O.o
If people here in Germany would take elections half as serious as you Americans do, then something could actually change here too, lol

Btw about Romney: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTCRwi71_ns

Good luck to the US! :)

Well, I'm a bit of a nut when it comes to progressive causes. Call me a Hippie, I won't mind. But, yeah, if everyone were as hot on the topic as me and my mate,  kanis are, we wouldn't have to worry about lunatics like Romney getting into the White House at ALL.

And, by the way, Obama has apparently won. WOOT! *is gonna check out the vid in the morning- gotta snooze, now.* It's off the dragon sleepy-bye for me!

Awr hehe and yesh =)
Hope ya slept well ^.^

lol no dice for me I'm afraid, I just got my power back now and am in no shape to go vote

Oh crap, yer on the East Coast, aren't you? *hugs you in sympathy* I hope Sandy wasn't too harsh with you folks. Something like 175,000 New York State people were evacuated, I hear? I'm hoping that you'll get to vote soon, and that they will be counted. Although, depending on your views of the matter, today was a good day: Romney conceded. Obama is still POTUS.

no evacuation lol, just a week of huddling around a fire trying to keep my nuts from freezing off till the power came back

BLUE BAWLZ! *is sympathetic, actually. Ouch* Dayyum. At least you guys are ok.

yupyup, all toasty <3

Oh you'd be surprised how this election is affecting parts of Canada. Big example, two high schools close to where I live were supposed to have gone to Ohio to see the Obama campaign there. However it this trip was cancelled, but I'm hearing different reasons. First one was that a concerned parent emailed a story about Obama's stance on abortion(these were Catholic high schools), and then recently another story came out saying that the students going were going to actually be working on the campaign x.x

Sadly, we have our own silly sects and propaganda machines, but hey, somehow, they don't scare me nearly as much as the loons down here do. O___o

I just found it ridiculous that the school board would actually do that. Seems like a stupid move, but then again they are hard core Catholics in that board, so it doesn't seem all that surprising. I would like to know which reason was the right one, but oh well, Obama pulled through in the end, though I was getting concerned early on when Romney had the lead, since I had a feeling he might end up screwing up relations with us in the Great White North or vice versa

I did!

YAYZ! *dances* Thanks, hon!

*Hugs!*

Already voted ^^

*shakes your hand in thanks for doing your duty* You rock, sir/madame!

But, you know... Canada's socialist programs make it so we can't spend the bulk of our tax dollars on outrageously priced military hardware and unlawful wars against nations suspected of harbouring gibbering puppet bogeymen. Think of the obscenely wealthy military contractors - whatever shall they do?

I LOVE my Canada! :D

I love my Canada... and I think I love you, too! LOL That had me howling.

I was lucky my state had early voting last week and I did that <3!

Thank you, sir, for doing duty for your country. *shakes your hand*

Sorry, love. I'm personally opposed to voting. Antipolitical an' all that. I don't feel the voting system is reliable/trustworthy anyway. Seen too much fraud swaying the vote and those responsible getting away with it. I will not participate in an unfair election.

Besides. Halo 4. ;u;

Well, I think you might be misinformed as to the amount of voting fraud there actually is, unless you weren't actually referring to the VOTERS committing said fraud, but instead to the politicians (well, the Big Money and corporations buying them, actually) doing the fraud, in which case, I just might have to agree with you at least bit on the fucked up way the system is set up. But, we need to vote to get our voices heard, because that is what we have as our current method of choosing administrators. If you don't vote, you are SILENT, son.

My two cents.

I meant the politicians, but some of the voters have been pretty douchey, too.

Silence is muffins. <3

LOL Halo 4. I didn't even know that was out, yet. *isn't a huge gamer, but really liked the first Halo game*

Halo 4 was released on election day. Kinda silly, but hey, it gives the non-voters something to do all day. ^_^

I did. Also got a flu shot. And gonna grab a shower here in a few minutes. The Good Citizenship Trifecta!

Fuck me, you rock. *high fives*

Voted this morning. Still dont trusst the electronic voting machines though. It sat there quite lonely (no one waas using it)

Mail-in ballot for us. Well, for  kanis I can't vote, yet. Not a citizen. Poop.

Show me just one politician who isn't a money-bought one...

Some are bought less than others, some even refuse to be "bought" at all and regularly vote against the loopholes the special-interests that donated to them wanted. Look around, you'll find them. When you do- VOTE FOR THEM. Track-record, my friend. Check up on that. You just might be pleasantly surprised.

'S why everyone voted Danny Williams here. He took over NL's PC party by promising everyone some sweet-ass deals [but telling everyone only vote me here, don't you dare vote for Harper nationally], got us said deals and ensured great things on the way, then quit because he accomplished exactly what he wanted. And he was already a millionaire when he got in, so he donated all his salary from premiering to charity.

Immediately after he quit, he bought a hockey team because he'd rather shag around in sports.

Danny's a pretty chill bro.

You know Murrah I actually like the Libertarian candidate, but know he doesn't have much of a fighting chance. But I think Obama will do us right. I voted this morning. Here's to hoping. Considering how badly I was belittled and patronized for my opinion because of who I was voting for I don't have much hope for my state, but there's a little sliver.

Please forgive my shudder at mention of Libertarians. I've read their propaganda and their stated goals. While I happen to agree with most of them on some level, the basis for those stated views are diametrically-opposed to my own view-points. Besides, Ron Paul (or was it Rand Paul- I frankly saw little difference, hence my tendency to confuse the two) gives me the fucking willies.

And, whoa- why would anyone belittle you for not agreeing with them, or voting for their guy? Wait, don't answer that, we all know many, many assholes in our immediate sphere. I should introduce you to the scary little Tea-Party stronghold I happen to live in here in sunny California... Yes, they exist here in a supposedly overwhelmingly Democratic state. Mountain people, go figure. Yeesh. If you voted for who I think you voted for, I will disagree on that candidate's ability and goals for the country, but dammit, I am NOT gonna rag on you for it. That's just bloody rude.

Now, if you voted, PERIOD, I'll shake yer hand. *gives it a thorough shaking* If you happened to vote for Obama, I thank you. Really. Romney scared the bejebus outta me. *shivers* I mean, magical underwear? White people being superior because they "sided with God" and are thus "white and delightsome"? Black folk are dark because they chose to stay neutral in the angel wars? God lives on the planet Kobol (Kolub, Krazy? I don't fuckin' remember the name of the fictional nonsense)? And males will attain personal godhood if they follow their church slavishly and get a planet of their own and a zillion buxom, blonde (and presumably stunned stupid) wives to father an entire race on? And women will get the everlasting joy of being some prick's chattal, along with however many other slaves- ahem- ladies, the man can get his greedy paws on? WTF? I seriously didn't want a nineteenth-century precursor to the fucking Scientologists as my President. Ugh.

So, thank you for voting!

Haha, sorry Murrah I wasn't clear. I just wish it had been between Obama and the Libertarian candidate that while I liked what I did read of him, I seriously can't even remember his name X3 At least then if it had been a close race I wouldn't have been scared to death of who was winning.

As to who I voted for I had the luck to vote for the winners! At least where it was a race between people. Even the senator and sheriff I voted for won. ^.^ Though our state still doesn't appear to have all the votes counted. Not that it much matters now. Unless someone starts crying foul. I swear this seems to happen every time.

I voted! Georgia may be a red state, but there was me, hubby and a friend at least trying to make it a blue state. :D
