Some Republican reaction to Obama's re-election.

According to Boehner...since Repubs held on to the house, they "have JUST AS MUCH of a mandate" from the people as Obama and the Dems.

I'm stunned and ashamed that we don't provide our Republican politicians with mental health benefits in their insurance plan. :evil

You do, but it has unintended consequences. It makes them crazy.

The Republicans won't cooperate. Perhaps because they don't know how.

While I agree with "they don't know how" and will add "they just don't want to", I'm not so sure the GOP/TP will extend its reign of obstructionism ~ Obama cannot run again ~ which gives the GOP/TP an easier path than unseating an incumbent ~ if they DO continue their reign of obstructionism and we go into another recession, they risk aiding another Dem to win in 2016 ~

It would be interesting to hear Donald Trump's explanation for why he thinks the election was a sham and why he feels we don't have a democracy?

Barack Obama won both the electoral college and the popular vote. And his own party created Super PACs to try to buy the election.

On what grounds does Trump feel the election was a sham? I hope Piers Morgan has the opportunity to ask him that question sometime.

Nah! They can already say that about college football!

BTW guys, my wife is from Alabama so I'd kind of appreciate it if you laid off the stereotyping.

Still, I'd like someone like Piers Morgan to pin Trump down on national television to explaining his reason for saying the election was a sham and not democratic. Trump would either have to provide some sort of legitimate justification, or admit the election was fair and democratic and that people simply preferred Obama to Romney.

If Trump is forced to admit that, then the next question is to ask him why, then, he made such outlandish remarks.

Could you just imagine Trump squirming in his chair?! Lol

Alabama is a very racist state. It's not "stereotyping" to speak the truth.

Its Stereotyping to make the implication that people from Alabama are racist or stupid or ignorant.
You've got plenty of racist, stupid and ignorant people all over the US. I don't assume that Americans fit that description and I don't imply it either.

Yes, there are racists everywhere, but as you can see from the above map, most of the racist Tweets came from the Deep South. Of all 50 states, the heaviest concentration of racist Tweets came from Mississippi and Alabama. (Note those two states are the deepest green in the map to indicate those states had the heaviest concentration of racist Tweets.)

The problem with stereotyping, SciFi, is that it covers everyone indiscriminately ~ the same problem exists with over-arching generalities ~
