my conclusion about US elections

Hangout GupShup Cafe

The US presidential elections were pretty interesting.
it seems like the staunch supporters of GOP this year had a strong representation from the following groups

  1. The not so educated…stats show that the least educated people, among whites voted for mccain.
  2. The more closed minded they did not want one who they suspected may be of a different faith or may have had influence of a different faith
  3. the rather racist types, you know “i think he is an arab”
  4. rural ppl, backwater, underdeveloped areas
  5. old fashioned, stuck in their way people
  6. people who vote based on religious beliefs abortion is against nature, sex-ed is not right, gays should have no rights.

Only leaves two questions

should GOP be renamed MMA or Taleban?
what would mullah palin do next?

So, it was right when Taleban said… You can run from us from now, but you can’t hide. Sooner or later, we are gonna hump you :bummer:

How would Bush become after being Talebinized? Just imagine :halo:

Actually, if you look at the breakdown by income, Republicans do better among the upper classes.

So true! Republicans have so much more in commong with the same "Islamic Fundamentalists" they say they hate! They totally would have religious (Christian) laws if they could. Its no wonder that the Bushes got along so well with the Saudis

Re: my conclusion about US elections

I spoke to a friend of mine on the train last week abt the elections. I was interested in his opinion and it was interesting alright.

He says this election was unfair because every uneducated and educated black/brown person went and voted for Obama. I dont think so...PLENTY of Caucasians voted for him as well. He said he didnt believe in this election so he didnt vote. He is a white guy.

His response incensed me. Im sorry, if a white guy holds office its fair but Obama being elected is unfair because he is black? I actually argued with him because its not about the white man anymore...it never was. America was not built for white/colored skin, it was built for anyone and everyone to find better opportunities. No one is American by heritage. Everybody here is from another country/background. His parents are Italian, mine are from Pakistan. He was born and raised in the States, so was I. What makes you more American than I? Your skin color? If he believes that, its a sad day for American people because he is regressing while the rest of the world is progressing.

Ohmigosh, I wanted to give him a piece of my heels!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, had to vent. Im done now, thank you.
