Are You Crying? Inaguration 2009

reply to post by antar

First, learn how to spell their names! Second, Welfare and Social Security would be in great shape if we only allowed those who had PAID IN money through payroll taxes to draw benefits from those programs. I don't want to hear any crap about reparations to the blacks/slaves. Remember, this is a free country..........Free to use, not free to abuse!!!!!!!! Just remember this also.....we are the home of the FREE BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm crying. I'm crying for the inevitable destruction of our republic. The latter has nothing to do with race and everything to do with a Marxist and globalist philosophy that is bankrupting our nation.

Seven, please expand on this notion!

I mean, it is unavoidable, by now, you must agree, that our (the US) economy is International!!!

Really, take a look at most things you (*edit here*)...buy, and see where they are manufactured!!!

What is the problem is, under the last eight years, our most recent Administration was blind to the reality that the USA must be the Primary Producer and Exporter in this World Economy, if we wished to sustain any prominence.

Unfortunately, the past Adminstration failed to understand this basic, and instead turned their heads to another target....a FAILED target....and that is why we face this economic tragedy today.

hey stealth,read my post to "we got obama click" all i can say is r,ight on bro

Truely just another politician this guy is, he played the race card in all the subtle ways as to avoid being accused of doing such, he came out of NO WHERE with very little experience and a BIAS MSM,FOLLYWOOD, and all others who dont work hard to put food on the table or pay the bills to back this empty suit up, i am latino so i can sypathize with oppression, but this was over the top, ridiculous for some multi-millionare like opra to sell us this!! ridiculous for affleck and damon to come out in public and trash Palin just because they dont like her. This election reached an all time low and was NO STEP FORWARD for minorities, look at what the first few days have brought, dead innocent civilians in pakistan, obamas home nation really disliking him restoring funding to planned parenting overseas, overseas!! WHY!! we are running out of money in the US and he is shelling it out to people who dont want that!! he closes guantanimo because human right advocates dont want torture, but releases terrorist murderers so they can return to the war against US! and let the perps of 911 off the hook as far as a trial goes!! obama wants to silence Rush Limbaugh because he speaks the truth about him, and dont spatter off how Rush is an idiot, he has been syndicated on national radio for over 20 years, you dont get there being stupid!! Where is the CHANGE?? I HOPE we get a new president in 4 years!!!

Nope I wasn't crying.
I don't claim him as president.

(sorry Mods) But, someone had to do this...

REALLY?!?

Jester, YOU don't 'claim him as president'???

YOU!!??!!

Well, we shan't go into the fact that our latest, Number 43, was NEVER ELECTED in the first place (this is a matter of fact, not subject to dispute).

Nevertheless WE were subjected to THAT moron's policies for the first 4 years....and, likely due to a combination of a spaghetti-noodle opponent and possible fraud in the State of Ohio, had to endure ANOTHER 4 years!

Well....SORRY, jester, that you don't 'claim' him as President. BECAUSE, after not only a landslide of the popular vote, President Obama also clinched a veritable landslide in the Electoral College. DEAL WITH IT!!!

Careful! The 'least of expectations' for Obama are incredibly low.

My feelings are - crying with joy is premature. If Obama comes good on his promises, be my guest - ball your eyes out*. But until that time, let's be sensible.

*It is my persistent belief that he will not come good on these promises. The NWO does exist and even if Obama is genuine, do you really believe they're going to let one idealistic spanner ruin their works?!

I repeat, When someone is in touch with and able to feel their heart, they can cry for many reasons.

I cried because we have lived in such a hell for years and yes there is still a shred of hope left in me, I am free and so I will always have hope.

I cried on Inauguration day as I realized the magnitude of the historical events being played on the TV. The first Black President to US history, that alone makes his promise of change complete...

Are You Crying? Inaguration 2009... Nope.

As the lyrics from Jon Bon Jovi was sung:
Oh we're HALF way there.
Oh we're living on a prayer.

I'll really cry when a Native becomes our president, IMHO.

piky, very poignant on many levels.

I'm a native! Do I count? I was born in Los Angeles, California. THAT should make a Native, no?

OH, I think I see where you were going....you wished to refer to 'Native-American', that euphamistic term to denote people who's heritage pre-dated Columbus, and the Conquistadors?

Modern political boundaries are really meaningless. It is the change in people's attitudes that have actual meaning.

reply to post by weedwhacker


Ah, good catch, weed meister! Correction: 'Native-American'!

Yes, you count as 'native' and rightfully so to be 'president' as per the Constitution of the U.S.A.

Shall we go further and include those 'Native', as in the original inhabitants of this planet? But that's going to deep and probably meant for another forum.

I can't stop crying now either. What a wreck the socialists are turning this country into.

Thanks Obama for blowing all my son's money to finance your banker buddies.

reply to post by slicobacon


Yes. Now, look at all the people who were crying about his inauguration. I.e. The previous posts. Now look at the country. Change? I do not think so...

EDIT: I still cannot believe some people here on ATS were caught in the trap.

Am I crying?

Of course I am crying. The significance of what happened is shocking and will stay with me forever.

The thought that millions of Americans voted for an incompetant politician for the sole reason of his skin color saddens and disappoints me to my core.

When people voted for Strom Thurmond because he was white. That fact that people voted for Hillary because she was a woman.

The fact that people would vote for ANYONE because "we need a black/white/woman/Latino/Gay" sickens me.

People like you are telling the rest of America "Who cares about the nation? It's time that a person that represents my pitifully limited view of thw world is all the reason I need to vote."

Obama ran for office longer then he was IN office. He NEVER experienced poverty. He NEVER serveed his nation. He bragged about searching out the most radical parts of society to befriend so he could get "street cred" (his words not mine.)

The man is a socialist leading your children to drowing debt and all you can say is "He's black...hooray."

You are sad. You should cry.

This thread is strangely silent.

An increase of troops in Iraq? Thousands more civilians dead.

Death death death in Afghanistan. Tens of thousands more innocents dead.

A ruined US economy, and dozens of election promises broken.

Are you still crying Antar? If so why?

Well, well.. almost 4 years now. Ain't a damn thing changed, ..... Obama!

I feel bad and embarrassed for the thread author, and I too, was all starry-eyed for the change that we can believe in. I had no idea, this guy was a NWO Manchurian Candidate of the devil worshipping inhuman inhumane genocide club, to carry on The Project For A New American Century, and make the entire US a martial law full spectrum national security dominance prison camp, beyond what George W was doing. Just like out of the movie Equilibrium. I had no idea, because I was not on the internet as much as I am now, and I was traumatized from the torture horror stories of innocent civillians and their children.

But we are at a time very much like when the printing press came out, it was revolutionary then. All these old evil corrupt power mad (and just outright mad) governments who relied on lies, deception, fraud, to keep their bootheel on our necks, are on their way to becoming extinct, like a vampire who is thrust into the sunlight.

Everyone sees that the emperors are walking around with their lilly white fat as*** in our faces, having no idea that everyone can now see the game of Democrat-versus-Republican they were playing with us.
