OK, so I'm still pissed about Obama being president, not gonna lie. But I won't deny that my post from last night was a little irrational, and that calling Obama voters "ignorant morons" was a little harsh. I usually don't get into politics since it ruins friendships and stuff, and pretty much all politicians on both sides are pretty corrupt anyways, but I understand that not everyone has the same opinions as me, and I didn't mean to sound hateful or anything towards Obama supporters. To be honest, I wouldn't have had a problem with Obama if he wasn't so sketchy, but that's just my opinion. I know a lot of Obama supporters think that people who voted for McCain are "racist" but for me and a lot of my friends, that is not the case...I can't speak for them but from what I can see, he has socialist tendencies, not to mention his birthplace and qualifications are questionable. The only thing that REALLY bothered me was that there were voters on both sides who voted for either Obama because he was black, or for McCain because he wasn't, and didn't bother to get informed on either candidate's platforms.
But of course, since all is said and done and there is nothing we can do about it now, we'll just have to watch the next 4 years unfold and see how Obama does as the new POTUS. I will give him props for becoming the first black Pres, and that's a great achievement for anyone really. But despite the outcome, I'm glad that so many people got out and voted this year.
My post from last night was just me venting and being pissy (and opinionated), and I had no intention of offending anybody on my friends list and if I did, I'm really sorry. :( This is why I usually don't get political lol
