		<description>Kristin, since you&#039;re begging for a compliment, Congrats to you for serving your country.  Doesn&#039;t sound like you really enjoyed it.


&lt;blockquote&gt;Americaâ€™s reputation is diddly squat now. Americans are  hated around the world and are sneerd at because of the actions of Mr. George W. Bush. He has singlehandedly changed our surplus in the Clinton years to a huge deficit.&lt;/blockquote&gt;


America&#039;s reputation around the world has nothing to do with the deficit.  We are hated because we stood our grounds after 9/11 and wouldn&#039;t buckle under terrorism like France, Spain, etc.   If standing up for what is right means we are hated: so be it.  I&#039;d rather be hated for doing right, then be laughed at for being weak. 



&lt;blockquote&gt;Also, if you remember correctly, Mr. McCain voted for the same bailout package that President Elect Obama did. That is the single most socialist piece of legislation to ever pass through our House and Senate.&lt;/blockquote&gt;



And your point about bringing up that John McCain and Barry voted for the same bailout bill proves what?  Nothing.  They BOTH did it, so don&#039;t keep throwing it up in people&#039;s faces.  YOUR guy voted for it ... you just said so.</description>

		<description>Yes happy, I was proud: Proud enough to serve, Proud enough to defend it, Proud enough to put up with 8 years of liberal crap against the President and his administration because he loves this country.

		<description>Yes, we&#039;re proud of &quot;Bush &amp; McCain&quot;.  Just like you&#039;re proud of Obama despite little experience, voting &quot;Present&quot;, 20 years in the pew of a church with a hate-filled pastor, friendships with radical terrorists like Ayers and criminals like Rezko, etc etc etc.

You might want to make sure you&#039;re not standing on the bridge before you set fire to it.</description>

		<description>uh...no, I didn&#039;t say you shouldn&#039;t feel anything or was being intolerant.  You can tit for tat all you want, bless you on your journey.

I&#039;m just wondering if you were actually proud of the Bush &amp; McCain. Is that a hard question to answer?</description>

		<description>Michelle Obama wasn&#039;t proud of her country until her husband started running for President. 

I can not be proud of my country now for having this country having elected her husband. 

Tit for Tat.

My grandmother was a proud Democrat long before the party went communist.  I&#039;m glad she can&#039;t witness the turn her party has taken.  She&#039;d be ashamed of it. 

PS: BTW, a lot of the feelings and statements by Republicans today are the same as the ones said or felt by Democrats when Bush won.  Are you saying I can&#039;t feel or say them?   Tsk Tsk .. so much for tolerance.</description>

		<description>Let me get this straight...

Were you proud of this country before today? Proud of GWB and his deficit spending policies that have put this Country in serious risk. Or were you proud of McCain, a guy who barely graduated from Naval Academy, lost 5 planes as an aviator, got caught in the Keating 5 scandal and ran a miserable campaign that had the GOP elite fleeing from him like rats off a sinking ship?

Other than them being capable of spreading fear and being exceedingly rich, white and inept, what exactly were you proud of before today?

PS- Although I get your meaning, it is disturbing to read that your glad your Grandma is dead. It&#039;s just a strange thing to say.</description>

		<description>I find Kristin&#039;s comments laughable. When the left, the media and parts of the world all collectively damned our sitting president, rejected him, accused him of stealing an election, etc..., I can bet you Kristin was NOT singing that tune. Save the hypocrisy, sweetheart for someone who will buy it.

As for patriotism and election frustration, I believe Jo has them both. Her husband proudly and bravely served this country and she sacrificed while he did it. She is as patriotic as they come. She has also earned the right to express her disdain for the outcome of this election as she pleases.

		<description>I served in the United States Navy under George W. Bush.  He was my president, and for all intensive purposes, my boss.  I&#039;m not sure what actions were thrown up in my face, but I am an advocate of unity no matter who the president is.

America&#039;s reputation is diddly squat now.  Americans are hated around the world and are sneerd at because of the actions of Mr. George W. Bush.  He has singlehandedly changed our surplus in the Clinton years to a huge deficit.  
Also, if you remember correctly, Mr. McCain voted for the same bailout package that President Elect Obama did.  That is the single most socialist piece of legislation to ever pass through our House and Senate.</description>

		<description>I am embarassed for this country and what it has done.  

America&#039;s reputation won&#039;t mean diddly squat after the communist detroys it from within.

I did not denounce him.  I&#039;m stating the same fact you liberals stated when George Bush was elected.  They said he wasn&#039;t their president.  What&#039;s good for the goose, is good for the gander.  If you don&#039;t like your own sides&#039; actions thrown back in your face, you should have thought about the unity you&#039;re demanding from me eight years ago.</description>

		<description>For a Republican who supported a campaign that tried to win the White House based on a platform of &quot;patriotism&quot;, your post should embarrass you!  Conservatives thought that they had a monopoly on national pride and patriotism while supporting an administration that led this country down the toilet.  You should be proud today that Americans everywhere made their voices heard.  You should not attempt to stifle those voices, as it is our right and duty as citizens of this country to make our voices heard.
America&#039;s reputation in the rest of the world has been restored.  The road to true change and real leadership is before us.  Even if you do not agree with America&#039;s decision, you should still stand and fight for a better America instead of denouncing her leader and your fellow citizens.</description>
