Obama is insignificant as long as the republicans hold the house. Romney wouldn't matter unless the republicans took the senate.Yes, but at least you're not saying, "We're doomed because my guy didn't win! Take up arms!"

Must be watching Red Eye. Is that program still around? Loser program if you ask me.
Yeah, it's pretty hilarious actually.
Some jackass radio host Ben Ferguson is saying, "There's now a group of people in our society that are comfortable with handouts!" God, some Republicans are dense.
Greg Gutfeld comes off as a neo-con posing as a libertarian.
I couldn't stand that show. When I was paying for cable, I would sometimes have Fox on as background noise. I would switch the channel when that show came on.
It's usually "team who has actual legal standing and recourse" thing.
Their new "Brown peoples is ig'nant, only want handouts, and need the white man to vote for them" schtick is even worse, imho...
Tbh, if people have valid reasons for feeling that way, wouldn't it be more productive to stay and try to change it?If you think America is doomed, leave it then.
Twelve Million of them, 1st day in office!
Apparently the new thing for the "America is DOOOOOOOMED!" team for a short period last night was " it, I am moving to Australia" (WTF?). Then there was a tweet from someone in the Australian government who said "for all of you wanting to move to australia as a result of the american election, We have a single, female, athiest PM, Universal healthcare, and compulsory voting"
After that one spread around a little, one of my wife's friends who had written that he was moving to australia said, "change of plans, Moving to new Zealand"
LOL
I don't think that the Cons get that there is nowhere in the world they can move other than the theocracies of the middle east.
Will Christie suffer some backlash due to his response to Obama's Sandy assistance? I've heard it will hurt him as that is a no no in the GOP.
nicely done
Board should have a thread full of these.

I heard Bill OReilly give his analysis on the radio last night as the numbers began to come in. He probably sensed his boy was gonna lose.
"If Obama wins, it's only because of the photo opps the president had during Sandy."
"Half this country thinks they're en led to free stuff. Which candidate is promising free stuff? There are a lot more black and hispanic people than there used to be and they think they're en led to free stuff."

Plenty of redstate bubbas watch Fox Repug Propaganda get free stuff, like subsidized crop and flood/coastal zone insurance, "carried interest" loophole for billionaires, subsidized/mandated corn ethanol, $10Bs in tax breaks and tax evasion by Fortune 500, etc, etc, etc.
Billo knows his listeners are too stupid to know the whole picture of how the 1% gets "free stuff" and s the 99%.
It wasn't close enough for that.
The overall point on this one I think has some merit (to which degree I am not sure). Those other issues (which I agree are definitely important) seem to be much more important to the "common person" than the economy. Things like gay marriage, abortion.... seem to be much more of a deciding factor than the economy. Whether that's because most of it is religious based and the roots religion has in our country or because it's simply easier to debate and understand those topics vs. having to understand the global economy and ways to fix our national debt, I am not sure, but that point to me seems valid.

Yet he manages to be so "fair and balanced."
I disagree with this perception. I think the economy is number one and people do understand for the most part what's going on.
But I also think both candidates offered fairy tale/faith-based economic proposals which people don't really buy, thus the topic loses relevance as a key point, and other issues take front stage.
TX Greasebag Karl Rove, the Biggest Loser
The harm the dubya did (elevating Rove to Repug power) lives on WAY after him:
"Britt Hume, Megyn Kelly and a host of pundits offered up brief post mortems. Even the house organ of the Republican Party had conceded.
But then, abruptly, at 11:25, the narrative changed dramatically. “I have great respect for our decision desk,” said Fox’s Chris Wallace, “and I can see that they’re very happy [at Obama headquarters] in Chicago, but I have to tell you that the Romney camp has real doubts by the call that has been made by us and by other networks.”
Enter Karl Rove—Machiavellian GOP party boss, master numbers cruncher, and Fox News analyst—to challenge the verdict that everyone had anxiously awaited. Wallace got right to the point and asked Rove if he thought Ohio was locked up for Obama.
“No, I don’t,” Rove said.
“We’ve got a quarter of the vote,” he explained. “Now remember, here is the thing about Ohio. A third of the vote or more is cast early and is won overwhelmingly by the Democrats.”
Rove insisted that calling the election was “premature.”
“So, maybe not so fast, folks!” Wallace said.
The unthinkable had just happened. Fox had called the election for Obama, but Karl Rove, its Svengali like analyst, had just disputed his own network’s call.
There was an uncomfortable moment of dead air.
Then, Fox anchor Megyn Kelly addressed the situation with understatement. “Well, that’s awkward,” she said. "
