Seen Any Buyers Remorse Yet?

[red states rule]

Got this in an email.


It's my opinion today that many Americans will soon (probably already) be in remorse for the mistake of voting for Obama in 08.
Remorse because of the reasons that they voted for him in such numbers to get him elected.

Reasons:

To pay the Republicans back for their stupidity in the past Eight years.
I guess this one is about the worst reasons, but one that was used many times.

Change: Also a ridiculous one, because the voters don't yet know what it means. We live in the "most wonderful" country in the world and these folks want it changed. ?

Bush hating: People on the left, since the Vietnam War have allowed a terrible hate to fester very deep in their insides against America because of Vietnam. I suppose the last two wars made it so bad, that their hate has consumed them and caused them to hate America as never before. maybe these haters will soon be able to stop hating America, for the payback they have desired will finally be paid. America, under Obama, will become a "third World dictatorship", likened only to the rest of the socialist nations that bow to any entity that barks at them. France being a perfect example.

Guilt for the past: millions of Americans have kept guilt in their hearts for years for the past, but weren't even here to participate. America will be made now to pay.

Now that Obama is elected I won't have to pay to fill my "gas tank" Kool-Aid glass or my mortgage again. Follower of Obama. Who says the dead can't help elect a dictator?

lol....we haven't even taken delivery yet....you got to wait till people take him out of the box and start playing with him.....the parallel is more like a child's Christmas toy....once the kid realizes his Transformer doesn't really fly by itself like it did on the commercials, he begins to lose interest......

But the reaction of Wall St and the business community is very telling. What will the Obamabots do when they learn they will STILL have to make their house payment and pay for the gas they put in their cars?

I voted for Bush and wound up regretting it, bad. The people that voted for Obama were all under the impression they were electing a God, and that he is going to work wonders. I don't think so. If people don't end up regretting voting for Obama, then they were just as stupid when they voted for him as they will be later.

The thing that brought the liberals I know over the edge is the "forced volunteerism"--anything forced is not volunteerism, it's forced labor.

The talk about the government taking over 401K's is not playing well with them either

But just to answer your question, is there going to be any buyers remorse, I think the answer is damn sure there's going to be. There is already.

Unless you look at things like OCA. :D

Anyone who denies that George W. Bush did not cost the Republicans a significant number of votes this election is fooling him/her self.

P.E. Obama ran a good campaign and hopefully that will play out in his Presidency, but the election sans President Bush would have been a hell of a lot closer.

Like I said...Obama beat McCain in the popular vote by a hell of a lot more votes than Gore beat Bush!

Since only about half of those who could've showed up to vote actually did so, you have little more than about 1/4 of Americans agreeing with you.

But you go ahead and enjoy your alternative reality....It's pretty much par for the course from the Obammy cargo cultists now.

That new car smell will wear off as the economy continues to tank under the tax and spend liberals

but my grandparents in Illinois were big cribbage players too. They played two games a day every day for 15 years... and they kept track of their running score. My grandfather had been down by as many as 100 games, but came back to tie the overall game score... and died of a massive coronary an hour later!

They folks know on Wall Street know higher taxes, bigger government, more deficit spending, and more regulation is on the way

Unlike you, they see things int he light of day and do not higher their blinders on

The Dow is an indication of the economic future - and is does not look good

Jimmy Carters second term is heading straight for us

It is a fact Virgil. The pending economic failure is based on basic economic principals - unless Obama goes back on his promises to raise taxes and increase government spending

So many were completely fooled with Obama's words and eloquent speeches. Soon they will learn that his "change" will be a complete way of life they never knew before. That change will be coming out of their own hard earned pocketbooks and straight into Obama's big bank account.

Mark my words, the next four years will be very interesting and not like anything people imagined it would be. But, keep drinking the Kool-Aid, because you people that voted him in will go down with the ship as well as all other Americans when the ship sinks. It has begun a slow leak already.

mark your words?:laugh2: I have been marking your words for four years, RSR... first off, hardly any of them are "your words" and then, most of the time they have been wrong. Oh..and now that the election is over, you officially ARE a welcher. A democrat in the white house, increased majorities in both chambers....just exactly what we bet $500 on. You lose!!!!:poke:

And hey...remember when you were predicting such success for Rudy? :lol:

Now you are changing ths subject - damn those facts got in way again Virgil:lol:

You do get that his plan will have big and small businesses fleeing the country to protect their own interests, and all those jobs will go with them. Additionally, issuing social security cards to illegal aliens is a real smart move Finally, raising taxes during a recession only serves to worsen the problem.

Take a look at MI and the state of its economy. The worst governor today (Granholm) is one of Obamas economic advisers. If you call that bright I would hate to see what you consider genius.

the FACT is that there is no correlation between the election and the stock market. Any suggestion otherwise is bullshit speculation and you know it.

I disagree with your assessment of Obama's plan and we'll just have to wait and see.

I think it is really sad that you seem to be hoping for economic failure in America just to advance your party's political future. Party over country for you, eh welcher?

The FACT is Virgil, Obama has set a record less then 24 hours after winning - the biggest post election drop of the Dow EVER

The economic failures I talk about is based on Oama and the Dems own promises and polcies they have outlined

His policies will not create jobs. Instead, there will be tremendous job losses. Almost all new jobs last year were created by small businesses. People don't realize that the small businesses must take their profits and reinvest them for the business to flourish. People are already being laid off.

Everyone likes to bash the fat cats, but they create jobs, create businesses, etc. Obama will end up raising taxes substantially. I'm sure you heard Obama say he'll give a $3000 tax credit to a company hiring a new employee. What he failed to mention is that that amount does not offset the extra cost of having an employee. For instance a $50,000 employee may actually cost $60,000 or more per year depending on benefits, etc. A $3000 tax credit is not an incentive to hire.

But being a liberal hack the last thing you are interested in in facts and basic economic prinicpals

I dismiss your interpretation of "basic economic prinicples" as your interpretation...your interpretation is not fact. Paul Krugman, who just won the Nobel Prize for economics, thinks differently that you do.

We'll see how well the economy is doing in two years. I, for one, believe that it will be better...and I hope it will as well. You clearly think it will be worse...I understand that. What I don't understand is your apparent desire for the economy to fail. that seems to prove the fact that you do indeed put party over country.

If there is buyer's remorse, we won't hear about it. The media will paint everything Obama does in the best light possible. Think of how this election was manipulated by ACORN and the media. Where was the media outrage over ACORN? Over Obama's associations? They elected him, and they cannot afford for him to look bad in any way.

Seeing as the majority of main stream media is tanked for Obama i would imagine that we will be hearing how every misstep Obama takes is some how Bushs fault. In fact im already hearing Obamas choice of Rahm is Bushes doing

and you will join the media in making excuses, inventing lies, and blaming everyone except your beloved Dems for the failure of liberalism
