The Official "We're Having a WONDERFUL DAY" Thread
Edited on Wed Nov-08-06 01:34 PM by YOY
Post here if you just want to say how happy you are!

I feel as though OUR country is actually coming back! I've said I have felt the tide turn before, but now I actually feel it. I actully cried when I heard about the cutting of Interest Rates on student loans...maybe we can actually afford to buy a house now and live in non-indentured servitude now.

I'm happy because I voted.

I'm happy because I fought the good fight.

I'm happy because Webb won.

I'm happy because Sherrod Brown, a family friend, won.

I'm happy for Pennsylvania, Montana, and all other states with good people who know how to say enough is enough.

I'm happy because Rumsfeld is going bye bye.

I'm happy because my daughter has a future and it is not a classist, racist, society that will define it.

2. Check this freeper post out.
To: Soul Seeker
"...shock,,,"
In his present state of mind, the President should not be up there. He is rambling, dissembling and providing great ammunition for further attacks on his character and credibility.

3. It has been years since I felt so good about this nation and my hopes
for a better future for all citizens not just the wealthiest. This a first bright light in a much, much improved future.

5. I'm suprised that the electoral process functioned correctly.
And very happy. It's a good win, a strong step in this long battle.

8. I still can't quite believe it....
After the 2000 and 2004 debacles, I'm having a very hard time letting my guard down. Unfortunately, we are still stuck with another four years of Tommy "the tool" Pawlenty as the governor of Minnesota.

But otherwise, I'm prepared to be thrilled when ya'll convince me that the rug won't be pulled out from under us somewhere, like Virginia.

16. Look at all they have put us through
...in the past six, long years: the stolen 2000 election, 9/11, the anthrax scare, invasion of Iraq, destruction of our nation's reputation, yet another stolen election, and destruction of our faith in our own democracy with abuse of power, desecration of our constitution, manipulation of the vote... It has been hell. I could hardly believe it last night to hear that Blackwell had been ousted. I burst into tears, because of all they have done to us. But with checks and balances again, it does seem their reign of terror is over.

19. Thanks, eowyn! Well said.
I'm feeling a good cry coming on, myself! The last six years have been so dark and almost hopeless. Whether we gain Virginia or not, our country is looking like a much healthier place today.

9. This year has been so shitty for me until last night
My dad died in April of a heart attack, both my wife and I have been going through depression, and two of my favorite teams lost heartbreaking Game 7s at home in the NBA and MLB playoffs (Spurs and Mets). Not to mention I felt like Bush and the Republicans were destroying America and that they would do whatever it took to retain their power. Then the blue wave washed over the land and now I feel nothing but hope for this country. Once again I can truly say I'm proud to be an American! OH WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!

11. The Reign of Witches has Ended!!! yippeeeee!
And we have waited SOooo long for this to come true. It is a great day...

"A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt. ... If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake. Better luck, therefore, to us all; and health, happiness, & friendly salutations to yourself. "
(Signed) THOMAS JEFFERSON

12. I am
I feel literally like a weight has been lifted. My muscles are as relaxed as if I just had a massage- and not one of those Meth ones that seem to be popular now.

Really just calmer than I have been in years. It is so nice.

14. I'm happy because I did some campaign work the other day
and my sister got to vote for the first time. It appears that all her/our candidates won and I'm happy for that. I'm happy we won the House, the majority of governorships, and most likely the senate!
:woohoo:

18. I happy because my homestate of Ohio swung blue ...
I'm happy because we've won the Congress.

I'm happy because Rummy's out.

I'm happy because all that faith I put in people, believing they'd see through the BS, wasn't missplaced after all.
