Not that I sympathize with anything he’s written, so far as I can make it out… …but I hope he sleeps well, because he’s gonna have one _hell_ of a hangover tomorrow. ---

Going back to the original topic: Wow. But I can’t say I’m surprised, sadly. I _did_ find it amusing that, according to the first group, America apparently was _still_ a great nation during Obama’s first term. But now that he’s been re-elected, “RIP America!” ---

There are people tweeting that they’re going to move to Australia because Obama won. Yup, Australia. That’s the best way to get away from socialist medicine, gun control, and state funded abortion under a non-Christian, foreign-born leader. I wonder how they will feel when they get here and discover Australians were for the re-election of Barack Obama by a factor of 20-to-1? ---
