No sane person in the US is going to commit suicide over the results of an election. There is so much inertia in the political system that it usually takes decades to make significant changes. Even the hated tax cuts that the Dems complained about are spread out over 10 years. If the guy was insane, his motivation probably doesn't matter since it would only make sense to him.
Finally, for those like unicorn who prefix American with "stupid" in their conversations, you are only deceiving themselves. Unfortunately, you seem to have bought into the moronic blather that Michael Moore has poisoned many minds with. Americans are neither stupid nor rash in our actions. Although we have the power to have wiped Afghanistan and Iraq off the face of the earth, we preferred to make the "people of these countries" our friends and allies in the fight against terrorism. Removing the Taliban and Sadaam from power was both right and necessary to make progress in defeating terrorism (not to mention the liberation of their peoples). I am a lot more concerned with making these countries into functioning democracies than I am in the temporary villification of America by France, Germany and Russia. Like we usually see in elections, political rhetoric is often loud and shrill in the short term. All will eventually be forgiven and forgotten and we will again be good friends and allies. Until then, just drop the "stupid" and argue your point with facts and proof. Who knows, you might even convince someone you are right.
