I'm terrified for the future of my family.

The $.05 tax failed in Ascension Parish. Another win.

Guys, we don't need 57 threads about the election so I merged the ones we had. New ones will be placed here as well.

 

[CajunCracker]

How are you guys surprised by this?

The country is only half fools. I'm proud to be in the south, seeing the way the voting went.

If Obama can do what he did the last 4 years and still win re-election, then I do not see how any Republican can hold the White House again. Is there something, I'm missing. I am terrified about what the next four years bring.

I agree. I had planned to add two suites to our building and hiring another employee. With my taxes going up $10,000 this year that isn't happening. So the president is correct. I didn't build that. And as long as he is President I'm not.

I had hope the Republicans could pull off the upset knowing all the time there are too many in this nation that just want handouts . It seems they will get their will until the our creditors demand their payment . China is not far off from owning this the promised land that our founding fathers established and let the liberals squander away .
I talked my wife into voting this year to try to prevent Obama from being reelected. She kelp saying that our votes meant nothing in this election . The popular vote went to Romney from what i have heard and the electoral vote has put Obama back in as our dictator . I am very saddened but will prepare for the worst. May God have mercy on all all of us.

I am proud of Louisiana today, myself. Our collective voting trend, as well as A2 passing.

My apartment complex is all quiet. The Saints Superbowl win was FAR more annoying on the domestic disturbance front.

Sad day for our country and our future. We're screwed

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largess out of the public treasury. After that, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits with the result the democracy collapses because of the loose fiscal policy ensuing, always to be followed by a dictatorship, then a monarchy." - Misattributed to Alexander Fraser Tytler (1747-1813)

Wow! Had never seen that quote before. Powerful statement. Sad reality is that those who voted for 4 more years of the same foolishness don't comprehend that the resources don't exist for them to continue indefinitely. What happens when the promised benefits don't get delivered? It will be absolute chaos. Those who live off the government will revolt and rebel as soon as they are cut off. A day of reckoning is certain.
I am thankful that my hope is in the One who is called The King of Kings and Lord of Lords! My prayer is that the challenging days our nation will certainly face as a result of the foolishness of those who have chosen this ungodly administration will lead people to cry out to God in greater numbers in the days to come. I am praying for a Great Awakening for our nation as people recognize the consequences of living by man's foolishness rather than by God's truth. Having Jesus as the Lord of your life is far more important than who lives in the White House.
It is well with my soul!

Montana, Idaho and Wyoming are lookin' mighty hospitable about now.....could we move bayoushooter up there?

 

[RyanW]

My neighborhood is pretty quiet tonight, although my neighbors also all have jobs, so that's to be expected.

 

[blackboltss]

My complex is quite also...... Just another excuse to buy more guns and ammo
