    I suppose this is how capitolism dies, with thunderous applause and open arms to socialism.

    Stop being so dramatic...his redistribution of wealth tax policies will never pass...that was not (in my book) a good enough reason to not vote for him.

    Still though, that is still not as bad as a peer of mine who did not vote because he believes Obama will be sworn in on the quaran.

    yeah...try the former president of your board of directors insisting that women will now be required to wear a burqa

    I no longer wonder why we are so "terrorized".

    I would think that would be illegal but maybe not? This election has make me nervous beyond belief, I believe that there are other people in this country who are better fit for the presidential elect then both McCain or Obama. I can only hope that Obama will prove to everyone who has faith in him that they had reason too. If not hopefully someone will be able to repair the damages in the next 4 years, that might be enough time for the GOP to repair their image and get elected next time.

    How bout his 25% reduction in the Military? If that happens, I'll be out of a job for the second time this decade!

    and you don't think this will have a negative impact on the economy? (not to mention future defense capability, with a strengthening China and unstable N. Korea)

    oh I am not a fan of these cuts at all more because of Iran than because of N. Korea or China. I dont necessarily believe that this will effect the people involved in the cuts, jobs wont necessarily be lost, possibly moved* but not lost

    No offense meant, guys, but it really is striking to me just how many things conservatives are afraid of. No matter what happens, somebody on the right is telling us we're right on the brink of disaster.

    I think America is a good deal more durable than that. Besides, I just don't have the energy to be in siege mode all the time.
