silly me and I thought we are all Americans here and loyal to the American flag. We should never allow the south to create economic policy. They have always only cared about their region. The south's contribution to our economic strength(industrial revolution and the information age) is negligible. Their idea of an economy is stealing jobs from the north with cheap labor(3rd world mentality). A famous bumper sticker seen in the south-"American by birth southern by the grace of God". You would never see that anywhere else in the country. No region put's itself above the country. Please secede.

fyi, are you sure you want to sing that song,a jew wrote the song and n****r made it fanous

The irrational hatred of our President

I just finished playing golf with a friend. Seemingly normal guy but I know he is very conservative.He said he was mildly surprised at Obama winning but he is always saying he has never run a business.Typical garbage. I never notice these people ever questioning that Reagan never ran a business. That being said I brought up Patreus and the "Bengazi" issue was front and center. I could just tell that he wants to eventually use this to impeach Obama.

There must be nights when Michelle is so down to know that so many people hate her husband yet she powers through. This irrational hatred is so overwhelming. I can not think of a better more giving person than Barack. He is everything I would want might kids to grow to be like him. To embody his kindness. Barack is a special person and I am so proud he is our President.

Thank you Ronald raygun

you destroyed the republican party. I used to really hate you but I am reconsidering that emotion. Thank you for using the southern strategy and inviting the christian right into your party. The RWNJ's finally took over and 30 years later your party is now an uneducated bunch of buffoons located in the stupidest states in the U.S.
Thank you Thank you thank you. you done well

We are a center right country

I heard this last night while I was enjoying the whining on Fox. WE ARE A CENTER LEFT COUNTRY. We have won the popular vote in 5 of the last 6 elections. Anytime I get into a political discussion with any repub, I will remind them of that and watch their head explode.

Even sweeter than I thought

Heilmann just said the Romney's could not believe that they lost. They were clueless. What I would pay to see a video in the room as the returns were coming in. Thank you all for coming out and voting.
This is the sweetest win ever.

Romney files amended tax return

Willard Romney has filed his amended 2011 tax return. He will now be receiving an additional 2 million check. His final words to reporters were "Fuck You America"

The community organizer organized a community

It has been a long time coming. I remember when Reagan opened his 1980 campaign in Philadelphia, MS and declared states rights and from that point on I despised him. Inevitably, though this is what has killed the republican party but it took 30 years. Reagan also invited the christian right and the seeds of their demise was planted. Even though Clinton was elected the world stayed the same. He attracted many people but he never received 50% of the vote. White people were 87% of the voting population in 1992. Gore and Kerry were terrible candidates and finally someone came along who was young and vibrant and understood and related to a new generation.

Demographics have changed and Axelrod,Plouffe and Messina understood the new technology and the new social media. They built a party and a campaign that spoke to the new people and excited them. It is now 2 elections that they have captured the youth, women, Asians, Hispanics and of course the African Americans(old reliable because that all know the southern republicans still wished Jim Crow still existed). If we get these groups to vote a third time the repubs are done for a long time.

The repubs will be a small regional party. It is truly ironic that the "community organizer&quot as repubs so derisively called Obama) organized a community for the long haul. Obama wants to be a transformational president. Reagan transformed us into a greedy, non caring selfish country and Obama wants us to care about all. A welcome change.

The North and intelligence are winning. Notice that the repubs have all the states that historically never valued education.

Rove is done- may we never hear from him again

The "genius" didn't deliver. He will never be able to raise money again. He was always overrated. He won one count it one national election.
