Today on Tommy T’s Obsession with the Freeperati – Gruesome grab-bag edition
Well, folks – it felt a bit strange taking the “Paul Ryan” and “Mitt Romney’s flaccid penis” tags down and packing them away, but I think we’re all had enough of Mr. Forty-seven Percent to last us a lifetime.
So – let’s see what’s in the first drum of toxic Freepitude, shall we?
To: Thane_Banquo; All; FReepers
Let not your heart be troubled. On Fox, Karl Rove is painting a
very good picture for a Republican win in Ohio, Florida and Virginia.I
realize Karl was not very popular hereabouts a few months ago but he’s
an astute observer of politics and an excellent numbers cruncher.

(DP…that’s what I like about Texas.)
HOLEE SHIT! Kibitzer – hold the lid down while I weld it shut!
Jeez – we’re gonna be mopping up this stuff for months.
Republican strategist Steve Schmidt said early Wednesday morning on
MSNBC that it’s time for Republican leaders to stand up to “extreme
statements” and “nonsense” coming from within the GOP, including Rush
Limbaugh.
“Now, people calling for revolution and these extreme
statements — when I talk about a civil war in the Republican Party, what
I mean is, it’s time for Republican elected leaders to stand up and to
repudiate this nonsense, and to repudiate it directly,” Schmidt said.

Rush is extreme. You can thank him for the Sandra Fluke
phenomenom and of coursse you can thank him for operation chaos four
years ago.

Another indication that the GOP is going to go the way of the Whigs.

C’mon guys – don’t go off the deep end here.
To: Terry Mross; All
Would not be surprised if folks like Rush like ended up being
“disappeared” by Federal Law enforcement/Dept. of Homeland Security in
the not to distant future.
The open mass grave that is the history of the 20 century shows us
what will be happening in the country in the next 4 years & if you
think that American cops would never do something like round people up
for reeducation/liquidation bear one little fact in mind .
In all of the genocides,pogroms,dealing with stubborn Kulaks,Great
Leaps Forward,final solution to the Jewish Question not once did the
police or the legal system stand up & say NO THIS IS WRONG WE WILL
NOT CARRY OUT THESE CRIMINAL ORDERS . Just the opposite is the grim
reality . Don’t say you haven’t been warned.
Rush,Glenn Beck ,Mike Savage,Hannity would be wise to make plans on
how to get out of the country on really short notice & without
government permission, the key words being without government permission
failure to do so could lead to being in government custody for thought
crimes to a bullet in the back of the head.

As any poker player knows, those 8 percent chances do come up once in
a while. If it happens this year, then a lot of polling firms will have
to re-examine their assumptions — and we will have to re-examine ours
about how trustworthy the polls are. But the odds are that Mr. Obama
will win another term.

The easy part first. Let us stop letting Palin pick Senate nominees. She is a pundit. Nothing more.

You people are CLUELESS
During
the primaries it was obvious that 7 out of 10 GOP voters WANTED SOMEONE
MORE CONSERVATIVE than Romney, you forced him on us
YOU ARE TO BLAME FOR THIS LOSS and the continuation of this Obamanation on The Republic
Did Ronald Reagan “reach across the aisle” or did he win with strong conservativ eagenda?
Good question.
MR. ZUCKERMAN: Well, you know, there is a huge difference between
Gingrich and Reagan. Reagan had the ability, as he did with Tip
O’Neill, the speaker of the House, to do a complete reform program of
Social Security. You think about what that would be like today if we
had somebody who could reach across the aisle the way Reagan did.

If it had been Newt Ginrich or Rick Santorum the same crap would
have happened. The bottom line is Obama won because he was black
Romney performed poorly in the last two debates, meaning he should have
mopped the floor with the pathetic likes of Obama, but didn’t.
A truly conservative candidate WOULD HAVE WON.

Bull poop, this was far more about the people doing the voting than the Republican candidate.
Romeny ran a good campaign.
He spoke well.
He made great points and offered sound solutions.
He worked his butt off.
There is no perfect candidate, but I think Romney left everything he had out there in the campaign.
The people let the country down, not Romney.

As the election results pour in tonight, I am confronted with by a
period of time in which I must reassess my core values and beliefs, and
how they fit into the broader population of the United States.
As the election results pour in tonight, I am confronted with by a
period of time in which I must reassess my core values and beliefs, and
how they fit into the broader population of the United States.
You said that already.
It is
my belief that the Nation is becoming a Humanist Country,
Well, that’s what you get when you let humans run things, innit?
where
Government is at the Center of Life much as Religion had been in the
past. We are becoming more like Sweden or the Nordic countries rather
than like the Southern EU nations of Greece, Italy or Spain. The
difference between a social democracy and a Humanist Country is at its
core one of financial ability to maintain – the Nordic nations have oil,
gas and low populations and the South has more people than they can
support.
My basis for these thoughts are that I have lived in a
state of mind in which I choose to be conservative, religious, and tried
to be the best person I could, all the while teaching my children to
work hard and be self-reliant.
But as the election results are coming in evidence to the contrary confronts me that many more Americans are not conservative.
The
state of American is that just over one-half of the citizens are happy
with the Democrats while the conservative half like myself felt he was
destruction to the Nation on so many levels.
Tonight I must
finally admit that Democrats and liberals have achieved their goals of
moving the County into a social democracy like those in Europe; tonight
is 1970 in Europe and in 50 years the USA will be in the same dire
straights(sic) as Europe.
Americans like myself will no longer take
the risks or work harder than the laziest in each of our work
environments and all seek the same diminishing rewards. Having lived in
Europe and experienced the their culture in The Netherlands and Belgium,
all incentive to produce has been breed out of the population.
So
tonight I must accept that the Country is not going to collapse nor is
it going to change much from today for that matter.Tomorrow I will be
faced with walking the social plank off the Ship into the water or tread
lightly so as not to offend the Humanists, the gays, the
anti-Christians, the Latinos, Blacks, women, etc.
Whatever happened to the good old days, when you could offend people just for the hell of it?
Tonight I go to
sleep knowing my way of life is in the last generation where a majority
once worked hard and individuals were important; tomorrow I embrace the
new culture where the intolerant are somehow the norm and to live
counter to their culture is being intolerant – I for one do not think I
can tolerate
Divide By Zero Alert!!!
this new status quo but will silently accept what our
schools and taxes have done to society.

I am exiting politics, entirely. When a socialist regime becomes so
powerful that an election result no longer represents my voice due to
voter fraud, what’s the point? When a society comprised of robots
ignorant of the issues becomes the majority opinion, what’s the point?
When a society becomes DOMINATED by ignorant females who vote (with
their lady parts) for a cool swagger man because of a hurricane and
don’t even know what BENGHAZI means, WHAT THE HELL HAVE WE DONE?
God
has abandoned us, and we ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Have at it, ladies. You
won’t have to worry about a ‘war on terror’. There isn’t one if you
surrender to it, and you will. Enjoy, ladies!

To: Jumper
I am sick to my stomach right now. I am trying to comprehend just
how the American people, with four solid years of documented failure,
would re-elect this man.
The only conclusion I can draw is that the American people have
accepted an entitlement society and socialism and have rejected free
enterprise and Capitalism. If that is the case, America, as a great
economic and military power, is over.
Our future is now one of continual decline, increasing debt,
increasing taxes, increasing social programs, government-subsidized
health care and polarization.
I predict that the end result of this will be a civil war.
Good-bye to Ronald Reagan’s vision of America, and hello to Josef Stalin’s.
Tonight I weep for my country.

Thanks so much. You give me a reason to look forward to Monday.
Some of your posts have me wondering if we’ve reached a tipping point where the GOP is destined to implode on itself. They’ve created their Frankenstein’s monster by the Tea Baggers and urging people to go to the Healthcare Town Halls and disrupt them by their hysterics (corallary – if you just yell loud enough you can demand whatever you want from the politicos).
While it has long been traditional to win the primaries by playing to the base and being extreme and then moderate oneself for the election, the need to appear 100% Tea Bag, 100% Grover Norquist Pledge, 100% … seems to have been most extreme lately.
While repubs have traditionally eaten their wounded, the long line of candidate of the week in the primaries, where each candidate had a week of being beatified only to be decried as a heretic the next week. The primaries and into the full campaign were also marked by a palpable tension between the GOP supporters and the GOP-elite.
Oh, I had to, as Pallin would say, use the google thingy to see who Steve Schmidt is. According to Wiki he specializes as “message development and strategy.” and senior strategist for the McCain campaign. Is that really what you’d put on your resume?

“God has abandoned us, and we ain’t seen nothin’ yet.”
I really have to wonder at this person’s spirituality. Sounds like blaming God when things don’t go their way. Not to mention blaming God for what **WE** do.
Admittedly, just another incongruity among the Freepers.
On a lighter note, how come the OWS protestors ranged from humorous to ineffective to negative connotations such as vermin. But the Freepers are gonna march on Repub Headquarters and that is some sort of stellar event? Guess the Tea Bags hanging from tri-cornered hats have a penache that the OWS lack?

Alas, I did a few brief scans the past few days and they are a starting to regroup with new and ever more grandiose plans to turn the GOP into the purest, most awesome, conservative juggernaut ever. As far as I can determine it all begins with convincing Latinos, blacks, women and Asians that their lives would be so much better if they just hated themselves more. Or something…
