President Obama’s reelection campaign brought 40 engineers into their ranks to build the technology they needed to get the president reelected. This is the very human story of how they helped out, even if they never fit in.

just got a surge of happiness thinking about Obama being president again and the fact that he will appoint supreme court justices
One of the awesome things about living in Berkeley?
I’m in my dorm and I hear from my open window someone in the street yell “WE WON!!!”
And then people all over the street started cheering and some people even leaned out the windows of their apartments or dorms to cheer.
Let’s make a list of awesome victories tonight:
- Obama has four more years.
- Tammy Baldwin was elected the first openly gay Senator in US history.
- Tammy Duckworth, a disabled female veteran wounded in combat was elected into congress.

WAS REALLY SURPRISED WHEN I WENT T0 THE F0X NEWS WEBSITE
Hi Tumblr, it’s me, a slightly older person…
I see a lot of you 20 somethings saying things about how you aren’t going to choose the lesser of two evils and that their policy on important matters are identical so what’s the point they’re both stooges for Wall Street and the Industrial War Complex.
You are right. Kind of.
I know y’all LOVE the 90’s. Me too. And I remember after after eight years of Clinton/Gore, I thought those motherfuckers were the devil. I was soooooooooooo upset with Bill Clinton waving his deregulation wand and his fucked foreign policy that I was all FUCK THE DEMOCRATS and I strongly advocated for Raplh Nader, even though he too didn’t really care about my “gonad politics.” Even when not choosing between the “lesser of two evils,” I was STILL having to compromise major issues.
Having been an adult person through 8 years of Clinton/Gore and 8 years through Bush/Cheney, I can tell you without a shred of hesitation that I will line up like my ass is on fire to vote for the lesser of two evils because the greater of two evils almost had us all living outside and eating dog food.
And if you think that a Romney presidency won’t be worse than Bush/Cheney, you are out of your mind.
I am fucking begging all of you, please, go vote. Aside from the fact that far more dangerous things are happening on your local level, (like collective bargaining being taken away in Illinois) this shit does matter.
If you think voting for Obama is the lesser of two evils, you’re wrong, it’s the lesser of three because not voting IS voting for Romney. Not voting is voting for dickbag judges that sentence people to jail in counties that have privatized prisons for minor drug infractions. Not voting is voting to remove pensions and collective bargaining and the last shreds of union power from the people. Not voting this election is voting for Feudalism.
Go vote.
Now pardon me, there’s some damn kids on my lawn and they want candy.

No, you can’t deny women their basic rights and pretend it’s about your ‘religious freedom.’ If you don’t like birth control, don’t use it. Religious freedom doesn’t mean you can force others to live by your own beliefs.
Christian defaces Obama sign w/ 'nig**r lover', local GOP apologizes
A hateful Christian on one end, the local GOP doing the right thing on the other. Just another story of life in the United States. And on it goes.
