Dear Editor,
I feel your pain. Really, I do. I know how you feel. Right about now you are disheartened and a little bit dazed. You are walking around like that little cartoon guy with the dark cloud perpetually over his head, asking, “What happened?” The world isn’t over, you admit, but you are sure that the end can’t be far away. After all, it is obvious that we as a nation are going straight to Hell as recent events testify. Your lives are filled with dread as you absent-mindedly go through your daily routines, flinching at every loud noise, waiting for the next foot to fall.
I know exactly how feel. Really, I do. I felt the same way 12 years ago when George W. Bush was elected. I felt even worse eight years ago when George W. Bush was re-elected. Trust me, you will survive this and maybe even smile again, one day.
When are we going to realize that politics is just another way to divide people?

Kevin1 , "If" you are in the medical field you don't need to be with your attitude.
you certainly had the right to meke that statement, I don`t know how many times I have heard the exact opposite said, but please be lenient with all of us whites and don`t send us back to Europe or where ever, you made your point and I accept your statement but please don`t dwell there too long like some of us whites did.
"GO IN PEACE"

It is a sin to lie, period! I'd tread lightly when calling someone a liar... you don't really have to go outside of the Oval Office to find the greatest liar of all! Close Gitmo, Cut the Deficit, won't raise taxes, blah, blah, blah.
How have "you" taken our country back? There has been almost NO change to the political layout in DC. Still a Dem Senate, Republican House, and Obama...EXACTLY as it has been for the last 4 years. Nothing accomplished then...don't expect anything to get accomplished in the next for (except for maybe soup kitchens and bread lines)!
Hater? Yea, I am a hater...a hater of the "gimme" crowd, a hater of the "I want my free stuff" crowd. A hater of the crowd that's ok rolling over and taking whatever Government hands out. You bet I'm a hater. I want our country to return to the days when EVERYONE (capable of working) worked hard and took pride in this country!

Look across the country and find out how many companies have laid off employees because of our great leader since his re-election.
There are now more moochers than people willing to work. The moocher class has figured out they can go to the ballot box to steal from those of us that are successful. People should take a peek at Greece, that's where we are headed.
If you are looking for a full-time job, you may as well forget it. Obamacare punishes companies with full-time employees. A company would rather hire part-time workers than having unnecessary cost from full-time workers insurance or the penalties. Many companies are now looking at laying off their employees, I think they should start with the Obamabots.
Mr. Romney found out that even though it might not be a sin to lie in business and politics, it is a sin to lie to the public.
Abraham Lincoln was given credit for the phrase: "you can fool some of the people all the time and all the people some of the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time."
At last we have taken our country back from the haters of this world. God not only blessed this country, he allowed the right person to win the Presidency.
Obama called America "arrogant"
Michelle Obama called our flag "all this over a 'damned flag' that is going beyond hate
Obama taking the side of the disorderly professor against honest policemen who were keep order? despicable. If the policeman had not been white he would not have taken sides - that's racist.
Obama "America can't always be number 1"
in his dreams. He's trying his best, however, to bring America down on the same level as other mediocre nations. If you voted for him, you are helping him do just that.
And Have you seen the video of Obama back in the 90s objecting to a government run health care bill? He equated government run health care to a failure in leadership - at least he got that right. Was he lying when he told us that or is he lying now that he's telling us it's a good thing?
And telltales, what do you think of him belittling women like Sarah Palin and lauding Sandra Fluck who wants you to furnish birth control tor the immoral?
And do you promote his belittling those who cling to their bibles?
I believe you are promoting the evil things this man does because you are racist.
Try to feel the pain of the millions of babies that have and will be aborted in this nation.
God hates the hands that shed innocent blood (Proverbs 6). You may have said it in jest but God does not, the nations that forget Him will be turned into hell. How can God bless a nation that kills it's own flesh and blood? I believe this is no time for rejoicing for any person who loves their country and certainly not for anyone who loves their God and knows that life is a gift from His hand.
