BellaOnline Forums News and Politics Independent Parties Obama! Obama!

The forum is the Independent Parties forum - if you look underneath each post's title you will see the name of the specific forum you are in.

That part is not your fault, this discussion more rightly belongs in the Democratic forum, not the Indpendent parties forum - the discussion should have been started there.

Of course you have free speech, but we also ask that people are polite and do not attack one another one here. It is possible to state one's opinion withou resorting to attacking someone else.

Although I do appreciate you saying that you did not mean to do so and apologizing for it.

This election was a very emotional one.

This is an interesting point, Michelle. But, I wonder...since the Independant's vote for Obama was 52% (18 million) could Obama's election, though he is a Democrat, be officially supported via discussion on the Independant site (sans Obama non-supporters?)

This is an interesting point indeed. I think Independents could happily talk about how Obama fits into their viewpoints, or not.

But that doesn't seem to be the case here?

Hm, yes I do think so, Jilly. But what about Obama "attackers?" I don't know, but it appears that most attackers are of the Republican Party...?

LOL, Shay

I'm just trying to keep Cynthia's forum from turning into the same powder-keg that the other two political sites have morphed into!

She's the only political editor that hasn't left! I wanna keep her here.

LOL, I hear you Michelle! What to do in times like these?

JENY, Jeny, jeny, I just love what you have to say. You have every right in America to say all that stuff you said. It personally sounded like a lot of ranting and rambling. But you go girl. I bet you felt a sigh of relief when you finished typing all that stuff and blew your fingers to cool them off. You probably had a stream of sweat falling on the keyboard too. I can just imagine how great you must have felt. I am so grateful that BellaOnline has this avenue for you to vent. It so good for the soul to vent, don't you think. Now that you have gotten that off your chest, cool down. I betcha don't want to leave the country now, do ya? I'm not sure who would want your kind around. I can think of some places but I'll leave that up to everyone's imagination.

I really respected John McCain and Sarah Palin for being gracious in defeat. I'm not sure they knew they had a bunch of weenies following them. I'm sorry I mean winers. You may be right about the darkest time in America. There are more interracial couples than ever before and no signs of it stopping. The right thing for America is to head in the direction of free college education and health care for its citizens. Considering we pay taxes for services, these are the services I wished were afforded to everyone. Don't be fooled into thinking you are not good enough for these things. I think you are. I just love your ranting and rambling. They would send you to a doctor, psyche doctor that is, and he would just give you the choice of the blue pill or the red one. Ask Neo (The Matrix) which one to take. He took the right one. I don't care for my tax dollars to pay for mostly weapons and bailouts for the rich. I'm not sure who was the last country to threaten invasion in America. Was it the redcoats or something? The thing our military is used for is to protect corporations in other countries. It's time for a change. Oh by the way, It appears the entire world is worshiping Obama. Did you see all those people in Germany? The majority of people in America who are against Obama at this point may just be those people whose name we can't say, but they are in denial to admit it. So JENY, Jeny, jeny keep those rants a coming.

no2much4u,

I am not going to issue a written chastisement to one new member on these forums for berating another member - and then sit back and watch you come in and berate the member that I just reprimanded.

Your opinions and respectful debates are welcome here. Snide and rude comments are not.

This is to everyone posting on this thread:

Final warning - anyone else, no matter which side of the debate you are on, that is disrespectful of another member, this thread is locked and deleted.

We are better and more intelligent than smear campaigns. It IS possible to debate these issues with respect for the other side.
