A forum for cigar lovers.
4bob4:Saw this on another board and thought you all may enjoy. Much as it pains me to say this, I have to admit it…my Democrat friends were right. They told me if I voted for McCain, the nation's hope would deteriorate, and sure enough there has been a 20 point drop in the Consumer Confidence Index since the election, reaching a lower point than any time during the Bush administration. They told me if I voted for McCain, the US would become more deeply embroiled in the Middle East, and now, tens of thousands of additional troops are scheduled to be deployed into Afghanistan. My Democrat Party friends told me if I voted for McCain, that the economy would get worse and sure enough unemployment is approaching 10.5%. They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more "crooks" in high ranking positions in Federal government and sure enough, several recent cabinet nominees and Senate appointments revealed resumes of scandal bribery and tax fraud. They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more "Pork at the trough" in Federal government and sure enough, 17,500 "Pork Bills" showed up in Congress since January 2009..... I was also told by my Democrat friends that if I voted for McCain, we would see more deficit spending in Washington D.C., and sure enough, Obama has spent more in just 30 days than all other Presidents together - in the entire history of the good ole USA .... Well I voted for McCain in November and my Democrat friends were right...all of their predictions have come true!
PuroFreak:Ok, I'm am sick and fucking tired of being accused of hate speech everytime I say I disagee with something the current adiministration has done, or wants to do. I don't hate the people in power in our country. I don't dislike the President at all. I think he would probably be a hell of a guy to hang out with and have a beer with. I'd love to play golf with the guy given the chance. I disagree with most of his political views, but I by no means hate the man. When President Bush was in office and everyone was protesting and calling for him to be taken out of office and put on trial for War Crimes, it was called free speech and anyone who spoke out against the protesters were damn near lynched... Now why is it any different? I'll tell you why. HYPOCRISY! Plain and simple.

Now why is it any different? I'll tell you why. HYPOCRISY! Plain and simple.I couldn't have written it any better. People were going above and beyond just saying they hated Bush. How about George Lopez on national TV saying "F@ck you" to President Bush? Anyways, I do not agree with anything Obama does but it has nothing to do with his race. Race is the card for all the weak minded individuals to play though.I also think you should need to take an IQ test to be allowed to vote. All these people who said I voted for him solely because he is black or they wanted to be involved in making history. How ignorant is that? Just as ignorant as calling people racist who disagree with you.I saw this crap all the time when I was a cop. "You are just stopping me because I am black". My reply, "You are just saying that because I am white". Seriously take responsibility for your actions. If a black man is doing 60 MPH in a 20 MPH school zone grab your nuts, be a man, and admit you screwed up instead of using your race as a crutch.Now Obama may not be out there playing the race card but when he doesn't step forward to stop it from being played he is just as guilty of perpetuating imagined racism.
