Sorry, but I see dark days for the next two years( we may have to consult the ACLU now before we even have our coffee in the am) and I also see GB's pen getting worn out on veto's of crazy stuff the dems will send up the pike. This could bode well for the GOP in two years when we elect a President. Things will be sooooo screwed up that the country will pine for the GOP. George is still President and I know we'll see him step up and continue do what's right for America.

Thank you for referring back to the very reason why this thread was posted in the first place. Even if you're clearly not one of the people that made this change happen. But regardless of your pessimistic outlook, the outcome of these elections can only do the US, (and hopefully the rest of the planet) some good, for a change.
I'm certain that the overwhelming majority of the World's population does NOT want a USA as an "appeasing, no spine country".
But what we ALSO DON'T want is an allmighty, powerful US Military machine capable of absolutely devastating effects on mankind, being run by a Warmongering, one-sided, ultra conservative monetary interest group acting out of pure self-interest and greed (the same type of warmongering group that has fed terrorists and terrorists-to-be with more weapons than France, Germany or any other coutry put together ever has, by the way), hiding behind a Mass-media-backed facade composed of purely faked reasoning.
We want the US to be a strong leader, but fair, equitative, consensual and dedicated to some of the biggest problems this planet REALLY faces, such as the way in which we're recklessly erradicating the environment of the Planet we ALL live in (the US being by a vast far, the World's foremost pollutor ), assuring ourselves of a quick extinction of life as we know it.
We also want a US Strong in the fight against Terrorism, but doing the RIGHT things to erradicate terrorism; instead of creating actions that fuel and spawn the growth of terrorism and terrorists to unthinkable levels.
And by the way, George still being President Indeed, he might now have an actual chance of ruling by true democratic consensus-building, and not by absolute blinding empowerment. The kind of blinding empowerment that triggered the insane invasion if Irak, an act that has done nothing but harm, both to Irak (more that half a MILLION people killed) and to the US (billions upon billions and billions of tax-payer dollars spent, to get over 3.000 US servicemen and women killed - that's already as many as the people that were killed on 9/11).
For these, and many more reasons that should I mention I'd have to write a book about, I Congratulate the people of the United States on their action last Tuesday.
