be certain that myself will never buy any car manufactured from General motors or Crysler again--because I am now taking my "revenge." Buy Ford motors--they didn't get a bailout--they didn't need one. I am a small business person and I sure didn't get a government bailout.

NOW WHAT THE REPUBLICANS DID WRONG: How the 'love of country voters" lost.

1. During the primary season all candidates-because of the Tea Party--went balls to the wall against Hispanics in this country. Threatening to deport illegals--even ones that have settled into our society for decades. They were going to break down the doors drag them out and send them back. Romney even stated that during the primary season--and Rick Perry lost his bid for the nomination because he stated we needed to have "heart" when it came to Hispanics in this country. Of course Romney after winning the primary moved to the center and called for "self-deportation."

2. Then they moved into birth control contraceptives speak--with Newt Gingrich's announcement that Catholic institutions should not be forced (through Obamacare) to pay for something that is against their religious beliefs. Then we have Rush Limbaugh calling a woman a "slut"--and that's all we heard about for the next several weeks--and the "WAR ON WOMEN" campaign started. To add to this blunder--we had a couple of very old white senators--who made absurd comments about women who are raped. One stated that their bodies can shut down and they won't get pregnant and another who stated that if they do get pregnant from rape it was "Gods Will." So we have old white men telling women how things work when women get raped--LOL Of course both of these senators LOST their bid for reelection--and they deserved to lose.

Until the Republican party can get it together and stop focusing on gay marriage--birth control contraceptives--abortion--and focus on issues that are critical to this countries survival--they will continue to lose elections until they no longer exist. They also need to take a much softer stance toward Hispanics in this country--whom have settled into our society and lived here for decades. They must remember that G.W. Bush won the Hispanic vote during both of his terms--and the right wing of the republican party--has chased them to the other side of the isle.

This is how the worst President with the worst economic record in this nations history got reelected in this country. Barack Obama for another 4 MISERABLE years is what we get.

Obviously the 47% came out to vote for the worst President ever to sit in the oval office. And Romney was right they did vote for Obama. What does that tell you about the demographics of this country today? Unfortunately I know a few YOUNG people that are very capable of working--but with the handouts that they get from the Santa Claus President were GLEEFUL that he won reelection again. So they'll go find a job for six months and then become eligible for the 99 weeks of unemployment insurance that they have been living off of for the last two years.

HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN.

I call BS. You have to have BEEN working to COLLECT unemployment. And you had to have been LAID OFF or the business closed. And if they were laid off... why? So that the CEO can get another million added to his bonus from the extra profit?
