Ok this may make me unpopular but I just feel I need to let it out. I understand everyone has their own opinions on which president should have won and could have done what, but regardless of that, it is what it is. I don't feel like it's right to be so hateful or bash the guy you weren't rooting for. If people say these things on facebook, what do they say in front of their kids? Some of the things I have read all day could downright scare a child. We ARE a country regardless of who holds this title, WE as a country are strong and need to work together and be kind and respectful. I'll put it out there I didnt vote. Honestly neither was one of my top favorites for a president, so I of course have no room to talk (plus the last presidential election I voted in, shortly after I was called for jury duty then stuck as a juror on the Enron trial everyday for almost five months!) I think I probably would have voted for Romney if I had to choose, but what is done is done. I cannot stand people living off the government and getting things free, even when I was a single mother I never accepted any government help. That being said people did that before Obama and I'm sure will always continue. I just wish people could turn their hatred and disgust into some kind of positive message to portray for our future generations 4951

@ruk72:
 
I know Emoticon I guess that's what just bums me out, my ten year old was so interested in this whole election and gave me reasons why he liked Romney and why he didn't care for Obama, then today he asked why is everyone so mad and saying mean things...I know our country could go to **** (not sure if I can say that lol) but I also know our country has been thru alot and as overcome alot, so I guess just because I'm a glass half full person, I'm choosing to HOPE we as a country can improve all around 4951

People who label democrats as wanting a free ride, are narrow minded.. 
 
People who bash unions, are jealous and narrow minded or prefer keeping others down.
 
Ex.. I listen to Walton and Johnson radio show.. There head guy believes having collective bargaining isnt good for workers...  And the right to work is great becuz you dont have to be forced to pay union dues..
 
Let's break it down, I'm sure when this radio host does his contract for his employer he hires probably a hot shot attorney to review contract and strike a deal.. That is collective bargaining.
 
Also, he claims why beforced to join a union??? And pay dues.. Say you pay $20.00 a week for union scale wage..  What's is that if your making $4.00 and hr?
 
In other words now republicans will focus in latino's they better learn to share the wealth or the republican party will be done..
 
Anyways the whole thing will be a flip in 2016.
 
And dont fill your head with republican BS. 4951

Yes. Do I think he's a jerk...er, nevermind.But I'd never spout some of the ____ I've heardread 4951

My husband works for exxonmobil and he is union and pays union dues every paycheck. I guess honestly I really can't consider myself a republican or a democrat, I see plus and negatives from both parties. I know just as many people who claim to be republicans but live off the government in some way shape or form, so I definitely don't think it's just the democrats. I just have issues with people who "cheat" or "abuse" the system when there are handicap or elderly people who could use the help. I think way too many people in my generation (I'm 29) feel like everything is owed to them, and hey if we can find a way to not have to work why not do it. I was not raised that way, nor will my children. My husband works his butt off and takes as much overtime as he can possibly get to ensure my kids have the best they can have. I to work hard everyday and never want my kids to feel as though things are just handed to them, but I personally don't really feel this issues should all fall on the president.

Nice is good, and even if someone chooses to have negative things to say about someone, I just wish they could watch when and where they say it. Everyone will preach about the children now are the future of our country, well what are these kids going to grow up thinking when they can turn on any computer,tv or radio and hear horrible things about a ONE person representing our country. We all represent our country!

@Horsemagic:
 
Yes! Just downright hateful things, and many being said by people who claim to be Christian people. I briefly looked at the other kingwood website and people would post how the world was doomed, there was no hope, stock up on this and that...I mean really, I pray it never comes to that (I think it would take much more than one president to put us in that situation, but just crazy I cannot imagine if peoples children over heard that how scary it maybe 4951

You know what irks me about the Obama bashing...the jerks that attack his wife, Michelle Obama, saying how ugly she is, etc.  Seriously, grow the F up.  I do not think she is ugly.  Some are so immature, they have to attack in this manner?  How is that even a valid opinion? 4951

  Things Liberals Hate Liberals must truly believe we are an awful nation to want it changed so much. Everything that made it great is not "good" enough for them. The one system of government that has consistently shown itself to be the best "Capitalism" is not good. They seem to believe that they can defeat history with the idea that their forms of socialism and communism are better. The only people truly hurt by those two political ideologies are the citizens. That includes you liberals. Do you really want your children and your grand children to wake up under a tyrannical America? Is this truly your dream 4951

Yes I have seen many of those to, and my eyes it's just a form of bullying and reinforcing childish behavior in adults. 4951

@mardigrasman:
I definitely wouldn't consider myself a "liberal" by any means. I just think if you really look closely there is a fine line that really separates all categories in one way or another. Oh well what is done is done and I know myself personally will just continue to install in my sons for them to grow up forming their own opinions and no matter what always having respect for their country, their fellow citizens, their leaders, the military, firemen, policemen, because no matter what it takes all of these individuals to make this country the country we are all blessed to be in

You don't have to say anything nice about him, about Romney, about the welfare recipients about the wealthy recipients, you won't hurt my feelings at all lol. I just wish some comments could be censored that are available for younger kids and teens to see. 4951
