On some forums, this would be shut down about now. On others, it would be met with disdain.
The nice thing about our forum is, we're more like a dysfuntcional family and as such, we're always going to have some things we disagree about.
That said, I know Joe and took his post in the humours vein
I believe it was meant
As we all recall, Bush (both 1 & 2 but moreso #2), took a tremendous amount of "Bubba Bashing when he took office and continues to this day to take hits on a regular basis.
For the record, I didn't support Bush or Mr. "O", and wasn't a fan of McCain either! I really thought and still do, that our political choices SUCKED this time around
However, since Mr. "O" was elected, I'm going to take a wait and see approach to the issues and watch what he does or plans to do very closely.
Hutch, you're going to have to face it, Mr. "O" is going to get a
LOT of criticism, is going the be the brunt of jokes (humorous or not) and unfortunately, there are still a lot of people that feel he is unqualified to handle the position. Some due to his race (a bad quantifier), others due to his opinions, beliefs and current/former associations, and yet others due to a lack of experience.
Only time will tell
Regardless of all that, lets try to get along, remember that we're
ALL Americans (that may come in handy one day) and try to keep a sense of humor about things.
Later gentlemen
Edit: BTW people, just keep this in the back of your mind...."People" are watching.
There have been more threats on this particular president elect than any other according to reports and they folks that do what they do are keeping an eye on a variety of sites and issues. I have a "friend" who is a "watcher." (and if I ever catch him here, I'm gonna ban his ass!) but...reports do go back.
There is going to be more oversight than usual this time around so simply stated... a word to the wise....for warned is for armed
