[quote=alexwee]i see that the political ads have brainwashed you well.....[/quote]
Brainwash? Lmao! Please dude it's called research and common sense. Republicans in general only want to help the 2% of the population and are hypocrites of everything they say. They don't care about people at all. That is why they don't want government help. They don't want it bc it will tax them. They don't want to lose any of their money bc they "worked' hard for it. In fact they never work hard for crap. Most of them are handed down the riches from their parents. Most of them sit on their ass in an office laying off the real hard workers the laborers that actually produce you the work. Look at the 8 yrs that Bush stole. All that was just plain garbage. Our country was screwed over when that buffoon came in office. His father was a lunatic as well. Republicans only care for themselves and think that no poor deserves any help due to them being "lazy" and "incompetent" people. Which is a total bs excuse so that they don't have to be taxed. They want to save your life by being pro-life but when your born already and ill or when you grow old and retired. They rather you lie dead on the streets than help you.
[quote=triiggerhappy]Everything can be abused you derp. Why take away something just bc some failers who abuse it? Also make sure to clarify yourself before posting in the first place. You never said anything about revamp. You just stated how you dislike welfare and food stamps. Which implies you don't want it around.
@above can't be any worse of the 8yrs George W.Bush was in office. He is hte one that screwed everything up right when Clinton left office. Stop blaming Obama for garbage that was handed down to him. You take office and see what you can do with the cards being dealt to you. Not to mention if we had Romney president expect another huge war for no reason by oil again. That's all Republicans want is wars and more wars. Bunch of greedy asses.[/quote]
i see that the political ads have brainwashed you well.....
[quote=zoneflare2]@triiggerhappy: LOL assuming that im republican because of what ive experienced and seen first hand. There are those that use it correctly but there are those who misuse it. Which is why it needs to be revamped to where it can be used for stuff that is non-junk food just like the WIC program has many restrictions for what can and cannot be be purchased.[/quote]

good job slave america... let's see how these four years turn out....
[quote=zoneflare2]Yay now i get to see more people wasting their food stamps on junk food. All praise the welfare country[/quote]
This is why Republicans are crap. They all jump to stupid conclusion and think that everyone who is on welfare or buys foodstamps abuse the power. No you derps. Not everyone on welfare spends it on booze or buys junk food with food stamps. Stop blaming all the less fortunate for some idiotic people.
Most of the issues don't effect me as Of yet, do I can't really have an educated opinion.
Late post but whatever http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTCRwi71_ns
4 more years to prepare for a Republican-caused apocalypse.

Name one policy Obama implemented that [b]increased[/b] social welfare, the ability to get social welfare, and/or the ability to get food stamps.
Go, use Google, you'll find he hasn't implemented anything. The welfare state is the same as it was before he was in office.. he hasn't change a thing.
Stop falling for the extreme-right-wing propaganda narrative.
[quote=Totos]Get ready for 4 more years of complete suffrage, economic depression, debt, and high unemployment rates.[/quote]
You completely misused the word "suffrage" in your sentence.
Economic depression? Have you not be following the news for the last 4 years? The recession was in 2009, the economy has been recovering ever since.
@fraddBS If you seriously think that Obama is going to issue a marshall law in the next 4 years you have been watching far too many YouTube conspiracy theory videos.
@AznPaint Er, Romney didn't win the popular vote. Before calling people "ignorant" and "uninformed" you should check yourself.
Congrats to Obama. Romney would have screwed it up for the Gay community, screwed up women's rights, and make the rich richer, while the poor gets poorer. I laughed at Fox news and Donald trump getting so butthurt as well. 4 more years to the president!
@AznPaint: whatever he still lost LOLOLOL
@Hauk933: idiot=/= happy, im sorry if i offended you but why can i not express my happiness?
You seem like you want to start a fight but I think that's stupid, this is the internet and unlike real life we do no harm to each other so why try?
[quote=Ldamplr]He didn't win the popular he was just ahead in the popular vote for a while but not anymore Obama just pulled ahead.[/quote]
Isn't the electoral vote the only one that really matters?
[quote=Hauk933]Then why did you bring it up?[/quote]
Because I can.
And you kinda brought me into this whole thing.
[quote=internet101]USA is officially the worst country to live in right now. Obama will destroy America[/quote]
George W. Bush already destroyed America with the necessary crap that was handed down to Obama. Don't blame Obama for the crap the past presidents did. We were doing great when Clinton was in office into George W. Bush stole both his elections. Then caused unnecessary wars against the people that didn't even attack us. Obama only has what he was given to deal with. 4 yrs isn't enough and maybe not even 8yrs to clean up the mess we are in. If Romney or any other Republican was in office we will be in more deep crap. With no help at all and only big business getting the help. If you arn't rich then you shouldnt even be voting for Republican since you won't even get any kind of help.
[quote=Luapxal344]Meh. I voted for Gary Johnson. I'm helping the libertarians reach the magic 5%. Hopefully... but at least there will be no voter remorse for me. It was my first time voting .
(btw I live in Texas which is always a strong republican state so my vote wouldn't matter even if I voted for Romney or Obama).[/quote]
I couldn't decide between the two... I like Romney's foreign policy and Gary Johnson's domestic policy... Not like I'm old enough to vote anyway... by a month.
[quote=freejuspower]Well, there's two key reasons:
1)They're very misinformed/uneducated.
2)They're republican haters.
And then the last reason which only applies to the educated and non republican haters is that: they don't agree with his policies or views. But the reasons above pretty much characterize all the basilers here who do not give good reasons why they "hate" Romney.[/quote]
I am very educated and informed about Reps and politics in general. They are all for big business, wars and more wars, oil, rich staying rich and poor staying poor. They want to take away any kind of govt help just bc it taxes their paychecks. Since they are greedy mofos that don't want to give a dime to the needy. They want to help the 2% of the population and are hypocrites when it comes to being a Christian. How are they hypocrites you ask? Well let's see they don't want abortion but they don't care if you are sick when your an adult. They want the death penalty and want to take away people's rights. Not to mention keep pressuring religion on to everyone.
[quote=Duckynater]Nowhere, that's why i said that with a question mark. Ah the right of speech, great isn't it.
Not making fun of Rommny, I'm just saying I feel great to live where i am not afraid to say something, don't you?[/quote]
Then why did you bring it up?

[quote=Duckynater]The person you quoted can not own me. I am free.
Or would Rommny take that away too?
I guess someone did not read the 10 amendments. [/quote]

[quote=PonyCard]@Totos @Crocboy200
Yeah he was totally being serious. You Romney supporters aren't too bright are you?[/quote]
I'm actually not a Romney supporter. I was just trying to point out something. Please don't assume. Poor Totos, she's just mad that Romney lost
Long live Obama.
@PonyCard: Riiiight. And then you have this:
[quote=Duckynater]
To all the people who have doubted Obama and me, YOU CAN JUST SUCK IT!
YOU CAN SUCK IT, YOU CAN SUCK IT, YOU CAN ALL JUST SUCK IT! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA!
[/quote]
Eehhh i might not be able to sleep during the celebration o__o
[quote=MongedOutNinja]he already won with 275 [/quote]
I don't believe that's final, yet... but extremely likely, yes.
[quote=Powerbomb]Why do people think that Romney is a bad presidential candidate? Not all republicans are "bad."
Besides, it would be dang hard for Romney to clean up this mess we're in too.
I also saw that the popular vote was pretty close this time around.[/quote]

I attend an extremely liberal university that's located right in the middle of one of the most liberal cities in the US. The streets are really loud right now and parties are probably going to start up any second.

[quote=MmmmmHmm]Never understood American voting system. Makes it so much more confusing with popularity votes and electoral votes.. can't they just do it by popularity? After all, its supposed to be a democracy, right?[/quote]
You want democracy? Travel thousands of years back in time and go live in Greece. True democracy right there.
Thank you to everyone that voted for one of two shallow/fake celebrity idols today for perpetuating the two-party system and ensuring the plutocracy for the foreseeable future.

Hahahaha, nope.
whoooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Freaken yes

[quote=crazygama]New term doesnt mean a new body [/quote]
Tell that to the year 3000 Richard Nixon.
[quote=iSpitOnLuk]^It is over.
I think you are mistaken. Obama won, not Romney.[/quote]
You do realize that she's talking about Obama for another 4 years, right?
Donald Trump's tweets are so funny right now. He mad.

[quote=ZOMGitjon]i guess you can say once you go black you cant go back[/quote]
It's once you go black you [b][/b]never go back[b][/b]. but yeah, that must be true.
I feel like this was so quick. More time for celebratory Denny's night!
Now the South can secede from the rest of the US and we can start Civial War II.
@xXMoonWingx: I just saw, I've been on Youtube's spotlight the past two hours. BBC updated much better.

Lol, the US is going to be $10 trillion more in debt by the end of Obama's second term.
[quote=RizzDizzle]Just to be clear, news channels are able to predict the winner by the current numbers that the states are giving them. So it is very likely that Obama is the next president, because enough states have been "called" by news stations to give him 270 electoral votes. Just let it be understood that this could all change should Romney suddenly gain the advantage in a few key states.[/quote]
That would be the ultimate irony wouldn't it?
hurray
Yay I voted for him
But some of Michigan's dumb proposals were voted yes on. Except the bridge, which is good
[quote=Fiercerain]sources please.[/quote]
Watch TV, look on an app, whatever...
Obama: 274
Romney: 201
Nevada (I think) had only 1% turn in the ballots o.o
[quote=mikealSin]It isn't over... if you guys hadn't noticed, some states haven't finish voting; some are assume to go to one side based on the higher percentage (IE: 10% reporting- Obama 58%, Mitt 48%; it could change anytime when the percentage of reporting goes up).[/quote]
Obama already got 270 electoral votes. He won.
