Obama is going to take our golly waddles and give them to people who didn't work hard enough in law school, college, or high school to have the same golly waddles we do.
I worked (and still work...a lot...) for what I have, and give a decent amount away to charity (and my alma matres).

U.S. Stocks Advance in Biggest Election Day Rally Since 1984

Nov. 4 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stocks advanced in the biggest presidential Election Day rally in 24 years, led by energy and banking shares, on rebounding commodity prices and speculation the Treasury will bail out more financial companies.
General Electric Co. added 7.6 percent while CIT Group Inc. and Principal Financial Group Inc. climbed more than 22 percent after people briefed on the matter said the government may broaden the focus of its rescue program. Exxon Mobil Corp. and Chevron Corp. led all 40 energy shares in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index higher as oil gained. Archer Daniels Midland Co. rose 15 percent after profit more than doubled at the world's largest grain processor.
``The market has come to the conclusion that Armageddon is off the table,'' said Philip Orlando, who helps manage $330 billion as chief equity strategist at Federated Investors Inc. in New York. ``The elimination of the uncertainty of the campaign typically results in an end-of-year rally and you're starting to see that today.''
The S&P 500 added 39.45 points, or 4.1 percent, to 1,005.75, its first close above 1,000 since Oct. 13. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 305.45, or 3.3 percent, to 9,625.28. The Nasdaq Composite Index advanced 53.79, or 3.1 percent, to 1,780.12. Gains in Europe and Asia sent the MSCI World Index to a sixth straight advance.
Today's advance in the S&P 500 and Dow average are the biggest for a presidential Election Day since the NYSE first opened for trading during voting in 1984.
Obama is a "dOuche" and a "sOcialist." It's true.
That's why I made these stickers ESPECIALLY for ATL-ers. They use the "O" symbol to spell out special words...
