From my conservative FB friends:

*crickets*

[CallingAllAngels]

Mine are blowing up my feed, including threatening to move to Texas. Is Texas the new Canada?

[ecs7609]

Haha, I have family and friends threatening to move to Canada AND one of them IS from Canada. lol

[josieposy]

From my feed: "at least we'll have birth control so we don't get pregnant while we're getting screwed."

[mrsjuleshs]

I am in TX, they are blowing it up. It is HILARIOUS!!!

[OscarQ]

I have one in tears and considering moving to Canada. Another friend nicely explained that's the wrong direction to head if she doesn't like the outcome of the election.

My sister had one who said he might as well walk to the worst area of our city and just start handing out his money.

And my 15 yo cousin said he "can't take another four years of this". His dad owns a hedge fund. I think he'll suffer through just fine.

[beans]

from mine: expressions of sadness and prayers. and the continued battle for "religious freedoms"

And tons of people talking about how the rest of the world is laughing at our choices and basically other sentiments indicating how little they know about foreign policy/relations.

[josieposy]

Lots of people bitching about the electoral college right now.

[eddy]

I am in Iowa. All of the most vocal cons are now complaining at how rude people are lol. #butthurt2012

It's certainly my plan. Of course, that's nothing new. Makes a lot more sense than Canada though. I think I'll rename my downpayment savings account my "relocate to TX" account.

[biggulp15]

Lots of electoral college complaints, sorrow over the next four years, "goodbye healthcare as we know it", and implications that Americans are just lazy and expect more handouts.

About what I expected.

Texas has no personal state income tax. I know a wealthy business owner moving there specifically because of this.

[statlerwaldorf]

Person 1: Bright side? Only 4 more years! And no more political ads for a while. Good night all!

Person 2: Problem is we won't have a country to save by then Person 1. We will be communist muslims.

Neither does Florida or Nevada. I forget what the other states without it are.

The best is a friend of mine from Maryland who encouraged all her friends to vote yes on 6 so her brother and his boyfriend can get married.

Then someone called her out for being a republican and she claimed that yes, she's a republican, because soon when she is a rich and famous actress she will have a lot of money and will want to keep it. LOL.

True story: I wrote a rather lengthy paper in grad school about communism and Muslims. There were three main parts.

Conclusion: there are/were some minor communist parties/orgs in the Middle east, but for the most part, Muslims don't like communism. Even though, like Christians, they are supposed to give alms to the poor and stuff.

From my sister: is thinking this is a sad, sad day for the people of the US... Still glad I exercised my right to vote because now I have every right to bitch & moan.

From a HS friend: Well that just goes to show you.. hard work, honesty, morals... never pay off. I bet Obama just shit his pants "OMG I won again, are you kidding.. so I guess this time around I actually have to do something" Its a shame that he promised so much, and that all the ppl that voted for him will be let down, again! He doesnt believe in equality.. cmon ppl he didn't believe in that the whole time he was in office but 6 months before election he changes his mind... coincidence??? Nahh. I wish I could have voted for Ted Nugent... Goodbye America.

[JLN]

I got "Scared and sad at the same time. It's gonna be a long 4 years. Prayer is urgent!!"

and "I can't say I'll be thankful for THIS on Thanksgiving"

and "Ignorance is Bliss" from one of my most conservative friends.

[sunny]

eh, I'll let them lick their wounds. If obama had lost I would have cried, so I can understand their disappointment if their candidate of choice didn't win.

No personal income tax in South Dakota, but they do have corporate income tax.

True. I've been there, and probably will be there again before its all said and done.

[pinkeggs]

I see "I am literally shaking, I am so scared" and "God help us".

Drama llamas lol

[ecs7609]

My cousin updated her status again with this..."Today i am thankful for god most of all. I know he will protect us against the evil that is looming. Since today confirms that the end is near ill pray every night to have mercy on my soul. I may not be perfect, but thats why he died for us. So thankyou god, for your future protection of the good people in this condemned country."

[ecs7609]

Here's another one from someone else..."It saddens me to think my children will not be able to grow up in the wonderful country of America like I knew it! Very sad to have a leader with no morals. But still I will trust God-he is the ultimate one in control!"

I fail to see how that's a bad thing.
