I heard a guy today say that Obama had the Al-Qaeda vote
That they had endorsed him.

I wasn't sure if he was being sarcastic or not. Before that he sounded kind of for Obama. It was while I was getting a haircut, I had just finished and was paying when he started talking about politics with the girls who worked there. They wanted to know the EVs so I told them what it was and everything and as I started walking out, he said that.

As I said, I couldn't tell if he was joking, but I got out of there before I started trouble, lol.

Now that he's won, it's easier to let that stuff go. But still, I fear for our country, for every nutty RWer like Michele Bachmann there are one hundred thousand who have voted for her. And all over it's the same thing. Too many people are goofy like that. All that hate and fear. It bothers me.
