Soul searching? For what? The writing is on the wall Cobb. Did you even read my post? Do you even look around past the rhetoric that is layed out for you every day? The world is in a fiscal decline never seen before. On the brink so to say. Collapse is imminent. Like I said it doesn't really matter who is elected but we know what Obama has done which is make it worse. Spain is about to go down next. The banks have stolen about all they can and the fuggers at the top have all jumped ship and are laughing right now. You keep dreaming your "build the future together" nonsense. You better start worrying about taking care of you and yours because that time is coming. I didn't think it would happen this quick but it sure as hell is. Good luck cause a lot are gonna need it when the sheet hits the fan and doomsday starts Jan 1st when folks unemployment runs out the payroll tax holiday ends and the last smack across whats left of our economy is unleashed.

Probably about equal to the level of acceptance of liberals when Romney wins in a landslide.

Romney in a landslide? lololol... dream on. If Romney wins, this liberal will accept him as the legitimate president of the U.S. I had my doubts about Bush's legitmacy because of the dubious way he became president after the 2000 election, but I conceded he was the rightful leader after the 2004 election.

And they call us liberals unpatriotic.

How about this: tell me how Obama has sought to abandon the Constitution.

Lastly, explain in what ways the US is a welfare state. The global economy is in awful shape and we've been lucky to have a safety net in place. That we have a safety net at all does not, necessarily, make the US a welfare state.

I would appreciate a thoughtful rebuttal.

That is wishful thinking

Hmmm, maybe then he will let the rest of the country know what are the details of his tax plan, how is he going to replace the healthcare law, his actual foriegn policy and <gasp> maybe even his tax returns for the past 10 years

There was no dubious way Bush became president. If anything was dubious, it was Gore who tried to change the rules after an election (extending the certification, for one; and the endless hand recounts, for another).

They will keep screaming "dictator", because they believe that is what they were elected to do.
