Greaser I don't think anyone is more disappointed than I am.

I am more disappointed in what happened in my state than anything else. The rest is just pouring salt on a wound.


I have to say though I can't afford to sit around and pout.

[color:"red"]I can and will because if I act on what i feel right now I will be in a bad way. [/color]

We survived the past 4 years and we will survive the next 4. I'm not saying it will be easy or pleasant.

[color:"red"]Its not just the next 4 years this damage will most likely take our lifetime to fix.
[/color]

For the most part I will go about my daily life adjusting to the changes that have been forced on me.

[color:"red"]I refuse to react this way I fought to defend freedom just as you do and the people I fougt for threw it away like it was trash just for a free ride.
[/color]
Realistically it has caused me to become ashamed of my favorite state and I will be looking for a place that more closely resembles my values when I retire.

[color:"red"]there wont be any left thats the problem.[/color]

I have no choice but to tuff it out here since I have nearly 20 years at my current job and 7 more until I can pull the plug.

[color:"red"]I have 13 but most likely there will be my civic duity to do when I should have been able to, we have to pay for the ones that wont.
[/color]
a country to protect.

[color:"red"]Not the country I signed up for, and the constitution that you swore to protect will dissapear also.
[/color]

Nothing about me has changed and no one can do a thing to change who I am or what I am about. [color:"red"] Nothing has changed about or in me either but I am now considered the enemy because I will not be lead down this path quietly. [/color]

Even with all that said. I have a family to support and a country to protect. Nothing about me has changed and no one can do a thing to change who I am or what I am about. I will do my best to be the best Father, Husband and American that I can.

hah! You are cracking me up today Randy! I will tell you, I placed a bet with Bachmans son...I thought Romney would win and he called it Obama with 300 electoral votes...pretty close read by him. Now i owe him lunch!

I was mostly frustrated with the people last night more than the results, I had higher hopes for my fellow countrymen.

Psyop, you are right and a lot of people have a hard time accepting that when your choices are only the left hand puppet or the right hand puppet they are both attached to the same clown pulling the strings. Illusions of freedom are good enough for many though, as long as they have the latest gadget to tinker with so as not to get bored, instead of picking up a book to enrich their gray matter. Those who can look past the divisive distraction method to see the bigger picture usually tend to plan ahead enough to be ready for most scenarios, or at least able to adapt to them easier. Food, bullets, gear, etc is right. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
