OBAMA WINS!!! (Fun with the REAL numbers)

Ever since election day on November 4th., my LIBERAL friends have been needling me because of Barack Hussein Obama's election over John McCain.

Fact is....They deserve to gloat! With very few exceptions....Our Presidential candidate and the GOP slate in general got our collective asses kicked - across the country! (To this day, we STILL haven't beaten a washed up, never funny, former comedian from Saturday Night Live, Al -no talent- Franken!) It's simply amazing, that as a party, we could have done this badly.

But before I watch my hippie-socialist-leaning-buddies go romping through the fields of flowers extolling the virtues of spreading MY wealth around to others....I figured I better give them a small mental enema & depress them just a little. (Believe me this should be depressing for all Americans - note that I said it should be.) Unfortunately what I'm about to tell you won't make one bit of difference to many of you, because most Americans have already forgotten about the election and are "back at the Mall" as George Carlin used to say!

So, before all you Liberal pinko Democratz start slapping yourselves on the back because "NOW WE HAVE A MANDATE!" You had better take a look at the numbers and reign in your collective enthusiasms........
  • As of July 2008, the population of the United States was 303,000,000 people.
  • Nearly 218,000,000 (71.9%) are over the age of 18 and eligible to vote in elections.
  • Less than 60% (59.4%) of eligible voters, voted. (129,400,000 voted of 218,000,000 eligible)
  • That's only 42.7% of the total American population!
  • A President of the United States was elected by LESS THAN HALF of the American Population.
  • A President of the United States was elected by LESS THAN A THIRD of all eligible voters.
Barack Hussein Obama received votes from 69,500,000 Americans - or 22.9% of the American population - 31.9% of all eligible voters - 53.7% of those Americans who voted.

John McCain received votes from 59,900,000 Americans - or 19.8% of the American population - 27.5% of all eligible voters - 46.2% of those Americans who voted.

As a country ... as a people, we should be ASHAMED that more than 88 million 600 thousand of our friends and neighbors eligible to vote in this election, DIDN'T VOTE!!!

It's simply UNFATHOMABLE to me, that so many Americans find something else - more important than participating in the system THAT HAS GIVEN THEM EVERYTHING!

Can't you just for one day understand that there is something more important than you.

DUM SPIRO SPERO!
