Zoltan

Make as many excuses as you want, we still had no reason to go in there. We don't invade a country becuase we don't like it's leader, we use war as a means of last resort for protection. Most of Bush's cabinet belonged to PNAC, a group dedicated to the overthrough of Saddam as far back as the early nineties so to say this was about 9/11 is baseless. The man who really attacked our country is still at large because we wasted resources going into Iraq. The only reason republicans even supported going in in the first place was because a republican president wanted to.

The republicans just don't give a shit!

Nor do they have a reason to, they're out the door in a month. Even if the UAW hadn't campaigned against them they still wouldn't care. These guys probably have some cushy lobbying job or some "think tank" position lined up the moment they clean out their desk. This economy will never touch them. In six months you'll see half of them giving "special commentary" on Faux Nooz about what a lousy job Obama's doing to clean up the mess they so conviently left for him. And of course the ditto heads will nod in blind agreement while their own jobs get sent off to India or China or wherever we're letting run our economy now.

Blame the unions if you really want to, paid trolls, but I doubt the UAW forced the Big 3 to keep designing SUVs without any consideration for the future oil market or forced them to scrap the E-V 1.

Bill Maher predicted this...

Just a couple weeks after the election. It was one of his "NEW RULES" in fact. He forsaw a phony Vince Foster type scandal coming down the pipes (of course I think we all kinda expected it to be AFTER the guy takes office). This is how the republicans work, if they can't win, they will make shit up to distract the media (and that's REALLY who these stunts are for) from Obama's/Clinton's/Whichever democrat wins agenda and to rally the base, just in case somebody had an independant thought and decided not to participate when re-election time comes up. Their sore losers and they'll take whatever "victory" they can get. All the while their base will be too stupid to ask questions (like if Obama is a muslim, why did he go to a "Black Liberation Theology" church for 20 years or if he was really born in Kenya, why didn't the republicans and the State Department uncover this before the election?).

I expect four years of phony "gates" that will lead nowhere and still be taken seriously by the MSM anyway for fear of that dreaded "liberal bias" label. Anyone who actually thinks the media leanred anything from the Bush years is truly niave.

They will learn nothing

Because learning is a sign of weakness and diverts from idealogical purity. Also it might make you into a Godless itellectual elitist. Next you'll be thinking evolution actually happened and gays might actually be born that way. Nothing Jesus hates more then peple who ask questions.

The sore losers need to change their diapers and get over it.

The American people have spoken, YOU LOSE! Time to go cry about it at Little Green Footballs or Drudge or whatever conspiracy site you frequent that wouldn't let a dissenting voice through the way Salon does. Be grateful we don't do to you what your sites would clearly do to us. We won't fall for your phony conspiracies, we're the guys who saw through the Iraq war, remember? Your not dealing with dittoheads here.

Here's a nutty thought...

How about all these evangelical groups spend all that money they use to lobby for gay bashing laws and use it for things like ending poverty. Revolutionary, I know. Who cares, evangelicals are just a bunch of whores for the republican party anyway. It's not like they have their own opinions.

Coleman's gonna try and steal the election.

He is a republican after all.

You scumbags went after Bush for 8 years, now it payback time!

You scumbags went after Clinton for a lot less. At least when we went after Bush, it was because he got innocent people killed based on a lie. BTW: You basically just admitted you guys are going on a baseless witchhunt. Congratulations, idiot!

Is this what the next four years going to look like?

Four years of idiot sore losers waisting all that tax payer money their so worried about Obama taking away on frivulous court cases that won't go anywhere? Maybe Obama does need to raise their taxes, it's obvious their not going to do anything useful with the money anyway.

Did O'Reilly really say that?

That's when you know it's time to retire the Hitler comparison, when it's applied to a BLOG!

You know your approval raitngs are low...

When even your Secret Service detail doesn't think your worth protecting anymore.

sticking it up his ass, you know.

How's he gonna fit it up there with his head in the way?

Wednesday, December 17, 2008 02:33 PM

Actually, I'm glad he took it down...

The last thing we need is to give the sore losers more ammunition to go after Obama with.

An accurate representation...

of what will happen if people keep voting republican.

No compromise with the enemy!

Republicans had their chance ot run this country into the ground, let's not give them another one!

Arrest these senators for treason.

"Any British or French or German leader who proposed collaborating with Japan or the U.S. in order to wipe out industry and destroy jobs in neighboring EU member states would be jeered out of office."

This says it all. It is clear these senators are putting another countries interests ahead of their own countries and the people they were hired to represent by opposing living wages and unions. Lock them up. I disagree with the idea of revenue sharing with the south. These are the bigot states, the same ones that gave us Bush and the Iraq war. The same ones that make discrimination of gays socially acceptable. They must be punished for this or they will never learn. Starve the south until it changes.
