For dogs sake, can we have a day to mourn without having to make this about Obama?

[saracat]

The President still has a job. And just maybe a veto pen , if he can be persuded to ue it. We lost a lot of heros yesterday through no fault of their own in many cases.

1. He's President. So, no.

The buck stops where it stops.

5. Thank you. nt

4. it's part of the mourning for me. I'm in the anger stage

and looking for people to blame.

My list is long and the White House and their crappy communications are on it.

We lost everything in Ohio. Everything.

I need a couple days before I'm rational.

12. Ahem. I am in Arizona and we lost EVERYTHING.

All I meant is I am tied of the 2012 defense. I agree with you 100%

6. If he wasn't getting blamed for it that would be one thing

But if he is, then we get to talk about it if we want.

7. I just asked Chiquita and Moby and Biscuit and Mattie and they all said

NO!

8. It would be nice

But it won't happen. History has shown that this would happen, and I really believe that Bush and his gang of crooks also knew it would happen. Well maybe not Bush, but the "brains" of the republican party knew it would happen, and they used history to get the wins they took yesterday. All they had to do was keep the economy in bad shape and make the president look bad by painting him as a socialist, and all the other BS they put on him. They did a good job by voting NO on everything to make them look good when things didn't work and election time came along.

That along with the history of people throwing out the party in charge worked. Of course now "THEY" have to do something to make things better, and if they don't, well in two more years they will see the "tidal wave" hit them! They only have two choices, work with the president and get this country back on track, even though it will make him look good, or fight him as they have been doing, which will not accomplish anything because they have the power now to do something, they can't just say it's all his fault!

One other thing that we will see over the next two years is a whole lot of infighting within the republican party. The tea party "nuts" are going to try and take over the party, and the likes of Rove and other mainstream republicans will be fighting that all the way! They are already blaming the tea party nuts for keeping them from taking over "BOTH" houses, and Palin has already been talked about by these people and they DON'T want her running in 2012, nor do they want her tea party nuts telling them what they have to do! It is going to be a mad house trying to keep the inline, and when they start talking their insane ideas in front of TV cameras, it's not going to help the party one bit!

The way I look at it is it could have been a whole lot worse if the republicans had taken over the senate also. We now have two years to work on showing the people democrats are for the people, two years to show the country they mad a mistake, two years to find new democrats for run for congress in 2012. Two years to stand up for what is right and not cater to the special interest groups.

9. It has always been about Obama

The professional left have attacked him for 18 months, and look what they got


99.9% of all voters are lemmings, they buy the media spin and when the LEFT and right are all attacking Obama the lemmings believe he is the problem

[Peacetrain]

10. I am so damn mad right now.. Mourning will come later.. Kubler:Rosas

11. Tell that to all your peeps who are spending all day blaming him, and only him, for this.

:rofl:

13. Word.

14. I haven't said a word about him today. I could give a damn about him.

I worked my butt off to get good folks elected and did it despite family illness. I am grieving and angry. I could care less about Obama or 2012 today. I repeatedly said thus election should NOT be about him but in the end the GOP was successful in making it about Obama. In my state every ad was against Obama. Every single candidate ran against him. This election became a referendum against him.
