I could not believe this happened to me like it did, but I can't sleep and as I laid in bed trying to go to sleep I started crying and thought of the reasons I cried about this election and not any others and came to this conclusion so I wrote it out. It is long but I have to share it with someone so why not friends on line...here goes....It is not copy righted and most likely won't be. I would love to put it on face book but it is so long...

I cryed last Tuesday night because I was happy about the outcome of the election and I'm retired.



LAST NIGHT I CRIED (Written by Anna)

I cried last night for a Great Nation lost as we know it.

I cried last night for all the children who will never know but by story about what a great Nation this was as some parents, the grandparents and great grandparents knows it now.

I cried last night for each unborn baby that won't have chance to have dreams.

I cried last night for the dream that Martin Luther King had. That all men and women be treated equal.

I cried last night for those who are taking away our rights by tearing our Constitution apart piece by piece.

I cried last night as I thought of other things that could be tore down also, all because someone may not like it. Mount Rushmore, The Statue of Liberty just to name a couple.

I cried last night for our Military and their families for those who fought and paid the ultimate price with their life and for those who are fighting now for our freedom as we know it now because, those dreams are soon to tumble down as well.

I cried last night as I lay and thought of things, like being able to at one time pray in school and say the pledge. All those days are gone because someone decided they didn't believe in God and wanted them to be removed from our schools.

I cried last night when I thought there would only be a little thought here and there to tell a story to children who may not believe them. Or would tell the person "oh your old" and laugh the story off.

I cried last night for each and every elected official who let their country and it's people down.

I cried last night for the thought of maybe one day in the not so distant future that I may not be able to attend a church due to people who don't want it to happen.

I cried last night for each and every blood drop by someone who loved this country.

I cried last night for each Police Officer as they are going to be the ones who have to do what they are told about keeping the laws under control.

I cried last night for each and every news reporter who kept the true things off the air so people would not know what was really happening and laugh about it.

I cried last night as I could see my dreams for my great grand babies going up in smoke because people hate the US so bad they want to take it away from us.

Its interesting that the Red states take more from the Government than the Blue states and they voted Romney!It kind of blows a hole in Foxs theory. I worked no less than 70 hrs a week for the last 18yrs and as many as 85 hrs in a week and Romney considered me the 47%, Go figure.

The funny thing about a free phone is that it was signed into law by Bush in order to give those who could not afford a phone with an emergency lifeline. Somehow FOX twisted this into an Obamaphone.

Fox is staffed by professionals. Professional pundits that get paid very nicely to follow the strict guidelines set forth by Roger Ailes the President of Fox News. They do not care about anything but following the extreme right's ideology. Fox News has the highest ratings and makes more money than any other TV News network. They maintain a strict code and create their own spin on subjects. The network is a wonder in both marketing and promotion. However, they learned a lesson from this election. As someone who has worked in advertising and marketing I know for a fact that they broke one of the cardinal rules of marketing and promotion...they started to actually believe their own scripts and press. I believe that Fox news actually caused Romney supporters to stay home on election day. They accomplished this by repeating the same idea over and over again for the two days prior to the election. Dick Morris was certain, it was a lock, Karl Rove was sure it was a done deal and countless other talking heads on Fox News Network looked into the cameras and told their viewers that Romney was without a doubt going to win the election. I believe that their viewers, the same ones who never turn the channel because they have been told by Fox that every other media outlet is biased against the truth, these viewers who hang on every word the comes out of the bubble-headed bleach blonde on Fox & Friends...stayed home on election day...because it was a sure thing.

Nice imagination there.

In reality, they also had Larry Sabato on who was predicting a likely Obama win. Dick Morris was an outlier on the show predicting a Romney landslide. I don't recall Rove going as far out on a limb as Morris but I'll grant that he was on the same page as Morris. I don't recall or didn't see what the prime time lineup said but the reporting I recall from Fox news people was that the election, according to the polls, was going to be the closest in history. Hardly a reason to be overconfident and stay home.

Did you see Rove on election night. He refused to believe that Ohio was going for Obama and insisted that Megyn Kelly go into the next studio and fing out why the analysts were calling it for Obama.
Rove and Morris are dead (credibility wise) and Obama is alive.
