OBAMA is our 44th president.
That was an ass kicking that McCain just took. Thanks to George DOUCHEBAG Bush.
Man I hope this "change" really is for the better.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

It's funny: McCain's weakness with Republicans as a whole was he sided too often with moderates and democrats.
His weakness with Dems here was that he was "more of the same" of a guy he hated for most of his time working with him and vice versa.

God I hope things really change. Especially foreign policy wise. That should be the major focus of at least half the firs term... repairing the
bullshit the Bush administration broke internationally.

I seriously hopes he keeps talking.
fireside speeches once a week to keep the people informed with what they are working on.
I think it would do the people well to feel like they are actually still involved.

all politics aside, it is blowin my mind that this country has elected an african american as president.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Those happened preTV. We have news stations, the internet, etc etc. The president probably gets more airtime now, spread throughout the week, than
they did during the "fireside speeches."

Obviously, Iraq and Afghanistan are priorities, but aside from that, I disagree. Get cracking on domestic issues, first.

Best clip on the news this morning was a woman coming out of the polling station and said something along the lines of
"last time someone declared it was time for a change we had Hitler"
Seriously said that, Obama was equated to being Hitler...or atleast the threat of his changes. Guess she voted for McCain.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

after thinking about it more, it's a real possibility. i hope you and i are both wrong dave, but it's a possibility. hopefully whoever does try is
too stupid and gets caught very early on before they can hurt anyone.

good concession speech as well.
and i don't say that to be a dick.
generally, i like john mccain ok.
but the real john mccain, not the john mccain that republican handlers molded for this candidacy.
last night's speech was the most genuine and gracious thing the guy has said in months.
no division, no insinuations, no fear mongering.

Speaking from a somewhat educated view on what is really occuring day to day in the aformentioned countries, I must say I agree with both of these
statements to a degree. I think the economy is the primary focus right now, but these wars CAN NOT be ignored (especially Afghanistan) right now. We
are at a crucial point in Iraq as well and leaving too soon would be a slap in the face to everyone I served with over there and all who came before
and after me. We (the military) have worked to goddamn hard and sacrificed way too much to have it all tossed out by an idealist fishing for votes
from an instant gratification based society. With that said, I like alot of what President elect Obama has to say and I will serve him with as much
honor as I have served all my Commanders in Chief, I just hope some of what he said about Iraq in particular in the past was a bit of lip service. I
look foward to more political pressure on the Iraqi government, they need a swift kick in the ass to get them moving, and I do think Afghanistan
should be the focus as far as this war goes, it always should have been. I could go on and on, history was written last night and I, like alot of
others in this great country, am excited about the futures prospects. Today is not a day for cynics, save it for when it is called for. Oh, and to all
who thought the system would be rigged and never allow the underdog the chance..........you were and still are wrong.

Just about says it all. I am hoping, but not optimistic that the people of America will care about this next week now that the elections are over.
This generation is made of the most lazy people and most selfish. Thinking that "we elected change, now it's their problem. I did my part". Keep on it
if you really want change.

could not agree more with all of this. The statement about electing change and now it's their problem sums up what I perceive the American mindset to
be these days for the most part. It IS up to US to make this change happen. One of the main differences between our government and all the others that
existed before it was the notion of less governing involvement in processes, more poeple, less government. Let's get back to that.

What i'm not looking forward to -but,was startimg to feel last night - is the "favorite band" bullshit.
your favorite band all of a sudden gets popular...every jerk-off and their sister is wearing their t-shirts and singing their songs...
leaving you and a few elitist stalwarts all pissed off with the whole "I SAW THEM AT CBGB WITH 10 OTHER PEOPLE...FUCK THEM! THE DEMO WAS WAAAY BETTER
THAN THE NEW ALBUM....THEY SOLD OUT,MAN..".
just a feeling...
