50. I can't say I'm sorry Obama won
Sat Nov 24, 2012, 02:47 PM
Nov 2012

because I'm very thankful he won.

Perhaps that's not the outcome you needed to make you happy this month?

I do find it odd that a poster who mocked Sandy victims for not being able to wait a month for power - those ungrateful, lazy, freeloaders - is now whining that nobody respects his self-fucking-pity.

If you have nothing to be thankful for, go volunteer at the local homeless shelter or veterans' home.
