Re: Election results!!!
I was not too thrilled about either candidate but I do feel that this is a day of joy for many who in the past couldn't even sit in the same bus or drink water from the same tap and this is a day to celebrate that racism is dying everyday.It's not dead yet, but we are definitely evolving as humans.
Slowly but surely. Now let's hope Obama doesn't screw it up in the white house! LOL |

Re: Election results!!!
I can't say that I've felt strongly about either candidate. During the election I felt McCain was more erratic in behaviour partly I think because he was genuinely torn between reality and necessity.
Perhaps the PTB have a plan that involved ending slavery, ending segregation, promoting civil rights and enabling minorites and women that they have the right to lead. I've watched these candidates since the beginning run themselves into the ground physically and emotionally. Maybe it's a show but they still did it. Kudos to them and now we have to hold Obama to his promises. It's easy to sit and sneer but an amazing thing did just happen. |

Re: Election results!!!
everyone is so happy about Obama, they didn't notice a few disappointments.
California just approved changing our constitution to ban gay marriages, and voted no on both alternate energy Bills... and now for the really bad one... no more drinking on San Diego beaches... |

Slowly but surely. Exactly, what I was thinking. |

Re: Election results!!!
Gordon....when people vote they vote in good faith. When and if it goes wrong, they are also let down.
It is unfair to blame an entire nation for the actions of a few. And none of us seem to escape this type of sweeping generalisation. I am not American, but I feel that in electing Barack, they have demonstrated something valuable to the world. Don't knock them. Let's have some hope now |

Re: Election results!!!
so what does it mean for all of the couples that are already married in California, now that the constitution is being changed to say their marriage "can't" exist?
are we the first state to grant these rights and then take them away? The voters said no... The Judges said yes... Now the constitution is being changed to take away rights... anyone see this as alarming? Are all the other states going to do it to? Well heck, we might as well re write the Constitution of the US while we're at it... Last edited by Rocky_Shorz; 11-05-2008 at 05:08 AM. |

With that picture of Obama, it is like he is turning into Satan. LOL. How about that evil laugh? Obama.

Everyone who is already married will retain that marriage as it was performed while gay marriage was 'legal'. At least that's how I understand it. |

They should have just been happy with Civil Unions, now they've crossed the line and there is no turning back. Now it is in the constitution that they don't exist. any guesses how quickly all the other states will follow California's lead? |

Re: Election results!!!
Rocky,
Also they brought 2 more Military Bridgades to the country and I think the total number is now 4,700. I love how they sneak everything on us during Big events...don't you???! |

Re: Election results!!!
you are talking to someone in a Military town with 500,000 soldiers...
I'm afraid 4700 doesn't impress me very much... it's nothing to worry about... I'm glad they are coming home. |
