What have we done?

what in the FUCK is this nation thinking voting for a person like Barack Obama, who has had such questionable associations with America-hating churches and comes from a Muslim background, etc. I just can't believe what a blind move we have made. This man has proven nothing concerning how he can protect us when we are attacked by terrorists again, which we will be. he has NO experience. like it or not, we are still at war, for those of you who have forgotten. I wasn't nuts about McCain either, but we at least needed someone who could get us through the war instead of someone who is just going to pull us out of it. the rest of the world has got to be laughing their asses off at us right now.

    I would say not so much... oh wait.. someone told you that before....

    every other country in the world is probably thinking FINALLY these people got this one right after 2 disastrous elections!

    Get over it. We just gained respect back all over the world. America has spoken, very loudly. they have seen through the lies. This is a truly GREAT DAY for this nation.

    really, GREAT responses guys. still not one with the balls to tell me WHY I'm wrong and give me some real reasons why it's a good thing Obama got elected.

    What does his background have to do with it?? My dad comes from a catholic background...does that mean he rapes little boys?
    And of course he doesn't have experience, he was just elected. How can you have experience when you've never done something before. The only presidents who can claim they have experience are the ones that have been elected for a second term.

    I can assure you the rest of the world isn't laughing their asses off...more like a gigantic sigh of relief accompanied by a huge smile.
    Although I do tend to laugh my ass off at people who have views such as the ones you have stated here.

    Agreed. We FINALLY got it right. The Republicans fucked up greatly over the last 8 years. Change appears to be on the way and that is great!!!

    Isn't that amazing?
    As soon as Jon Stewart (yeah I decided if it was bad news I'd rather have a fun perspective of them) said that Obama had won, I felt relieved, cause I seriously think if McCain had been the next president, I would have definitely lost any hope in that country. But there's so much energy now, and everyone I talk to feels the same way here, it's more about Americans and their choice and will to change than about Obama being such a great option.

    so again, won't get tired of saying this: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

    Agreed, had McCain won, I sadly would have had to say the country I live in is the stupidest nation on the planet. Thankfully I don't have to say that, change is here!!!

    we beat ignorance, biggotry, fear, and hatred, while also electing an intelligent, even mannered person with strong judgement skills who will surround himself with strong individuals, no yes people, and if smart, will govern from the left middle.

    We did an amazing thing tonight, and to have given into the spin and fear would have been another huge failure in a string of failures.
