Yesterday, a [white] middle class, well educated old lady asked if I'd watched the RNC...

I told her I hadn’t cause I found it hard to watch the mean spiritedness and the lies.

She said I needed to get to know the people who were going to be running our country.

She then told me what we needed was a businessman to run the country who would put the jobless to work. [facepalm]

Later I spoke to my [white] middle class, well educated parents on the phone…they told me they’d read that Romney was going to create a million new jobs.

I asked them how Romney was going to do that. They said by lowering taxes. [doublefacepalm]

Congrats to the Republicans; Their propaganda's working.

Commiserations to the rest of us; We’re so fucked.

I know. When the shit started hitting the fan here, I'd think, well, there's always Canada...then your dick of a PM got in. Seems there's no escape from dick-ish-ness.

So, about my upcoming move to Canada where I don't have to worry about the government being all up in my vagina and such, and where being a young, black unwed, woman with no children won't ultimately decide if I live or die, or even whether or not I'll be accepted into a school.

PS:

My father makes a lot of money and can't figure out how middle and lower class Americans fall for the RNC bullshit.

Canada's PM may be a twat, but he's not as completely fucked up as Romney.

@mdf Because people as a whole are morons.

If Romney was the guy in the cubicle next to you, would you be want to hang out with him after work? Got excited when his wife did her whole "I love women" statement and then realized she wasn't talking about what I usually associate with that statement.

I'm conservative but Romney just creeps me out.

Romney's not gonna do nuthin' - but lose. He's not asshole enuff for most Republicans, but he's still too much of one for most Americans, who are basically decent. Lap dog jackass-boy Ryan will make doubly sure he does.

Ya, Harper's a dick too, but he's Karl Marx compared to them Tea Party knuckledraggers.

Romney may be an asshole but what's Obama done for the economy? nothing. you can't deny that. Most importantly, despite Romney quest to oppress certain groups of people (which I find tremendously despicable as it is), the following article explains why Obama is 100x worse:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/02/john-cusack-interviews-la_n_1850181.html

this literally scared the shit outta me as I always knew Obama had something extremely shady about him. And let's not forget that its the state justices and not him that are beginning to overturn the defense of marriage act (signed by Bill Clinton apparently, who's still one of the best presidents, even if he basically started the war on drugs in mexico, http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ryan-grim/nafta-and-the-drug-cartel_b_223705.html).

Frankly, I rather have a bigot who's ok with numbers than a trigger happy man out to kill all dissidents "in the name of terrorism", can't even count to 8 (because if he could, he'd realise unemployment is insane not just because of the hubris of front of house bankers but MAINLY because his own banking regulatory bodies like the SEC REFUSED to follow and enforce extant regulations on trading because it made HIM too much money), and mask it all under a veil of "America is the greatest democratic country in the world". 2 words: fucking. liar. I know Romney's full of shit, but Obama uses his power to openly violate the constitution whilst explaining to everyone that it's for their own good.

Rant over haha
