Anyone else feel more optimistic than they have in years? 
 I do.



Stout hearts, keep it up.

And thank you for what you do.

The thread is a bunch of rah rah drivel but not a one asks why with the revolution in his backyard the shitPitt has not joined his comrades against the wealthy elite.

Well, liberals let feelings dictate their actions and thoughts.  Since they shun reason and morality, feelings is all they have.

BTW, this is the difference between us and them, our ideology relies on each individual to make themselves feel good, whereas the left relies on the actions of others to make them feel good.

I am actually feeling optimistic.  I know Obama is going to be gone and that can only bring good things.

 A few thousand people ( with people showing up for a day or a few hours or being pumped up by unions ) spread out over a large country does not a revolution make. But if it makes you feel happy....

Rasmussen's new poll shows favorability went down, now 36% of people favor the protests and 41% have an unfavorable opinion.

The more coverage they get the less people like them.  The DUmmies wanted the media to cover it, and they got what they wanted. :rotf:

Gallup Daily presidential approval/disapproval 41/51, I'm cautiously optimistic.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

I've never stopped being very optimistic.

There's tons of money to be made, and the best country on earth to enjoy, so why not be optimistic?

To top it off, I've recently lowered Hussein's reelection probability from the 60-65% range to 50-55%.

The future's so bright I gotta wear shades.

Which reminds me, in a vesta-esque sort of way.  I just bought a new pair of polarized Ray Ban Aviators.

I wanted mirrored lenses, like the chain gang boss in Cool Hand Luke, but the kid at Sunglass Hut said Ray Ban didn't make them.

Say it ain't so.

Oh no!  After election day I don't want to hear one person say his name ever again.  I curse him!

Let the name of Obama be stricken from every book and tablet, stricken from all pylons and obelisks, stricken from every monument of Egypt. Let the name of Obama be unheard and unspoken, erased from the memory of men for all time.

Yep.
              

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.
