Thank god today is thursday because then vd is on an then it means that we are only one day away from the weekend.
So i promise that this is the ONLY political post i will ever have but recently something came to my attention that just makes me feel compelled to comment on. So i live in wisconsin which alway seems to vote democratic in elections but thr county i live in is highly republican.
My chemistry teacher on the day of the election said that Mitt Romney was a bloodsucking billionarie and that obama was the person to vote for to support catholic values. There are a million things wrong with what he just said. First of all he is not supposed to talk about his affiliations and even though he didnt directly say who he is voting for he made it pretty obvious. And secondly catholics corr belief is tht all life is sacred, and what just kills me is that as a student its not like we cann try to refute what he just said BUT I GO TO A CATHOLIC PRIVATE SCHOOL!!! He cant say things like that.
I think its just stupid people cote on things like JUST social policies they dont even think about what obama is doing economically. Like i bet my physics teacher doesnt even think about the fact that obama is raising taxes on families that make 200,000 which is the majority of families who go to my school. Therefore families who used to send their kids to private achools may decide to send their kids to public schools because it is cheaper . THUS his job is drectly effected.
I mean i understand if you vote for obama because you believe in both is social an economic policies and can back it up with cold hard facts that what he is doing is good for the economy then fine. But it seems a bit strange that 95%of the aftican american population voted for obama. In the end obama is going to raise the deficit make it a massive burden for kids in my generation, our medical system is going to seem like a dream compared to what it will be like, abortion will seem normal, our reputation of being a world power in the navy military etc is going to go to shit, were heading closer and closer to socialism and even I know that that is NOT a good thing. The america we used to be is slowly and slowly fading. Now people who work hard to sucecced will be forced to just give their money to people who work for shit and never got a high school education.
And ya know MICHELLE the fact that you said that you had never been proud to be an american until your beloved hubby barack was elected is despicable. What kind of person isint proud to be an american but better yet SAY IT ON LIVE TELEVISION. anni bet everyone who voted for obama just neglected to realize that. Why werent you proud before? Huh? Huh?
Maybe its just because ive been raised under the wing of two very informed republicans but im still gonna have hope that someday we will go back to the way we used to be. BE INFORMED PEOPLE BEFORE YOU VOTE!! Dont be lazy!! Know what your voting!!!
Okay im done. Sorry if i offended anyone, i hope i didnt because im bot SPURTING LIES I WAS ONLY TELLING THE TRUTH I PROMISE.
Okay goodbye happy thursday
Ha no offense taken. Im gonna keep it short, I honestly think the main reason people vote for Obama is that he focuses on both social and economic policies whereas Romney has barely touched on social policies-- and I think Obama won because Romney just didn't appeal to everyone. Not gonna lie, he's smart, he's resourceful, he knows his shit, he had a bunch of great ideas, but he just didn't appeal to the younger generation and believe it or not they make up a lot of the people voting. What do you think teenagers and the younger voters want to focus more on? Everyones all about social policies these days. Obama repealed the Dont ask Dont tell law. And even though I voted for Obama, it wasnt because I wasnt thinking about who I voted for and I just ASSUMED Romney was some Republican who had no idea what he was doing (like Bush, I mean, seriously). I know Romney would actually have made a pretty good president. But he just didn't focus on social policies enough. And even my dad who's a democrat voted for Romney because of Romney's economic policies. I think the reason Romney didnt win, though, is because he didnt try hard enough to appeal to the younger generation, there wasn't enough of a balance between social and economics for him. And even if some of Obama's ideas werent amazing,thats why I think he won.
ReplyDeleteANYWAY it personally doesnt matter all that much to me so no offense taken haha. Im sort of neutral when it comes to these things.
