I just think it's funny that a guy who was piggy-backing on Belly's "not my president" bitching when a D was in office is whining because other people are saying the same about an R president.O-Trap;1834039 wrote:I don't disagree with this, but it's not exclusive to them, either.

QuakerOatsThanks.
I guess I don't recall a million radicals with vaginas on their heads, hoisting the most vile placards imaginable, all parading around the day after obama was inaugurated exhorting the public to believe we were all going to die etc.... -

I am not 'whining' about it at all. They can say whatever they want; in fact, the more they parade around acting like fools, the more it helps the current officeholders. I am merely pointing out that they are suffering from severe Trump Derangement Syndrome. Help should be available.Heretic;1834043 wrote:I just think it's funny that a guy who was piggy-backing on Belly's "not my president" bitching when a D was in office is whining because other people are saying the same about an R president. -

Because Obama wasn't a threat to Democracy and espoused protecting the individual fundamental rights.QuakerOats;1834049 wrote:Thanks.

Trump? Next Hitler. I am proud to stand against the next Hitler and tell my grandchildren I at least tried to save the Republic.

Just like you had Obama Derangement Syndrome for eight years, with the proof being all through this site. You can think what you want, but you are in no way different from the "TDS" people other than political leanings.QuakerOats;1834054 wrote:I am not 'whining' about it at all.

And THAT is why our politicians are so corrupt and lie so much. Because the voters are stupid fucking sheep. Funny thing is, this same people are far, far more critical of coaching and ownership of their local sports teams, but just can't find in themselves to criticize the people they vote for. -

Our illustrious leader continues his claim of 3 to 5 million illegal votes in the election. Gosh it is fun to watch his Press Secretary weasel around the claim. Making it but not really defending it. Oh well just another one of those alternative facts. -

obama's damage to the republic is nearly immeasurable.
If I didn't know you were trolling I would certainly recommend counseling, and perhaps establish a Go-Fund-Me page on your behalf where all OC'ers could assist in your recovery. -

I'll take more of Obama's damage please. -
AutomatikI'd like to know how Obama has directly affected Quaker over the last 8 years. If his constant crying says anything about it must have been negative and very significant....but I highly doubt that. Some people just get off to complaining. Sad.
Personally, my last 8 years have been fucking awesome. -

Much more importantly, how have the last 8 years affected the middle class. This isn't about me; it's about the republic and The People. -

Pretty much my thoughts.

The blast 8 years have been horrible. List out family insurance due to Obama.

Those people must live in Chicago if they fear for their lives. 2017 gonna be a banner year in Chi-town. Already have over 50 murders and 300 shootings.QuakerOats;1833985 wrote:Severe psychosis:
Candidates aspiring to take over as chairman of the Democratic National Committee met Monday night to discuss what went wrong in 2016 and how to get the party back on track.
Early into the event the candidates gravitated toward a particular scapegoat for the party’s poor showing in November: Political consultancies owned by white people.
“We have to stop, particularly with the consultants,” said the chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party, Jaime Harrison. “You cannot come to the DNC and get a contract and the only minority face you have is the person answering the phone.”
Minority consultants “need to get the same resources that the white consultants have gotten,” said a Fox News analyst and candidate for the chairmanship, Jehmu Greene. "The DNC did a piss poor, pathetic job" attracting minorities, she said.
Democrats must provide “training” that focuses in part on teaching Americans “how to be sensitive and how to shut their mouths if they are white,” urged the executive director of Idaho’s Democratic Party, Sally Boynton Brown, who is white.
The event’s moderator, MSNBC’s Joy Ann Reid, asked the candidates how the party should handle the Black Lives Now movement.
The candidates uniformly emphasized that the party must embrace the activists unreservedly.
“It makes me sad that we’re even having that conversation and that tells me that white leaders in our party have failed,” Brown said. “I’m a white woman, I don’t get it. … My job is to listen and be a voice and shut other white people down when they want to interrupt.”
“This is life and death” she emphasized. “I am a human being trying to do good work and I can’t do it without y’all. So please, please, please, get ahold of me. Sally at we-the-dnc.org. I need schooling so I can go school the other white people.”
Another candidate said black Americans are now living with “justified fear” of being killed after Donald Trump was elected president.
Raymond Buckley, the chairman for the New Hampshire Democratic Party, told a story about how, in the midst of “grieving” on Election Day, he received a call from his black niece, who feared for her life after Trump’s victory.
“It’s not just certain parts of the country,” he said. “That fear is all across the country. It’s even in rural new Hampshire. So when people say black lives matter, you are damn right they matter.”
Asked whether they would agree to work with President Trump, the candidates agreed they would never do so, which drew some applause from the otherwise quiet crowd at George Washington University.
