Whos your !@$@%$$$^% daddy?!!! :-) Accept no substitutes our country is BAAAAACK and I campaigned my heiney off here to help make it happen!! Woo hoo! This would have happened in 2004 and 2000 had Rethuglicans tactics not decided who's votes were worthy of being counted because they had an agenda and didn't like the result they saw. Let's take a moment to refelect

The moment the Rethuglican party decided certain americans votes didn't count, the moment they decided to change the rules because they didn't like the result. The moment they opted to STEAL democracy from Americans who disagreed with them instead of EARNING it is the moment our integrity and credibility flatlined and the moment in their elitist aristocratic manner they stopped being real Americans by committing those treasonous acts. THAT is what's on it's way out (and I say rethuglicans to separate from decent Republicans who looked at America to include ALL of it's citizens).

I had no problem with losing if the game was played fairly. But the fact is it wasn't. If someone wanted to vote someone like Bush in who was dumb as a bunch of rocks that was their right. But to manipulate and cheat just to get the last 8 years we've had.... I don't care how many flags they wrap themselves in and try to call themselves patriots by labeling those who call them out unAmerican. That's still lipstick on a pig.

That said. I and all of the other SIX MILLION Americans overseas who tried to become invisible as we defended ourselves and the noble aspects of our country or apologized and tried to explain the past lunacy of the decisions made can now lose the dark clouds that hung over us and walk with pride as the mantle of inspiration, hope, can do attitude and all that America represented has been restored. You have NO IDEA how our global standing in the world was damaged and how this election result has impacted the REST of the world and will continue to do so for the BETTER.

The country that I felt had abandoned it's people for the last 8 years has returned. We will finally have a commander-in-chief that will know how to responsibly and intelligently use our armed forces and give it the respect in wielding it that it deserves. My children's future will be better off because of this result.

The Democratic Party had everyone celebrating with other Americans til 7 am in the morning. The joy and hope and honor that has been restored to us... I thank everyone who got engaged in the process and helped reclaim a country who's ideals and strategies were heading in the wrong direction.

I along with 6 million other ex-pats who voted thank you for helping save our country from idiocy and restoring to a more noble stature. There is still much work to be done. But this milestone will be something future generations will thank us for. The citizens voted and they spoke loud and clear. Maybe someone will talk to Bush speaking slowly and using small words to explain THIS is what a mandate looks like. :-)

That said we are ALL Americans and look forward to Republicans and Independents working with Democrats to solve the problems we face TOGETHER.

We ALL sink or swim.
