Dear Republican/right-leaning friends,
Yes, Barack Obama won another term in office. This means
that he will be the President for another 4 years. It does NOT mean that the
devil will open up earth and swallow America. Barack Obama is not the
Anti-Christ, nor is he hiding where he was born, nor was he ever a closet or
open Muslim, nor is he a closet communist/socialist/fascist who plans to put
his detractors in gulags to silence them while he forces your children into
pre-arranged gay marriages. Your candidate lost. That’s what happens in a
democratic republic: one side loses, and another side wins. It is not the end
of the world because your side lost. The hyperbolic emotion you feel? That is a
s*** taco, like the one that liberals had to take when George W. Bush was
elected, then re-elected. Claiming Obama is anything more than the man leading the country for another 4 years is silly...I guess you can say he's an a**hole if you like, but can we keep the insults to that? Besides, the Presidency is only 4 years long. The geriatric death
panels and weapon disarmament programmes and demon-run totalitarian city-states
that you prophesise would take a lot longer than 4 years to implement and get
running to that magnitude that you claim. He’s had 4 years, and has not so much
as conjured one Islamo-devil. It’s not going to happen. What WILL happen is
that he is going to retain his duties in the worst employment position ever, he’s
going to age another 10 years in less than a decade, and he’s going to endure
the same political bickering that he has since he first started politics while
trying to do whatever he can to lead this country in a better direction,
whether you think that direction is the right one or not.
Dear Democratic/left-leaning friends,
Yes, Barack Obama won another term in office. This means that
he will be the President for another 4 years. It does NOT mean that he gets to
steam roll over the House and the Senate and implement the agenda he promised
us back in 2008. We do not have a golden ticket to get everything we want now.
There is still a divided Congress, a right-leaning Supreme Court, and silos
full of money from shadowy groups who put out more false propaganda than a
Soviet era poster maker. Obama is head of the Executive branch. He cannot write
laws and run them through Congress. He can SUGGEST laws in a write-up, but it
is STILL Congress who works and passes them, and all he does is sign them and
enforce them. The President has the worst job in the world. He will not be able
to fulfill all your hopes and dreams, and if he fails at getting one or two
things accomplished, that doesn't mean he ignored your needs and spurned you. Look
at how
much he has done so far. Still, there is no way one man can get everything
you want done in 4 years, or even 8 years. Barack Obama is not Superman. He is
a human, just like you. Treat him like one, not a messiah. Hyperbole in the positive shouldn't get too ridiculous. Also, a victory lap
is always nice, but don’t berate your right-wing friends. Remember 200 and
2004? Remember those s*** tacos we had to eat? They are eating them right now,
and it when you gloat to them too harshly, it’s like dumping cod liver
mayonnaise on the tacos before they eat them. It wasn't the end of the world for us, and it won't be for them, but if you keep waving it in their face, it will feel like it. Don’t be a d***.
Dear Everyone,
Yes, Barack Obama won another term in office. This means that
he will be the President for another 4 years. Now, let’s all be honest with
ourselves: it doesn't matter if he’s a registered Democrat or Republican; when
you think that you are qualified enough that you can be the leader of the Free
World, your political party is “Whore”. At that point, you are so awash with
money from so many different places, there is NO way you could have gotten
there without bending on some of your idealistic principles. There WILL be
back-deals. There WILL be tit-for-tat (he he…tattooed tits. Yum). He will do his
job, and he will push an agenda, but let’s stop acting like the motivation is
solely because he believes so much in a certain cause; there is a secret backer
somewhere. This is the way the world works. I have friends who think there is a
secret society running things. Here’s a news flash: The Illuminati is MONEY.
THAT is what is running things. I hope that our President does as good a job as
he can in the remaining time he has, but I also know that he is doing what he
needs to in order to “pay back” those who got him into that position. This is
the way of our world. Because of this, if there is a cause about which you feel
so passionate that you pulled a lever or hung a chad or tapped a touchscreen
for the person who you thought could help bring it to fruition, then you need
to get up, get out, and do whatever you can to make it happen. Voting is the
first step. Now go act. NOW! Stop reading this!
Love,
Me.
