It All Comes Back to HOPE

It dawned on me while watching Walz speak about his family; they named their daughter Hope after trying for years to have a child.

HOPE was the campaign message for Obama's first Presidential run.

And Bill Clinton came from little town in Arkansas named HOPE.

Hope Lange. Died of colitis.

Great speech! Nice to hear somebody with brains AND heart for a change.

Why did you have to drag Hope Lange into this? She wasn't bothering anyone.

OP put the bong down. Dude.

Leave OP alone!

Yes, OP! "I still believe in a place called Hope"!

"Ope" is a MN saying. Sort of like "oh geez". I'm sure someone will make the graphic.

What is wrong with you?

Hope was great with Obama...... until he put the very people responsible for the economic crisis in 2008 in charge when he became president.

I forgot about that poster. What a shyster he turned out to be

No shit, Sherlock!

What's the story with the poster, r10?

Was Obama better than Bush 2? Of course. Was he better than Trump? Double of course. But those are two very low bars. We expect more and better by our elected presidents regardless of political party. Joe Biden surprisingly delivered more in 3 1/2 years than Obama did in 8 years. The ACA was the only significant legislation Obama was responsible for. Obama's presidency would get a B minus rating if we were being generous. Biden gets somewhere in the B plus to A minus range.

It feels good to have hope again. What is the alternative? Trump/Vance--this is a shithole, WW III, we're all gonna die. I'm sick of their shit, and I hope the rest of the country is too. 🤞

Biden is going to go down as one of the most disastrous presidents in the past 100 years. I can't understand people who think he's been anything other than a disaster as the country sinks.

Obama was an inspirational empty suit when the country desperately needed and wanted a turn around from the path it had been on since the end of the Clinton years (although the Clinton years marked the beginning of the path we've been on since the mid 90s. Financialization, rise of the Deep State, expansion of NATO, de-industrialization)

R15 Sure, Boris.

Try to at least be clever, r16.

by Anonymousreply 17August 7, 2024 1:49 AM

Go back and finger yourself to a Trump picture R15.

by Anonymousreply 18August 7, 2024 1:49 AM

I'm not a Trump supporter, retard.

I can also see what's going on unlike you. I'm not a pathetic goosestepper.

by Anonymousreply 19August 7, 2024 1:51 AM

I'm cautiously optimistic. I've ensured that I'll be able to comfortably gloat from on high at the misfortune of my enemies, no matter the political outcome. And in the end, THAT'S what life is truly about ❤️

by Anonymousreply 20August 7, 2024 1:51 AM

I bet R15 is our Nikki Haley stalking horse troll. Also the Aspie troll.

by Anonymousreply 21August 7, 2024 1:53 AM

How do you even get out of bed and pretend to be a human, R15.

Elon and Putin can't pay you THAT much.

And yet you eagerly apply your tongue to their pale, double-wide, shit-encrusted asses for the privilege of them turning you into a permanent underclass.

Mmmmm, yes, Elon and Vlad, more! More!

End it now and stop embarrassing your family.

by Anonymousreply 22August 7, 2024 1:53 AM

R15 is why IGNORE POSTER exists.

by Anonymousreply 23August 7, 2024 2:21 AM

How old are you, r22?

You think what I wrote was embarrassing?

Anyway, have a nice few months everyone. I'll revisit this thread in November.

Get your insults in now

I give hope to men, I leave none for myself.

You sound like a drooling idiot, OP. I have second hand embarrassment from your post.

by Anonymousreply 27August 7, 2024 12:07 PM

Jesus you bitches are mean. I was on a high from watching the Harris/Walz rally and being excited and HOPEful for the first time in 8 years.
