Pics at the top...The election is over...Get Over It

The altered and disrespectful pictures existed through the campaign and obviously are continuing - they were in poor taste then and they are still in poor taste.

People have put up unflattering pickers of Hilary Clinton, President Bush and just about every other major political player. Why should Obama get special treatment. I agree that is picutre is in bad taste. But then so have a lot of the pictures that have been on here sense the primary started.

Yes, they are ready to start impeachment even before he takes office. This is very closed minded to me. I did not think Bush Jr was so swift, but I never was as nasty as those who are really angry this election.

I agree, I typically don't notice the pictures at the top (and when I do, they are usually funny and don't cross the line into inappropriate). But the other day I actually went out of my way to minus that "Obama Bin Laden" picture, that was just obscene. Usually people here don't get that disgusting, or maybe I'm just blissfully ignorant of it, but especially now that the election is over, there is no place for that kind of smut.

It is pitiful. I was tired of the election before it was over, now I'm REALLY tired of it. Complaining won't change the outcome.

I agree completely, I think it is very disrespectful and pitiful. I think it's clear that not only is Barack Obama not an Arab but he's certainly not a terrorist and he certainly has nothing to do with Bin Laden other than the fact that he has pledged to work harder than Bush to find Bin Laden. So I really don't get it.

It seems that quite often, after an election, there are always people who get bitter when the their desired candidate loses. It seems that despite John Kerry's popularity four years ago, Bush's victory was somehow won fairly & legitimately. It did take a while for the Kerry supporters to get over the surprise that they got hit with. This election has been the most brutal, & that is evident here on MyLot also, from many deleted discussions, & some users that actually got banned to the point that all of their discussions, responses, & comments got deleted also. Also, star ratings have also dropped, despite the MyLot guidelines stating that we should not give people a negative rating just because you disagree with them. I am now mentioning that I was not really an Obama supporter, & believed that McCain was the lessor of two evils. However, the way I see it, we need to see what Obama does after he gets sworn in on Jan 20th, 2009, & give him a chance to prove himself. I didn't like Obama's VP pick, but it was only because I was one of those that was hoping that he would pick Hillary, & it was probably because I don't have much of an idea where Biden stands on things. However, we do need to move forward & see what happens, & stop looking back.

see the one of Obama as Bin Laden's disappeared off the top of the page but what's with the badly photoshopped one suggesting everybody who wears a turban (which he doesn't) is automatically scary?

And here I thought it was us who needed to get over it...lol! Yes, to answer your question, I do also find it pitiful. Also, in all fairness, the majority of those photos of Bush that X posted are maybe a tad disrespectful but they don't cross the line anywhere near to what the one of Obama does. Oh, well, I guess the ones who post these pictures aren't much for reading and writing. Annie

Why did I never hear you complain about all the offensive images with Bush's face photoshopped in? Hmmm? That election ended 4 years ago. Shouldn't those people get over it already? Was four years not enough time, but a week is?

Your kidding right? Just get over it? He won, just get over it? don't question or ridicule, he won, just get over it? Interesting. Yet one need not go in more than 10 pages in to the image section to find this: http://www.mylot.com/w/image/1870051.aspx http://www.mylot.com/w/image/1870052.aspx or 12 for this: http://www.mylot.com/w/image/1816122.aspx http://www.mylot.com/w/image/1816124.aspx and lets see what page 14 brings us: http://www.mylot.com/w/image/1579871.aspx or 17: http://www.mylot.com/w/image/1416410.aspx and here we are at 19: http://www.mylot.com/w/image/1108873.aspx oh look, page 20 and still going strong: http://www.mylot.com/w/image/848302.aspx So, the elections are over, just get over it?

I find it pitiful and distastful that we can't move on from this whole Obama Osama thing. What is most annoying is the person uploading...doesn't really post in politics.

Don't have much feelings about it one way or the other.

It happens to every president. Republicans and democrats do it. Look at what happened when Gore lost, or when Kerry lost. Man talk about some poor sports. Democrats still haven't gotten over it.

Except for a couple of occasions I vote Republican. In the 2000 primary I didn't vote of Bush, but when he got the nomination I voted for him for President and I did again in 2004 and I have never been sorry that I did. I was not happy when Obama was elected, but I've accepted it and will pray that he makes right decisions for the welfare of this nation. What gets me is the short memory so many on the Democrat side have. For the past eight years Democrats from top to bottom have whined and complained that Bush stole both elections which simply isn't the truth; and in all of the past eight years, I've never heard Bush say a disparaging word about anyone, not even those who have told vicious lies about him.
