Yes, Obama's In

[TijuanaTim]

Now gradually the global financial crisis will ease up. People will get slightly more disposable income again to spend through the turnstiles at St Marys hopefully and also maybe Americans and American players will be more warmly received.

[The Worm]

so lowe has been kicked out of the white house?

[TijuanaTim]

Let's hope for peace and stability and that leads to better times with Saints as a result.

Just goes to show how much money is wasted on campaigning - bought the world to it's knees. Now it's over we should be good again hey TT ?

I wondered how you might make that Saints related. Good effort!

Have we learnt nothing? You'll win nothing with kids etc

 

Let's hope he gets a core of experienced old heads in on loan...

[Ponty]

Good stuff, and hugely relevant at St Mary's. Bravo TT.

As we already had a US election thread in the Lounge, I've sent this one to TMS to let them know there too!

 

Good huh?

It's ashame that the "implied racism" rule has just come in.

 

We could have had a field day.

Barack Obama was joined on stage by Bruce Springsteen in Ohio on Sunday. There was one tense moment when somebody in the audience yelled out, 'Born in the USA!' And Obama said, 'For the last time, yes, damnit, I was!" --Jimmy Kimmel

 

People looking into Barack Obama's campaign contributions say that Obama may have received $3.3 million from abroad. Yeah. It turns out that broad is Oprah Winfrey

Awesome result. I managed to stay awake until about 3am by which time it was pretty clear that he was going to win.

 

I welled up when I saw Jesse Jackson crying

[Scudamore]

Could not care less who is president. The whole thing is f**king boring.

 

Do you want someone to start ranting at you as to the importance of this?

 

Because i can't be bothered personally...but i can get someone who can if you want?

[scott_saints]

I'm so glad that us Britons aren't like the yanks.

 

Loads of people in the crowd were crying when he was giving his talk afterwards. How f**king sad!

If a prime minister ever started shouting out "God bless the United Kingdom" and people started crying in their speeches, it would be time to end it all methinks.

[Penfold]

+1.

[scott_saints]

Will they change the name from White House to Black House?

Infraction on the way probably, but I did lol!

[Colinjb]

Doesn't matter who is president, once they lose ecconomic control of the majority of the world oil reserves it'll be time for war regardless...

[Penfold]

Obama has now gone into muber 1 spot on my death list. Im think some white supremecy nutter will shoot him

[once_bitterne]

Nah, Obama's about as black as TT! (f'sure....)

[INFLUENCED.COM]

I welled up when I saw Jesse Jackson crying

 

Is that the same Jesse Jackson who, when unaware of a mic being on, said he'd like to cut Obama's balls off for talking down to black people, I hope Obama's efforts and abilities are not diluted by continual reference to him being black, not only by white people but by black people too.

You what?

 

You really are a fruit cake. Why would you "well up" to see that stupid f*cker crying? Sad, get a life.

 

America should now get ready for a load of woolly, sh*t policies.

 

I saw Gordon Brown this morning on TV and almost wellied up. Wellied the f*cking TV through the window, Scottish c*nt.

[scott_saints]

I reckon if the prime minister shouted "God bless the Uk" everyone would point and laugh. And throw eggs.

 

Silly Americans.

This country could do with more patriotism

Good huh?

 

On the evidence so far, no.

[scott_saints]

Possibly. But I think our American friends are a bit OTT on the patriotism malarky.

[Hatch]

Watching it last night I was suprised to hear one commentator say while Obama was on stage with his family.

'....and there they are, the first black family to ever be allowed into the White House...'

 

I'm not sure he said what he meant.

[CabbageFace]

Goodbye world.

[Jillyanne]

Coincidence?

It's a conspiracy to destroy teh world and bring teh muzzlimbs to power imo.

[the stain]

Will they change the name from White House to Black House?

 

No they won't, because 'white' in this instance refers to the colour of the actual house (i.e. it's a white house) rather than the skin tone of the residents. So, unless they give the whole place a coat of paint or some sort of cladding, it will probably remain The White House. Do you see?

[CabbageFace]

He will declare war on Iran, and then will be shot within 2 years.

[Baj]

Yeltsin managed to turn the russian white house into the black house, though by a different method

[bridge too far]

To change the name to Black House would be on a par with changing the name of Buck House to Doe House just because we have a female monarch.

[Saint Martini]

He will declare war on Iran, and then will be shot within 2 years.

 

No that's what they say about McCain. He would have declared war on Iran and then died of natural causes within two years.

Its a Palace not a house BTF. It would be called Bird house if so.

I see what you did there - that's very clever .

 

I welled up because I'm old enough to remember how bad things were for black people not so very long ago. I empathised with Jesse Jackson's emotions in that so much had been achieved since the days of segregation (in a comparatively short time in fact).

 

Some of us sympathise and empathise with people, their pain and their joy - some of us are hard-nosed cynics.

 

I'm glad I'm the former and I'm glad I'm not a perpetually angry person like you. You must find it quite hard to live with yourself sometimes.

How old are you by the way?

As old as my tongue and a little bit older than my teeth

 

A lady never divulges her age, don't you know.

His wife is reasonable.

I have never had a problem having an erection, in fact I have one right now.
