You don’t really think that will happen... dream on... the fix is in and Repubs will never again gain majority. The marxist/liberals will make sure that they will remain in power. Americans have given and adopted marxism.

I’m going to move some of my 401K at the end of the year and the rest in Jan.

We were just saying the same thing...and yup...we have family members too. Good news is...it’s only one set on each of our sides.

Kruschev was right. The US will buy the rope that it gets hanged with.

Yes, it must. I’m done with being polite.

We will never win seats again... The first 100 days of the Obama rule will see the institution of the Fairness Doctrine, and with the power the media has exerted (yes, they ultimately made this election by their choices of what to cover and what to ignore), no Republican will ever get their message out.

This was the last gasp, for the next 20 years. What will happen is the GOP will re-organize, and you’ll get RINOs and socialism-lite, a la the conservative parties in Europe.

I’m with you.

Freepers need to get busy putting their money where their mouths are and start boycotting the media that showed bias, their owners, and the businesses that buy adspace from them.

There’s a local bookstore. The owner is a nice guy, and he’s really struggling right now. BUT, nice or not, he is the type of guy with lefty stickers covering his car. He’s got a single Obama sticker in an obscure place in his shop. If I go in tomorrow and he’s crowing about Obama, I won’t help him out by shopping there any more.

Agree. Our best strategy is to sit back and let Osama and his Congressional cohorts over-reach, as they will, thinking they have a mandate to ram through their entire radical program. If the people of this country don’t rise up and slap them down in ‘10 and ‘12 for their over-reaching, there’s no hope, anyway.

I’m going to cancel mine tonight online. And no IBD, at least for a while. Also cutting down if not eliminating charitable contributions. If they ask why, I’ll tell them they can get it from Obama.

Won’t make any difference Obama will subsidize all minority businesses with your tax dollars.

The only way to choke off this cancer is through a tax revolution.

The problem is getting more than a handfull of Freepers engaged. We need millions of people to not pay taxes.

Also Look for the celebration posters and signs in businesses tomorrow.

The ghetto will still be the ghetto in 2012 and the same people in the ghetto will still be in the ghetto. Nothing will change other than the Bush tax cuts will expire and everyone who pays taxes will be paying higher taxes. Those who never paid taxes will make more in welfare than some that pay taxes and work. Taxes for those who employ others will raise at least 3.6% meaning MILLIONS and BILLIONS in new taxes and also meaning either prices rise substantially for products or companies fire people to make up the difference.

I feel exactly the same way. I am so angry at people. I've lost relatives, I told off someone I hardly even know today and if I never see him again I won't give a damn. You're right..this is like brother vs. brother.

But, we have to keep things in their right place and yes, the sun will come up and life will go on. I'm going to sign off from Freerepublic for awhile..I'm just spent... I have to recharge. I don't know if this country can ever be the same again. I don't...we are just not that country that Rush talks about..it's changed...Remember, at the core we are all just selfish animals...Religion is what keeps us good...without it...we're nothing.

I'm diving into my new religion starting tomorrow. I'm done with politics for now. The only thing we really have control over is our own actions...be good, love your family, and live your life in God's glory.

I don’t intend to punish businesses but I told the wife tonight we are hunkering down. No major purchases for the next four years. All money is to go towards savings and bills. We are in for bad days ahead.

No matter what our loss, we DO NT contribute to an Obama admin.

I got money to loose, OK? Anyone else?

Don;t give to this admin.
