As An American, I Want The World To Know

To me it seemed that 90% of the rest of the world wanted the election result you gave them, so what's to apologize for? The world did not want Romney at the hands of the most dangerous military power on the planet.

Obama isn't much better, but at least we've seen how he operates and feel certain we can survive four more of that. Mitt on the other hand made it clear to all he could not be trusted with this power.

He may have been good for America, but as outsiders we really only worry about what is good and bad for the planet, and Mitt's foreign policy sound bytes from his campaigning quickly put him in the bad batch.

I guess the say 60% that didn't write Romney off because of him being a Mormon, simply saw him as a man who would walk into a diplomacy meeting with his fists raised.

I can't remember exact figures, but typically the Democrats do not get 90+% support over Republicans even in the communist bastion, currently under a heavy capitalistic right wind. Even the progress party here who tries to sort of be republican socialists, didn't speak warm about Romney. There were a few selected exceptions, but their bilderberger party leader had an unusual low profile. Perhaps she didn't want any Romney inspired questions ahead of our own elections....

So yeah no apologies needed. There wasn't a need even when you gave Bush a second term in my opinion, but it was given and accepted then, and so when history repeats your apology for giving Obama a second term is forgiven too.

Well, what are our options??? a Muslim who entices and encourage the Muslim Brotherhood to behave in less than God loving ways? Our land will be overcome with Sharia Law


Oh, boy I can hear it coming now.....

I have never cried as a result of election results till last night. I could not believe I was crying like a baby.

The process of democracy made you cry. Was it tears of joy at a modern nation choosing its own leader or the tears of a child at not getting its own way

Tears for the demise of a once great nation

Yeah, Yeah, 'Good Americans' who dont want there health service free at the point of contact for the people that need it most. Your all feckin heart.

Uh, huh. Meanwhile you people of great 'compassion' are killing your elderly.....just like you did my father-in-law. He was 'too old to treat', too.

Don't worry after the lying scumbag Powell lied about WMD's and terrorists in Iraq or the costly invasion of Afghanistan (while only like 1/10th the number of people died in 9/11 then die yearly in DUI crashes) the world DOES NOT WANT conservatives in power in the US.

That being said it's unfortunate that Obama still does drone assassinations, still has Guantanamo open, still hasn't withdrawn from Afghanistan and hasn't cleaned up wallstreet (not that we are much better in that regard over here in Europe :S) but on all these issues Romney would actually still be worse then Obama.

Oh, boy I can hear it coming now.....

can anyone specifically list something they HAVE lost? everyone is crying and freaking out, but i just see business as usual...

job market sucks, but it was gonna suck anyway.

poor are still poor.

billionares are still billionares.

everyone in the middle is still paying for everyone else.

mitt would not have changed anything and if he did not by much and not overnight.

get a fucking grip people.

So the republicans are lying scumbags for what they did, but Obama drone bombs sovereign nations and continues the wars and that's just "unfortunate". Yeah, you're not biased at all.

Obama's drone killings or even the invasion of Libya did not kill 600.000 (or like 30 thousand 9/11's, if the US sustained a 9/11 on a daily since 2001 it would not have lost as many lives as Iraq) civilians like for example the Iraq war.

great... so only people in other countries have not lost their minds... everyone is freaking out, but NOTHING HAS CHANGED!

We are having carpet media coverage of the U.S. elections in the UK..
People here are generally glad at the result; for instance at work today our secretary even bought us all cakes because she was 'relieved that we're not all going to be at risk of being nuked by some right-wing fanatic God botherer's crazy ideas"!
We all need to learn to live with less consumption. It's not an easy road to the next level, the consumptive past is not coming back anywhere in the west; you can be 'great' in other ways..
Mostly we rather like our NHS ( like your 'Obamacare' ), and the conservatives here are always trying to 'privatise' bits of it, (and reduce benefits), but that's never popular (although the press is always trying to paint all beneficiaries as 'idle', obese self-harming etc.) Give it time. It's true that we pay a lot in taxes for our social infrastructure, but most feel that generally the long term results are worth it, i.e, (mostly) low crime as people are further from desperation when they find themselves out of luck; in finance as well as health.
Of course it's not all good, I know all the shitty stuff, believe me, but we're all in roughly the same boat !
Relax, I'm sure that most here know that there are "good Americans", and that the picture that the media paints of the U.S is not accurate; it works both ways, I have nice teeth..
Okay, that last bit was a lie, I have shitty teeth ;)

This is NOT what I wanted.

I am appalled at my countrys' face on this planet. I am embarrassed for her behavior and haughty attitude.

You people in foreign lands must really think we are all like what you see on TV and hear about in the media.

You don't get it. We people in foreign lands are all commies (that's what your kind of american people always say), so we all together now laughing our asses off.

So now, just WHAT do we do now...?

Run to bunker?
Don't have one.

Buy gold and silver?
How...I don't make any more money today than I did yesterday.

Stock food and other goods?
Why, so the government can confiscateit?

Leave the country?
Where to....? Where is Shambala?

Stand and fight back?
You can't fight 'city hall".

Punch somebody?
Hmmmmmm naw. Not right either

I used to travel in the US quite a bit, but not any more, even my bank warned me that the US is a "high risk" country.

From my personal experience I agree with you that most Americans are good honest people, it's just that I also find Americans today very different. Apathetic comes to mind, and OP you also reflect that.

Why are Americans just accepting all that is happening? What happened to "land of the brave, home of the free?" Why are Americans giving up their freedoms daily? When did they start believing that helping each other was "socialist" but that paying the way for companies and politicians wasn't?

I think the real problem in America is that you all just throw up your hands and say dumb things like you can't fight city hall whereas you used to rise up together and stop things like ....say....the Vietnam war. Those were the Americans the world respected and envied. Quit apologizing for your country and go join forces with those who would reclaim it
