Election results: No way for this to end but badly

If you know someone who voted for Obama, you might as well face the fact they voted for [someone] helping to take over a once great, proud, God-fearing nation that was willing to fight for what we stood for and sold us out for a few free dollars. It now appears that lies and corruption are our new norm. There can be no way for this to end except badly for America.

I thought that, as every election in the past, a bad economy hanging around an incumbent’s neck would sink him. Even those few Americans who were still employed full time would be aware of the pain of their neighbors (especially those living on Social Security) and would elect someone who would try to make a better country.

I guess some Americans would sell their liberty for the sake of trinkets like cell phones or even big shiny lies like free health care.
