I have received apologies from 2 friends for voting for Obama. That never happened before...

The day I heard Wright deliver his hate-filled, anti-American screed on S. Hannity’s radio show, I knew this guy was trouble. People ignored this clue - written in 50 foot letters and shoved under their noses - and voted him in anyway. They’re gonna regret this like Germans regretted Hitler.

One of my voice students is a very loquacious and precocious 8 year old Black Child. The family are big O supporters.

Yesterday, she confided to me that her mother’s business is failing, and that Mom will have to find a job, and things are looking very bad.

I told her to think carefully about why this has happened, and what has become of our Nation in the last six years.

Not me.

My relatives and in-laws who supported Obama and his gang are still for them.

Sadly, they will probably believe the next Democrats lies as well and vote for them.

I heard ‘em after the FIRST term began...

But then, they turned right around and voted for the slime bag AGAIN in 2012.

Their excuse? “Mitt Romney and Paul RYAN? - REALLY???”

Those that voted for him that now say they were wrong are still idiots. If they didn’t see through the man with all the rev. Jerimiah Wright tapes and just a brief review of his history, they are idiots.

It’s just like Axelrod now saying Obama was for gay marriage the whole time but lied about it. I was very easy to see through that if someone just paid a little bit of attention. It was easy to see the man would lie and lie and lie. Are these people that damned stupid?

We haven’t seen near the downside of the Obama years yet. We will be paying for this pos in office for at least a generation. He’s done far more to screw up the middle east than all our presidents since Jimmy Carter combined. He’s screwed this nation in more ways than I care to mention.

We’re all going to pay for this freak show being elected but I hope that those that put him in office end up paying the greatest price for electing the pos.

Idiots. A person has to be some special class of stupid to not see what a disaster Obama would be. Duped? Yeah, if you are brain dead stupid. Sensible people saw right through Obama.

I don’t know any. Family members and friends who supported him are posting all the wonderful improvements from ‘the best president since Clinton’.

I do know one person who has hard core Obama in 2008 in the primary (strong Obama, anti-war, etc), who is expressed overall hatred for the whole thing. They became cynical that no one is actually going to do what’s right. 100% that person will pull the lever for Clinton, Warren or anyone else on the ticket in 2016, so it’s no progress.

The silence is deafening in our neighborhood. Most of us are conservatives, but there are a handful of diehard libs who proudly displayed Obama signs in their yards during both elections. We all interact socially, and politics is rarely brought up in those settings but the Obama cloud hangs out there like a pregnant whale. We know who they are and they know we know who they are- Outwardly nice people stricken with a terrible self inflicted mental disease.

When uninformed, misinformed,ineligible, government dependent and downright ignorant people are allowed to vote and the choices presented to the informed and intelligent voters are unsavory candidates preselected by their respective parties, you tend to get bad results.

I am surrounded by well educated (whatever that means today - I mean 'capable of thought' whether they are encumbered by it or not) ... liberals. One, worked in DC all her life in PR and media, so is an intellectual. Another is a hippy type with money so can afford patently unworkable views since the consequences never affect him - he's a lifestyle liberal. His wife is a Buddha Liberal. I'm a Buddhist generally in my thought. That is NOT Buddhism, but it is cliche Buddhism. All of them - their remorse is expressed (or should I say unexpressed but implicity) by:
  1. They don't blame his failure on the evil republicans anymore.
  2. They don't defend anything he's doing anymore, including OCare.
  3. They look away and change the subject on anything political.
  4. No longer any cockiness when speaking of politics.
  5. It's mostly characterized by what an ashamed narcissist looks like. Too proud to admit anything, but clearly can't believe he could be wrong. So ... just sort of hides in the corner when the subject comes up. Since they can't literally hide in the corner - you see it in their eyes. Almost pleading with you not to pick a fight with them. True intellectual cowards, are they.
There is more - but I would say their silence is the sole expression of remorse. It's not really remorse. They don't yet regret or repent, they merely, like a confused man in purgatory, wander around with a zombie look, sure that there is an explanation, and yet neither their intellect nor hopey-changey hearts seem to find one.

No more cocky responses unbacked by facts. No more sneers. People diagnosed as delusional ... the are most at risk when reality forces its way in. This is a mild version of that. They are lost ... but still cling by a thread of hopeandchange.

I'm describing the one's who were already full out lefties. The middle of the roaders don't have much problem saying "well that was a mistake."

I ran into a liberal I worked with a couple of years ago and we talked for a minute. As we parted he said “You were right about Obama”. I was surprised.

I wouldn’t know...I’ve all but ceased any communication/interaction with any who voted/supported that POS for a 2nd time.

They’re too damned stupid and I don’t need the frustration of listening to lies and damned lies and having the possibility of that stupidity eventually rubbing off on me.

Sorry, don’t buy the Premise.

There aren’t any. All the complainers would Vote Obama in for a Third Term if they could.

They might be a little upset with The King, but they all think Obama really tried to help them out but those Mean Republicans like Ted Cruz stopped him because he is sort of Black. Obama is blameless because of his Compassion.

Besides, I have no respect for Idiots that would Vote for Obama not only once, but twice. They are either closet Socialists or they are dumber than a Box of Barbara Boxers.
They can’t take it back, so this is an exercise in futility.

They had their chance to right the wrong in 2012.
Too little, too late.

They thought only people like US would be the only ones to get screwed over when they Voted for Obama and now they cry. Boo friggin hoo.

Most members of my Democrat family are quietly devastated about Obama, but won’t say it out loud. He’s a huge embarrassment to them now.
