Obama won.. (Read 1497 times)

      From the perspective of this European, a moderate Republican did win the election.

      The process is the goal.

        Rather telling that Europe sees an extreme liberal as a moderate Republican.  Might be why your economies are collapsing just a little before ours.

            I am only happy about Obama winning because A) Woman get to keep the uterus to themselves for another 4 years. B) Separation between church and state will still exist.

             

            The most frustrating part of the whole election for me was the disturbing frequency with which people were clearly swayed by hyperbole and fearmongering talking points (from both sides).

             

            The curmudgeon in me used purging a decent number of them from my Facebook account as therapy.  Get off my virtual lawn.

              In this election, the Democrats outperformed the Republicans in fearmongering, and a few in the GoP gave them the ammunition to do it.

              The process is the goal.

                When you get down to it I think humans have been using this tactic in attempt to influence people since we were living in caves and will continue it till we're extinct.

                 

                On another note, My son now calls Obama "Bronco Bama."

                  The reasons for economic difficulties on both sides of the pond pre-date Obama's presidency....

                    It seems that this election has buried an important story: The New York Yankees were swept in the ALCS by a team that was subsequently swept in the World Series. Just doing my part; good citizenship and all that.

                      I assumed this is what everyone was talking about in the media when they were saying Tragedy Strikes NYC.

                         Not that I care to have a dog in the fight, but you missed the point.  It was implying that Europe's problems are the result of socialist/liberal polices (yes, pre dating the Obama term) that make Obama look like a moderate.  Nothing to do with Obama's performance.

                         

                        I think it is clear that the US and most EU countries have fundamentally different philosophies.  I will let you all beat each other up about which is bad and good.  Smile

                          the most appropriate point made yet in this thread.

                           

                          when you have $114,000,000 in future spending committed to an underperforming 3rd base asset as part of a crumbling infrastructure you are not being fiscally responsible. Short term infusions lead to short term results with long term repercussions. Sabathia, A-Rod, and Texiera are owed nearly 1/2 of a billion dollars. Good luck with that. Perhaps the Yankees will be able to issue long term bonds which may be considered a safe investment given a troubled Europe.

                                with Democrats and 3rd base asses in a thread I think it's high time you all enjoy some good old donkey baseball...
