Coming to terms with my feelings. Long, sorry.

Nope! You didn't throw away your girlfriend, your mother and your best friend who voted for Obama. You love them for whom they are as a wonderful person not because of who they voted for President. That's the big difference between you and Tsing Tao.

Thanksgiving is coming .. let's us ( all of us ) just give Thanks to all the blessings in our lives. Like John Lennon famous sayings ~ it matters Not who you love, where you love, why you love, when you love or how you love, it matters only that you love lol

make love, not war

You're right, there is a paradox in my position. The girlfriend offered to vote for Romney if it was important to me so that defused my anger completely and I told her I wanted her to vote however her heart indicated to her that she should.

My best friend has been such a good person over the years and he has never rubbed my nose in the fact that I support the losing team. He is very careful to not bring up politics and if we discuss politics at all it is because I've brought up the subject.

The people I'm discarding are extended family members that I don't see frequently and who like to bring up politics at the dinner table. They enjoy gloating over winning and are comfortable asserting that their political outlook is smart and anyone who does not hold the same view is stupid. The become almost rabid with spittle flying out of their mouth and their eyes nearly popping out of the sockets when George Bush is mentioned. The truth is that they probably don't want to be around me during the holidays as much as I don't want to be around them. Its not a tragedy, it is just an inevitable thing really.

Anyway, you pointed that out politely so I thought I would respond in kind.

I'm not sure that idiot knows what the "ignore function" is. I cannot see your posts, ~~~. Type all you want. I can only see them when someone quotes you.

Besides, when I want you to open your mouth, I'll unzip my fly. Hippy.

Your girlfriend is great you are a very lucky guy

She offered to vote for Romney but you asked her to follow her heart to vote. It shows that you know how to love and respect and you are not a selfish guy

I voted for Romney but I don't resent people who voted for Obama. However, I am afraid of those people like your extended family members too!

The winner takes it all !!! That's the rule of the game/politics !! So Obama won.. life goes on, it's not the end of the world. I know deep in your heart you are still a very good man eventhough you said you don't care but I know you do!

Dickhead Tsing Tao ! You are not only a Horrible Loser you are also a Very Bad Liar! how come you know 377OHMS and PT and I are talking about you and how you know I am a female if you didn't read all my postings ???The true is you didn't put me on ignore !

Hey Dickhead Tsing Tao! unzip your fly fast so that I can break it into pieces to feed a dog! ( It's better your mom to have a dog than to have a son like you ! even a dog knows how to be thankful to their master who raised and feed him! ) Btw, Yours is really too small, too tiny, too soft, too weak !!! even the dog doesn't want it here in USA!!! You hated the people and the country here, you should migrate to Thailand to start a new life as a "ladyboy" in Pattaya, Thailand !

+1

Sounds so similar to my posts before the election. Yes, I'm glad Obama won, but I agree with you, life goes on, regardless of who wins an election. This is still America, and God Bless America.

OK, OK, I am hearing rattles from some, not my intention. I have had to stop discussing politics with my family members at times. I would never discard them, no matter how far out on the family tree. Family is just too important IMO.

Now, as to your last posting, a bit much IMO. This is an internet forum, no need for getting all pissy and shitty with anyone. I think you're a better person. I feel the same way about Tsing.

My #1 employee is a Chinese girl named Tong. I'm very proud because I "discovered" her. She was brought to me and was totally under-utilized in her previous position. Management just had no idea what to do with her and they brought her over to my office a few years back and asked if I could use her. I knew she had an MSEE from Cornell and so I looked at her and said I could use her if she would like to work in my group. She agreed.

She showed up her first day and I though "oh man she looks fragile" but she has turned out to be tough as nails and has a fearsome intellect. She is *extremely* reserved and I slowly began to understand that she could handle the emotional and heated office politics at my level. She surpassed all of the men and became my assistant. She is the one I take to tough meetings because she doesn't become flustered and she has a nearly photographic memory similar to my own. Her English is very difficult to understand but I have learned to understand what she is saying over time. She is something like a tiger.

She has been with me for years now and has had 2 babies and still works full-time. Her mom stays with her and takes care of the kids when she is at work. She is married to a Philippine guy.

The reason that I didn't believe you were a Chinese girl is that you are so different from Tong. As I said, she is very reserved and you seem to be quite bold. She is reticent and you are expressive. I guess I believe you now so I hope you don't make a fool out of me and reveal that you are a fat guy from New Jersey or something like that. It is difficult for me to trust people already as it is.

Good for you, very understanding.

How many employees do you have currently? Are you affected by the ACA rules yet? Just wondering.
