You sound like you want the voice of all those who dissent to be silent. That sounds like tyranny, sir. And I would question your motives and maturity
for even suggesting such.
Where did I say that dissenters should be silenced. Your posts on this thread and others about Obama today make it clear, as well as your signature,
that you do not accept Obama as President. That clearly means that you do not accept the Constitution of the US, and that has one word- anarchy. If
everyone believed as you, that they don't have to ACCEPT the winner of the election as the President, then we would have a president of half the
people(52% to be more exact). I did not vote for Obama, but I do accept that he will be the President of all the people, even you, unless of course,
you are prepared to renounce your citizenship. Are you going to do that?

What is wrong with a cult? It is the foundation of any CULTure.
You can only judge a cult on its fruits not because it is a cult.

Here is something to think about..... my experience has been that the majority of people associate ideas with symbolism. By that I mean, Barack Obama
represents needed change in America. I don't think it is so much about Barack Obama as it is you being perceived as being against needed
change.
Of course, there are always going to be a butt load of folks that have the two glued together.... but just something to mull over.
IMEO, of course.

Show me where in the Constitution it says I must accept the elected man or woman as my president?
When I say I will not accept this man as my president, I mean I will not acknowledge him as "President" in conversation or in print.
As for renouncing my citizenship - dream on. Obama has yet to prove that he is IN FACT a natural born U.S. citizen by showing his vaulted copy of his
birth certificate.

The following is my opinion as a member participating in this discussion.
Speaking as a member here, we need to take a step back and take a deep breathe or twelve...
President-elect Obama deserves a chance to prove both the faith people have expressed, or the doubt others have expressed.
As I've stated elsewhere, maybe even here..., he needs to be judged on what he actually does, than what we hope/fear he will do. Do all of you see
the differance? Let's just wait and see what he does. There is time enough to complain, and to replace him, if neccessary...
As an ATS Staff Member, I will not moderate in threads such as this where I have participated as a member.

believe that we can see them manuevering ideas with movies, tv, commercials, ads..even buildings and signs have I believe, communication codes of some
kind.
this election was likely brought to you by "Misperceive our intentions so we can deceive you all inc." im not buying a thing.
OH my gosh I love it, this is exactly it.
There was a person in the booth next to my son on the cell phone getting instruction on each choice, he voted Obama,How many people are out there like
him?

Speaking as a Mod here, there will be serious repercussions for those that can not discuss political topics with civility. Yes this is a heated
subject. If you want to wallow in personal tripe, post it on other sites. ATS is not for this.

"Everyone says "Give him a chance before you hate him!" isn't it supposed to be the other way around? Let him prove himself then love him? Im
pretty sure this is how the world works. You don't get married to someone then see if you like them."
That may be true, but isn't a person innocent until proven guilty?

Thank you for implying about and challenging my character over the internet. For your information, I voted Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party.

The following is my opinion as a member participating in this discussion. That's very true... But attempting to demonize him before he's even visited the White House seems a bit excessive to me...

I got into an argument with a neighbor of mine just now. He commented that the terrorists must be celebrating Obama's election and I bit his head off
telling him I was sick of that crap. He tried to rejoin by saying it was a joke and I said not it isn't there is nothing funny about it... he is not
going to be my president and he is not going to be your president... he's going to be our president. I was told to go F off.
I don't care if he or anyone else likes the man or not... cut the crap... can the smears and give the fellow a chance. If anything he needs ALL of
our prayers and good wishes.
I have heard the man called a coward because he is more interested in peace than war. I have read such sentiments on here. Think about it though...
think about all the race hatred that still exists in this country. Think about the multiple threats on his life. Every time Obama stepped out in front
of those crowds of 50, 60, 80, 100,000 people he put his life on the line and there is no saying that he did not know it.
That is not the act of a coward. Far from it. It was the act of a man with a deep and abiding sense of confidence and courage and inner strength.
The politics of hate and division is a poison in the lifeblood of our country and it needs to stop before it tears us apart.
