To me, November 6, 2012 was a very important day. It was so important, I took the day off of work. The evening of the election I stayed up late, glued to the TV, and I only took short breaks to use the restroom and grab a bite to eat. It has been two weeks since that fateful evening where I waited in line for an hour, eagerly anticipating...the midnight release of Halo 4!!!
Also, I heard that the President got reelected.
Before you label me as unpatriotic, I voted early on Saturday November 3rd. Lady Karma and I decided to get it out of the way. We didn't want to be stuck in a long line on the day of the election plus we already know who we were going to vote for anyway, so what's the purpose of waiting? The majority of the country should have voted early because the majority of the country already knew who they were going to vote for years ago (even before Romney got the GOP nomination). It was obvious that this was a Pro-Obama vs. Anti-Obama election.
It's nice to sit back and analyze the ungracious winners and sore losers during the post-election turmoil. One thing the ungracious winners need to notice is that this election was closer than the 2008 beat down. There is going to be more resentment coming from the scorned Conservatives in future elections. There are a few of you out there celebrating, and I don't understand why. There should have been a a collective Democratic "sigh of relief" instead of celebrations. This simply means Obama has four more years of trying to grease the many squeaky wheels in the country.
So there are a handful of States circulating petitions to secede from the Union? This is my favorite subset of sore losers who feel as if their individual state would prosper if they were no longer considered one of the United States of America. It is also ironic how secession is being discussed right around the time an Abraham Lincoln biopic is going to be released. Let me get this right, "You want your state to operate as its own Country because you are upset on who was elected president?" Secession is pretty much impossible in this day and age, so you might as well move to Canada...but beware...their Health Care system sounds a whole lot like this Obama Care thing you despise.
My second favorite subset are the voters who honestly believe that God is a Republican. There were a bunch of dumb asses on Facebook consoling and reassuring each other that "God is in control." No matter who is in charge of this country, "God will take care of us," right? If that was the case, what was the point of voting anyway? Wasn't God in control of the election too? "Public announcement..this is God. There will be no need to go to the polls today...I've got this!" Or was God stuck in traffic on some interstate in Ohio and didn't get to the polls in time? If God wanted Romney as President, he would campaigned for him! "I'm God, and I approved this message...Amen!" And for those who said pleaded for everybody to "Pray for our Country," I really find it strange that you would want to pray for a Country, but not a Country's leader.
Funny how Donald Trump has issues with how the voting was counted and doubts the results. He never doubted the results from the vote count on "The Apprentice." He has more faith in the people who watch his show than the people who showed up at the polls. Romney should have "fired" him a long time ago. Now you see why I placed more emphasis on a video game than the election results. I knew that no matter what, the next morning half the population would be celebrating and the other half would be bitching.
