my repub sister posted this on facebook.

I challenge every person I know to make a commitment that no matter the outcome of tomorrow's election, they will solemnly vow to remain a part of a united front of the citizens of this great country. Go ahead, make my day (she says to the empty chair next to her).

i was the only one who answered. i said "i will not take that vow". am i bad person. can't imagine myself supporting romney.

But, whatever it means, I'm against it. I won't get behind a cheat, liar, and warmonger.

6. hmm, sounds like she thinks rmoney is going to win, and wants all the dems to play nice. ask

her why it was that the repukes have not played nice for the last 4 years--they certainly did not "present a united front of the citizens" .

so, no, if that hateful little sociopath steals the election, I will NOT play nice. I do not support liars, thieves, and incompetent hacks.

7. Romney is a liar with an authoritarian personality.

No. I will not support any liar who has an authoritarian personality.

It's a common type in history -- and always dangerous.

Why do you feel the need to be disrespectful towards her?

11. My question is... Where was this sentiment during 2008 when things were in free fall?

Though yes, I intend to remain a part of this great country.

As for being part of a united front of citizens, well... I'll believe that, when I see it. I tend to be civil regardless.
