Before I start off, I'm an Independent with conservative/libertarian tendencies. I refuse to be categorized with evil conservative Bush supporters. I won't ever say I am even if you pay me to.
That set aside, here I go:
I can deal with a new president that I don't agree with. I mean, if all those Bush haters survived the last eight years, so could I. If you voted for him because he's black, you're racist. And you people "we shall unite no matter who he is.." you probably bashed Bush. Hypocrisy much? I can easily accept Obama, but only if his supporters let me.
It's hard to accept a guy whose supporters take offense to your opinions and makes it a battle to defend your first amendment rights.
It's hard to accept a guy whose supporters throw empty water bottles and the like at you if you disagree with them.
It's hard to accept a guy whose supporters diss Sarah Palin by saying she's stupid and when you ask "How so?", they can't give you a good answer.
It's hard to accept a guy whose supporters call you racist when you're obviously not.
The list can go on.
Well that's how it is in California.. Perhaps the supporters are much nicer elsewhere. I had to put up with this kind of abuse all throughout the campaign and now I'm afraid I'll have to deal with it for four years. It was much easier to bash Bush because everyone else hated him. Now if I dare say something bad about Obama, I'll get so much shit thrown at me, it won't even be funny. Also I'd be called racist to boot- again! I'm not a racist either! Hello? Haven't you heard? I'M DATING AN ASIAN BOY!!!! .
( interestin' things I read )
I pray for a good president in the future, always. All the presidents I've lived through (like all two of them xD) haven't been very good; America needs a good leader. Obama better do a good job or I'll be pissed to the extreme and I'd say "I FUCKING CALLED IT!"
Needless to say, I wish I could move so I won't have to face angry people. I'm so scared all the time, and FUCK, this is America! This shouldn't happen. :(
