McHenry County Voters Favored Romney

Congratulations to President Obama and the people of the United States on his re-election.

Congratulations to President Obama and to the millions and millions of Americans who are stoked about all the free stuff they are going to get.
Face it. Since Obama has been in office there are millions and millions more people who get a gov't check in the mail, get foodstamps and rental assistance and maybe a phone...and are not in a hurry to get a job and change things. We are now an entitlement society where the 'takers' are now a more powerful voting bloc than the 'makers'. It's been a nice run, America.

Let our grandchildren take care of the national debt!
Why should WE do anything to absorb any of the pain?

As proud as i was in 2008 that my mostly white neighbors in McHenry County voted for the first black president, i am even more proud that they were strong enough to look past sympathies and skin color and vote against this man who is a failure as a national leader.
Alas, there were too many 'takers' out there who voted with their EBT cards instead of common sense.

Like Rush says, " It's hard to vote against Santa Claus when he gives you stuff for free!" Really? It's called responsibility. Not a new concept, just an old American tradition. Ask you Grandparents.

Why should we pay back an invalid debt? The corporation of the United States has been taken over long ago and not many noticed.
Iceland was smart enough to realize, and fight back. Are we? Not yet at least. Why don't you let me create currency for you? You must pay me back with interest. Because you are borrowing the money from me, and unable to create your own, you will NEVER be able to pay me back. You can only keep borrowing more money from me in order to keep up with the interest payments. Should I be blamed for creating this ridiculous situation for you, or are you responsible for your own stupidity? Do your children blame you for inheriting this scam? Do your grandchildren? Do your great-grandchildren? How is it that your descendants do not even realize that they are held in a never-ending debt spiral? Perhaps they were taught that this is 'normal'. This is how an economy is run, and if you don't understand why or don't agree with mainstream ideas then you are ridiculed...

Our kids are too busy learning Obama songs at school, to learn about the economy. 51% percent....Romney was only off by 4% (which is typically within the margin of error) when he said 47% will blindly vote for Santa Claus. We'll see how the middle class likes it when they have to pay the debt with their taxes. LOL 4 more years of utter foolishness. Perhaps someone should work on getting the 40% that didn't vote, that's damn near a win!

It's pretty easy to see who gets their ideas from Plush Limpbaugh here. Tell me this, all-knowings. Why is McHenry County the reddest county in the Chicago region and yet has some of the highest property taxes? How is voting republican working out for you?
And don't pull out the old tropes of the evil school districts. Every county has those.

It's pretty sad, will be a scary 4 years. It's pretty sad how easily people are brain washed by this guy's BS. Appeal to HOPE. Please. They're very blind to see what's going on out there. Take your social agendas to the local level like all those DOPE smokers did in Colorado. We need the federal government to start doing federal responsibilities like balancing the budget, solving the debt crisis, protecting the US borders and enforcing constitutional laws. This what works for half works for everyone thing is not working well. It's POLARIZING. Yes lets legalize mind altering drugs that make you lazy and slow in the head but make you feel spiritual. They call it DOPE for a reason. What message are you sending the youth? That's it's okay to do these things? Parents can only do so much, society is all around them. What a load of crap. Now lets wait for the racist, greedy cronies posts to follow. No we are not ignorant small minded low-life's.

Please, Please this is vital information...with the world coming to an end on December 21, 2012 because Obama, the anti-Christ was re-elected it is more important than ever that everyone be reminded to get their Christmas shopping done as soon as possible. Come December 22, when there are no more stores because Obama has used his death ray to destroy them, you will all be thanking me for this post. Good night and God bless America.

Further evidence of how pathetic racist infect the republicon party. Thanks for demonstrating.

Rob November 9, 2012 at 04:34 am

97% of the black vote...who's the racist?
