Humor a newb: if Romney steals--oh, sorry--"wins" the election, what will you do?
My brother is married to an Australian woman. They have a small business in Gladstone, Queensland. And there are flights from Seattle to Melbourne every day. I didn't consider this after the 2000 or 2004 elections, but a President Romney would make George W. Bush look like FDR.

Is Australia far enough to escape the fallout and the long-lasting nuclear winter after December 21?

Many folks aren't among the middle class anymore. Their wages don't justify a middle class lifestyle anymore.
It's costly to relocate. It's even worse if you're trying to relocate to a new country. In many industrialized countries, if you don't have a valuable skill set, you're likely to face costly hurdles just to get to the country you want to live in.
They have no choice but to endure the abuse. They are, in marketing terms, a captive audience. They'll be captive just long enough for the wealthy owners of this country to extract the last ounces of wealth from a dying middle class, and when they've sacked all that wealth, they'll start shredding what is left of the American people's human dignity.
Poor people have no luxury for dignity. They're too busy fighting for the crumbs until the last lights go out.
Then, they truly have nothing left to lose.

1) I would cry. A lot. I know this because I cried when Bush* was first selected. My brother saw me cry and though he voted for Gore, couldn't believe that I felt bad enough to cry over it. I guess I knew something my brother didn't know.
2) I would watch and wait and hope that Romney isn't as horrific as I believe he is. I am afraid he would rapidly outrank Bush* as the worst pResident in our history. I won't type the things I fear might happen, because they sound paranoid to myself even when I think them.
3) Hunker down and hope to wait it out. I believe I would take a defensive posture in all ways.
4) Get to work in that minute to elect representatives who might hold him in check and get him out of office post haste.
This is my country. I can't go anywhere else. Moreover, I don't want to. I'll be damned if I'll let a sleazeball sociopath force me out.
Finally, there is still time to GOTV to help ensure that horror show will never come to pass.

For belonging to a site that vilifies and despises rich people, Warpy sure has been bragging a lot lately about how much money she has. She says it over and over, without shame: "I inherited a whole bunch of money, so much so, that I can do anything I want. Anything." Nobody ever calls her on it.Boy did she dupe whoever passed it down to her. The dummies to me remind me of the type of people one hopes not to leave money too although many of them are very good personally at hiding their contempt and manipulation that they can easily dupe elderly into leaving them all. Mooching off of n older person can be mistaken for caring for them. I really despise dummies and I say what I just did because anyone who would braggert about the money they inherited probably didn't give a shit about the person who gave it to them and like their usually entitled nature they probably expected it to go right to them and were licking their chops in anticipation of the inevitable demise of that older person:(
So Jamaal is just sitting on his fat ass? A Romney win is the only reason he'd look for work? A perfect DUmmie!

9. If Romney "wins",
I'll probably look for work and start saving more money in hopes of moving to Canada or Europe with my GF overseas. For the sake of my physical well-being, I cannot live in a country governed by a chickenhawk again.
Where's Yavin4? He's been threatening to move for years. He should be all over this thread.
Just a different verse of the same song. They played it in 2004 and 2008.Promises, promises, nothing but promises. As we used to say in high school, "All show, and no go".
They're not going anywhere. They know if they tried their shit in any other country, they would be thrown in the gulag or executed. This goes especially the queers.

Over the last 4 years unemployment has remained high while wages have dropped and yet you will demand we vote to re-elect the people responsible.
If Romney wins the election, I'm leaving the country..............again

26. the one and only one good point in this IMPOSSIBLE SITUATION AS OBAMA ALREADY WON
is that if that happened, Jeb would NEVER run for president
but that is yet one more reason it didn't happen.
Obama won. the race is over. NOT ONE Obama voter switched sides. AND he gained voters.
and the theft machine was for the Bush's then and in the future NO Bush is running now.
be vigiliant though in 2016.
If I moved, I would move to the Santa Monica/Venice beachfront in California.
(which last I heard was still in the good ole' USA.)
Jet Blue is still giving away free tickets to people who want to leave if their candidate loses. Maybe a couple of those idiots should take them up on that?
Jet Blue is offering to pay your airfare, DUmbshits (http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/334164). Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
Is he, Jamaal numbers, the same idiot who almost started looking for a job so he could go on strike?

I remember that being posted, but can't recall which DUmmie said it.

64.I'd almost be willing to get a job in order to participate in A NATIONAL GENERAL STRIKE
Maybe they could float on some inner tubes to Cuba.
BTW, is it too early to be talking about The Camps, for the ones who don't leave? It takes a while to get them up and running, you know.
Leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I'll be back again, leaving on a jet plane nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.

Thank God for rich relatives.
The defrocked warped primitive has lived in New Mexico since 2000 or 2001, give or take a couple of years either way.
Is it the Peter, Paul and Mary version or the John Denver one?

PPM version I guess. Female lead singer. Didn't know Denver did one. Only thing Denver is know for around these part is Country Roads. Then he showed up at Mountaineer field some years back to sing it and was so drunk he forgot the lyrics. :rotf: :rotf:
BTW... they still play Country Roads at Mountie field after football games.
