Obama Wins

You have to tip your hat to President Elect Obama. There are many challenges ahead and if there's one thing that's more important than any other time in this United States of America, we must all stand together to get through the many challenges we face.

The day has come where America has finally grown to the point where we finally have a Black President and that in itself shows just how much we've grown. For those of you who are bitter, change is always difficult to accept but we deal with that every day of our lives and this presidency will prove we are the greatest Nation on Earth.

God Bless America and God Bless President Elect Obama.

Not only a Black President but an illegal imigrant, not born in the US, not a citizen and able to pull the bigest scam off.

Just like him to use the system against honest people, he should be very proud that thugs like the black panthers stood watch for him...

Joe, just looking at the results here for Kratovil-Harris. Can I just ask how anyone can argue Harris is the candidate who cares about the Shore? 100% of Eastern Shore counties went for Kratovil, every one of them decisively. It's not over and I know Harris may win, but if so we have Baltimore County and Harford County to thank. Just look at the results.

Harris REP 15487 42.06%

11:54....see ya!

You're utterly disgusting.

It is time for everyone to pull together! No matter who you voted for. We all need to stand behind our elected officials!

You are obviously a very unhappy person and wish to continue spitting your venom. Maybe you should look for an antidote for that stuff before it kills you.

We are the UNITED States of America!

And to you Joe.....

You have made me proud. I know you are a die hard Republican and you did not want to see Obama win this election, but you stood up like a MAN and attempted to pull people back together.
I was considering not coming back to your blog because of your negativity against anyone not a Republican, but you have shown me you CAN be fair when you want to be.
Thank you for that because I do use you as my source of local news.

Joe--that was a classy post; it sure makes a lot more sense than the stupid remark about "cleaning her guns" by earlssister on another post on this blog. We live in the greatest country in the world and we need to come together now. God bless America !

Thank you Joe. Like others, I use your blog for news, and I too recognize you are a die-hard Republican. I opened you page with reservations this morning and was delighted to see you have moved on. We have alot of issues to resolve as a nation, and alot of issues to resolve here in Salisbury. Let's pray for Obama and get to work here in Salisbury to promote the changes we want in our own hometown. Our elections are right around the corner. Thank You Joe!

Classy post by Joe?! Not too sure about that. It's the only thing he can say (unless he really wants to come off as a racist). He went months of pushing McBush/Palin and he was wrong all along. Of course Obama has a tough road ahead... he is following someone who has sunk us over the past 8 yrs! McBush would have continued those trends.

Anonymous said...

I'm going to stand behind Obama, just like the hate filled Dems stood behind President Bush.
I just can't believe that ther people in this country would fight the cold war for years and years to prevent communism and then welcome it thru the front door by voting in that Marxist idiot!
You all deserve what your gonna get!
Mark my words, in four years you will see more of your rights gone as you allow big government to take control over your life.

Joe, with all due respect, Obama is not a black man, he is 50% white and 47% Arab. How can he be considered a "Black" man. Please America wake up.

12:33 It's a fact there really is no resaon for anyone on the Eastern Shore to vote. We are controlled by Baltimore and Hartford counties.
Go figure, What poltical group come up with this, at the very least only 1/2 of Baltimore County
should be represented in this district.

Anonymous said...

I think that it is a total shame that these 2 were the 2 best suited to run this wonderful country that we live in. Ask yourself this, if Obama was not a black man, would all the people that voted, STILL VOTED???? HHHmmmmmmmmmm

When I went to the voter station, i seen many black people there and they were all talking about Obama. I think it is a shame when the country decides a president on weather he is white black or has something hanging between his legs.

Ask yourself this, what would we have done had the entire country lost their eyesight for the election and no one had a clue if the guy/girl was white/black/mexican/chinese/japanese. It needs to be decided on who is the best to run our country.

I wont say that I voted for Obama becuase i dont trust the guy becuase of all his dirty laundry. Its a total shame when the president of the USA, that is right USA, and the news channels show coverage from Kenya. Serious. This is a crazy confusing day.

I just hope we can all get through this and GOD BLESS AMERICA.

By the way, Joe, that was classy of you to tip your hat to the Obama camp.

Joe that was well said. I agree we as a nation have to move forward. It has no bearing the race he is. That is not the point of being President, although I think that was the reason many voted for him. It is something that was voted and we now move forward to make USA a better one.

Anonymous said...

I truely believe we elected our President solely based on race. I dont believe the issues or resolutions that were given by either candidate did any good. Its scarey to know that the only reason that half the people came out to vote was so they could prove a point. It is all about RACE. Anyone who says other wise is fooling themselves.

I have never been so ashamed of my fellow americans and this country. To elect a man with so many negative affiliations and suspicions surrounding him and his beliefs is unbelievable. He has threatened our national security and has plans to change the very fabric of our culture. John McCain has given so much to this country and never waivered from his love of the USA. This man and his wife have openly shown their disrespect of the flag and the constitution. America should hang their heads in shame and plan for the end of this country as they knew it. We will be challenged and we will suffer damage in my belief. CHANGE. Oh yah! You'll get change and it won't be good. You elected him and now you can deal with him.

I believe that for the first time in history the media elected the President of the United States. Way to go CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, and to all of Hollywood. When I was in Europe OBama was a heavy favorite. That should tell you something.

Anonymous said...

You negative people are nuts--get over it! It wasn't just black people who voted for Obama--he won the MAJORITY of votes! that is not easy to do, and he did it convincingly. Watching McCain's gracious concession speech, and watching the amazing scene in Chicago when Obama spoke last night made me so proud to be an American!

This country has seen a great event that will be seen in history as the turning point that has made it even greater. We tossed aside hate and fear and chose change, tolerance and worldly understanding. Thank God for that...I am proud to be a part of it and even more prouder of being an American...my faith is this country has been wholely restored.

I promise from this point forward NOT to focus on the negative, fear-driven right ever again. I will instead relish in what has happened - America choosing to let that go and re-acquaint themselevs to the world stage that has come to hate us under the current misguided policies. America is now set to once again become a world leader in the spirit of cooperation and not by using strong-armed bullying tactics. GOD BLESS AMERICA! Home of the FREE and land of the BRAVE...

tedh said...

The term affirmative action describes many policies intended to promote access to education or employment for historically and socio-politically non-dominant groups (most often racial minorities or women). Motivation for affirmative action is to redress negative effects of actual or perceived, past or current discrimination that is regarded as unjust by relevant legislative bodies. Can't we get rid of it NOW?

From John S McCain III's concession speech last night:

"Whatever our differences, we are fellow Americans. And please believe me when I say no association has ever meant more to me than that."

Time to stop talking about campaign dirt. That's part of the game... paint as bleak a picture of the opposition. Game played. Its over now. Learn something from McCain's concession.

Really what has THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA come to!?!? How in the hell did Obama get away with this? Really this is a bunch of bull crap. He isn't all black either. And that's what people don't get. He is a muslim! I believe when it was about race all along. People thinking he was black. African Americans wanted to see the first black president..Now its only going to get worse. First of all get the hell over slavery and racisism. Its been over for years now, Really grow up and get on with your lives. But we all know that isn't going to happen at all. Its only going to get worse. And When it gets better is when there is a new President!!! This is really the biggest joke to the united states of America right now. Only God can save us and protect us now! Keep praying!

He's also the first Arab elected as president. He's my commander and chief for the next four years, it was a misconception for many to think they were actually voting for a blackman, and he ran on that format. He used the race card and he won. Hail to the chief, heavy is the head that wears the crown.

Also, after eight dismal years of Bush, I think Bush really screwed up the republican party. Many voters wanted away from the republican party like they would run from a leper colony, and we'll call it change.
