I agree and they might as well replace all the lawmakers there with automatic machines that will clap or not clap on demand. I can't stand the mindless clapping and /or refusing to clap.

He was not elected by a landslide(see Ronald Reagan). The man is divisive. He plays on the divisions in this country while he campaigned to bring us together.

332 to 206 electoral votes is a pretty definitive margin. It wasn't a close election, like 2000 and 2004. You may not like it, but the majority of Americans disagree with you.

I've got a pretty good assortment of CDs, LPs, and a few movies on the DVR, might even see/hear something to clap about

Obama alone would never pull off what he does without the media propaganda machine.

Certainly no one with a minimum of two brain cells or more would ever believe anything that came frm his mouth. Prepared to be grubered tonight.

Obviously some were fooled by Obama and the liberal media... the spinmeisters with a little help from the IRS and blaming some guy and his video. The mid-term elections proved people are waking up.

HeyJude - Republicans won!

“The time has come for a president … who will listen to you and learn from you even when we disagree.... I will be that president for America.” -- Obama, after winning the Iowa Caucus (January 1, 2008)
