I love this feeling... even though it's been emotional, a real roller coaster for everyone, I'm so glad I live in a country where everyone has a voice, and nobody is persecuted for stating their feelings.

Nosurfgirl is feeling conflicted... very happy about the outcome, moved by O's speech, and also sad that so many of her friends and family are feeling dissappointed. Especially her grandma. Nosurfgirl is worried about her Grandma.

…is not ready for the constitution to be torn to shreds, but looks like she doesn't have a choice.
Hope it doesn't happen....
Is that Grandma B????
What a super cool post! My status was "voted."
But now it should read:
"knows she will need to respect the new president of the U.S.A. and is having a difficult time with it"
Yes. G.B. was pretty worked up about it the day before... I emailed her back and forth and she seems to be doing better now.
This is a really cool link that I think you might like. I really agree with what he is saying here, and want to do it. What do you think?

i sure hope big o won't get the blame for our tanked economy...it just isn't his falut
I especially like your last sentence. It's so wonderful to live in this choice land and to have the opportunity to vote with our fellow (and sister) Americans every four years. The election day that really reinforced that for me was in 1984 when I was beginning to get impatient and annoyed at having to stand in line for so long. I had finally made myself into the library where the voting was to take place, and I picked up a book of photographs of people in concentration camps in Germany. The juxtaposition of their lives and mine was startling. I vowed at that moment to NEVER complain about standing in line to vote again. Ah, freedom...and the good old USA!
MK,
I read that transcript. Very, very cool. I have to say that I could never ever feel disrespectful of someone's opinions if they truly felt that way about America, and supporting the president.
Of course, I shouldn't feel disrespectful of ANYONE's opinions ever, but I'm not quite that mature yet. I felt new respect for Glenn Beck after reading that.
