I'm sitting here in my office while the guys go orgasmic over zero

Well, time to ask them a few well placed questions maybe, like 'Why?' and pin them down on things like which executive order of the departing President is 0bama going to revoke?
Forces them to step out of the 0bamagasmatron and actually have to think. Unless you just want to sit there quietly and let your guts churn.
Up to you, but I find that a series of well placed questions about factual matters seems to quiet them down quite a bit.

Patience. If they are that worked up, you know it won't last long and then they'll just go to sleep.
Now that is funny!

In the heart of this liberal bastion, I haven't heard anyone talking politics or that excited that O won. These are mostly young college educated workers. Everybody is just keeping it to themselves, including me and my disdain for the man.

Let them have their moment of fantasy. Even if Obomination was more conservative than Ron Paul and more principled than an apostle even such a man couldn't get us out of the mess we are in. It's way beyond the scope of man to be able to fix the USS Titanic. Let them revel in their deception as it's not going to last. The black woman who was interviewed and said that Obama was going to pay her mortgate and put gas in her car are going to go from exaltation to devistation soon enough.

Same here. I'm in school and, aside from a very few people wearing obama t-shirts and buttons, I have not heard a peep! I have been very pleasantly surprised because THE ONE's name was all I heard up until the actual election.

More likely they'll get that "dumb cow" look when they realize what "change" actually means.
Not only is this hell, but I have to keep a blank look on my face and keep trying to change the subject.
At least you know who your enemies are.

OMG, you know what you could do, Robin? Remember that movie "When Harry Met Sally"? That scene in the restaurant when Meg Ryan demos an orgasm?
Oh, I double dog dare ya, girl. The next time the bots step into the Obamagasmatron, start your engines - LOUDLY.
OMG, I am turning out to be an evil beast after all! Whoo hoo!

Hehe, I thought you meant this:
I was pretty orgasmic on those too.
Hey! Share that thang!
Although, I think a "Snicker" would be more appropriate. . . don't you?

Heh, when they ask you about your thoughts concerning obama, just pull out your AK-47. Flip the 'selector' switch to 'auto' and ask, "What was the question again?"
Or smile and say, "I really liked when he did this." And proceed to rub your eye with the 'middle finger'.

One of the guys is from Chicago. You'd think he gave birth to wacky himself he's so proud. Blech.
When they said how great things will be, I said "I hope you are right". When one finally said 'it looks like we are boring her, Bush is her hero" I couldn't help myself and said, "no actually Reagan is my hero" to which they started saying baraky was a 'great oratator'. I LOL'd at that one.
They did finally get tired and go away, but they both looked spent to me. lol
People are still in the honeymoon period with Obama. Wait until reality hits them some time next year .... why not let them have some of their last fun moments?
At any rate I can pretty much guarantee that things wouldn't end up better if McCain were voted in. He's all about redistributing wealth to the wealthy. Obama wants to give it to the middle class and poor. Either way we can't afford it.
In fact I doubt if even the greatest of presidents could ward off what's coming at us.

My opinion, as insignificant as it is in the world's perspective, is that Obama isn't going to be nearly as bad as 90% of the people on this board think and he's not going to be nearly as good as the Obama-ites think he will be.
He's going to get into office and see all the things that he hasn't had intimate access to and his position will change on certain things. He can't just come in and make wholesale changes. Assumptions are being made on this board about what he's going to do as if everything has already been done.
It's like gamblers i've known who talk about how a game they bet on is "lock", before it starts, as if they already know the final score. I'm sure some of the negative that's being predicted will happen and i'm sure a lot of it will not.
I voted for the other guy, but for the sakes of the country and most importantly my family, I hope he does a good job or at least a competent one.

I work in academia and am in the minority here at the cubicle farm. 
Let's just say that I'm not partaking in the celebrations. Oh well, I've been shunned by cliques before...
Dang, I never did victory dances in front of them or taunted when their people lost.
Oh well, life goes on, I suppose. I'm not giving in, even though I'm outnumbered. Now I know how Israel feels.
