Graz65's sentiments were that I have a "shit-ass grudge" and that I should "jump in the East River." His reasons for this is that Obama is going to lead us together and my hopes that he fails makes me a bitter, grudge bearing bitch who deserves to drown. If you feel that way, then what can I say?

As for the impact his success or failure will have on America, I always say that the country deserves what it gets. I am fortunate enough that I could avoid the discomfort of many things if my rights as a gay woman were further contracted or the economy continued to fail. I am not wishing ill will on my fellow Americans because I hate them. I just think the rabid Obama supporters, who curse anyone who does not go along with them, need to be taken down a few pegs. On this site, the way some people talk to those who do not agree with them makes this place seem like a liberal Palin rally.

Come on, tell me you never laughed at George Bush's stupidity or chuckled to yourself when he made an ass of himself, thus shaming those right-wingers who act as if he is a divinely inspired patriot. As the occupation of Iraq went south, there were gleeful articles about it. The glee was not over lives being lost or an entire region being engulfed in flames and rancor. It was because the failure of Bush made our political adversaries, who lionize him and his bloodthirstiness, look like idiots. Obama groupies are my political adversaries, though I am sure we are on the same side of all or most issues. They don't like me, therefore we do not get along. Some Obama supporters are offended when I say that I do not like him. His vapid and vacuous speeches were nothing more than platitudes about change and hope. I do not know what people see in him. I cannot understand what is so inspiring about him. Many Obama supporters find my distaste for him offensive. I never let my preference for a politician lead me to think that that person is an infallible saint who is beyond reproach. I certainly don't curse at people who do not like the same person I like.

Personal attacks and temper tantrums are unbecoming. Some of them are extremely offensive. I have had racist and homophobic slurs hurled at me. The other day someone suggested that I need Xanax which is really offensive to me because I am a person living with bipolar disorder. In the end, people should not get into cyber beefing because this is not their private space. At the end of the day, though, I would love to see anyone of these clowns say any of that shady shit to my face. It would get real grimy, real fast. It is easy to be a thug on the internet.
