Who ya gonna vote for?

[cariad]

Hemodoc...please stop complaining about your tires.  If you have not learned how to change a tire by this age well then you have to pay someone to do it.  You said it was a simple rotation which means that the tires were already mounted and just needed to be switched out. The tire shop saw you coming from a mile away.

Marc, Gwyn said exactly the same thing when I read him the tire bit. Gwyn's exact words were "He was taken."

Rerun, I was saying it sounds so negative when hemadoc refer to Obama supporters as "You Folks". It is as if he is Trying to insult. It is OK to agree or disagree. America made their decision and the bottom line is that President has 4 more years to run this country as he sees fit. If there are some who don't like it, get over it, again America has spoken. the world is changing, in with the new ands out with the Old.  Truth be told our younger generation can't be fooled into thinking that the old views that use to run this country is valid today.  Look at the stats, our young generations want change, young and old females want change, all races. The majority who voted for Mitt was older males and married older couples who's vote was not enough. I truly wish that both parties would come together and support The American People. Stop creating problems and create solutions that All can benefit. the older generations need to open their minds to change, but if they choose not too, it still does not matter because as this election has shown, you are outnumbered, again, America spoke loud and clear.

We got our first snow on November 8 and the lines were so long at Les Schawb that my brother came and switched out my summer tires for studs.  So, I don't know of the new regulation.  Les Schawb usually does it for free because I buy my tires there for a pretty good price for sure.  But, I had to stand out in the garage and freeze instead of in a nice warm tire shop with free popcorn and coffee.  I don't blame you Peter.  Have someone else do it.  Too bad you didn't know up front so you could have made your decision.

Unless you have a shop like my dad did you can't just buy tires at Costco and spin and balance them yourself.  You can check tire pressures yourself.  It should not be some government regulation.

It wasn't loud and clear!  Look at all the red states.  America is pretty much divided.  We didn't get every vote only the ones that took time to go vote.  I know several people who wanted Romney but aren't even registered.  Idiots!  Some people are happy with a roof over their head and food and some heat.  Wait until that is taken away like in Syria and see what happens when people become desperate.  Look at the East Coast.  Those people are desperate.  We will see how they vote once they are finally dry and warm again.  (2016)

Like Peter says... go for it for the next 4 years and stop blaming Bush.  Just do it.  If in 4 years the debt is down and I still have a roof over my head I may say "good job".  But, I don't think I'll stand down to immoral thinking. 

Isn't saying old white males kind of racist?  I think it is.  I would never say Old Black Males without thinking it would offend someone.

I Voted for President Obama because of his views and not because of his race. I have retired from one job and getting ready to retire from a second job by choice.  I am financially secure and don't need handouts, and for those that do need a little help whether it is food stamps, medical or whatever, I am so thankful there is help out there for those in need. The rich has benefited long enough and it is time for the less fortunate to get some much needed help. Mitt said himself that he didn't care about 47% of the American people.  Guess what, that 47% prevented him fro winning. That 47% showed him what they thought of him and sent him back to Boston. No matter how many points was between the two candidates, the best man won. Get over it.

Rerun, I am not a racist and I am repeating the stats, I will change my wording to say the majority that voted for Mitt according to the exit polls were older men and older married women.  Same ending. I would never try to offend anyone and you will have a roof over your head in 2016 only because Mitt will not  get a chance to make the world suffer and the rich get richer. People can eat even if is with food stamps, people who could not get medical will be able to do so.  The middle class has suffered for a long Time and it is about time we get a much needed break. I pay over$20,000 in taxes a year and don't get a refund, darn, since the rich has to pay more taxes now, heck maybe I can reap some benefits. The middle class has been hit hard over the years, We the middle class need a break. mitt was not giving us a break, he just wanted to make the rich richer, but his scheme did not work.

That sounds better to my conservative heart.  Thank you~

And you forgot bible thumpers, and the holy rollers, and the military unless they didnt get their absentee ballot.

Lisa, Military Officers spoke for Mitt, Military Enlisted spoke up for Obama. The officers don't have to suffer like us enlisted folks. The enlisted military stepped up., thank God there are more enlisted than officers.  I can't speak of how many religious folks stepped up, I try to stay way from religion since so many people re sensitive.

Rerun, as I explained in the other thread, this is not a new regulation (enacted under Clinton, refined and rolled out under none other than Bush) and does not force the consumer to buy anything. The regulation is 12 years old and has nothing to do with Obama.

Dear Wat,

If you folks that voted for Obama want the GOP to relinquish standards and just go along to get along, us old folks as you call us may simply understand that we shall all stand before God and give account of everything we have done in our bodies whether good or bad. If that seems old fashioned and out of step with the rest of the world so be it. Here it may be out of place, but in the world to come my friend, God does not change. Thank you for your advice to just give up our standards and morals, but no thanks, especially for political expediency.

Jesus lived in a despotic dictatorship that had conquered his nation. He did not go out and protest corrupt governments and neither shall I.  You folks won the election, go rule and get on with it, I am already resolved of the truth of the BIble that all of these things shall come to pass as written thousands of years ago.

Politics and the shifting winds of public opinion are not where I gain my own moral compass. If that is what you folks that voted for Obama recommend we go, then shucks, you can have control of this country. You won the election, you may or may not win future elections. How quickly you forget what happened in 2004. But placing my own moral compass in the shifting winds of public opinion is not a virtue at all my friend. If we have to suffer under what we consider oppressive regimes, so be it, bring it on. That won't bother me in the least since politics is not my god nor my provider. God alone is my refuge and my provider. Hopefully you may learn that in the future but just going along to get along won't get you there my friend. Good luck if that is your philosophy of life. You may end up traveling a road you really didn't want to go to.

After Obama's successful second term I am looking forward to eight years under President Clinton.

Oh, my! I can't help but picture the uncontrolled GOP fury that would follow a Hillary Clinton election. It will make what we're seeing from conservatives today look like a model of good sportsmanship.

The way this nation is digressing, that is not outside of the realm of possibilities. In any case, you folks won the election, go rule and enjoy your hour.

[Whamo]

I voted for Johnson.  I didn't like Obama or Romney.
