The GOP doesn't seem to understand that THEY LOST -- BIG.

John Boner is on TV now blathering on and on, and making demands of the President, telling him what he must do. **** YOU, John! Sit down, shut up, and accept the fact that you lost in a historic way. You don't get to make demands. Elections have consequences.

I suppose Robyn needs a litle education here, but I doubt it'll sink in--this is the same guy who insisted William Clinton won both terms in office in massive Reaganesque landslides, when in fact Clinton was the only two-term president in American history to never have won a majority of the popular vote in at least one of those two elections.

The recent elections were a draw; we ended up exactly where we'd been the day before the elections.

Too bad for the evil twin.

Correct.  And  Boehner controls the HOR.  Unless Obama continues to emulate a dictator, he needs Boehner's cooperation.

Has anyone hired Rob to draw his little stick figures yet or is he still unemployed?

Must suck to be shit canned at a commie cartoon factory when your guy is President.

Well, now you know the reasoning behind naming the award for the primitive that makes one laugh the most, the "Robyn McGrath" award.

I'm too lazy to look it up, but I suspect the evil twin's here, reading this thread.

If one wants to take a shot at Atman, now's a good time.

That's right, and the Republicans control the House of Representatives, ****stick. Obama isn't a damn dictator, though I'm sure you'd like for him to be.

Strike one more up on why it's so easy to prop up an authoritarian dictatorship among leftists.

What poor, stupid Pedro fails to acknowledge is this little fact:  At the state level, where candidates for national offices are developed, the GOP took over from the Dems almost as many state houses as they did in 2010 (and didn't lose any, IIRC).  What that translates into is this:  Our 'farm system' is one Hell of a lot deeper.  We've got a lot of up-and-coming candidates in the next generation.  Old leftists aren't being replaced nearly as much.

Yes, elections do have consequences, and the Republicans were re-elected to be in control of the country's purse strings.

THEY LOST -- BIG.


Yawn.  Not really.  Carter lost big.  Mondale lost big.  Dukakis lost big.  I realize EC is what counts, but:

king zero:  62,615,406  50.9%
Romney:  59,142,004  48.1%
Libertarian:  1,220,050  1%  

With Libertarians sucking votes away from Romney.  The McCain voters from 2008 did not go flocking to obumbles.  They flocked to libertarianism.  Their numbers increased dramatically over 2008.

So, Robyn, we didn't have millions more adoring accolytes fawning and fainting over obama.  He actually lost votes.  And you losers failed utterly to win back the house.  

See you in 2014, when obamacare really kicks people squarely in the nuts.

I remember when Richard Nixon won in that massive 49-state landslide in 1972, and the Democrats said it was no mandate, because he hadn't picked up hardly any seats in the House or the Senate.

And then in 1984, when House Speaker Tipsy O'Neill sourly stated that Ronald Reagan in his 49-state landslide, had no mandate because the Democrats still controlled the House.

Nope, poor stupid Pedro is pretty much unemployable at more than minimum wage, and he refuses to accept that reality.

He has no marketable skill, having spent his life doodling cartoons, while having no artistic ability whatsoever.

So like lots of democrat men, he lives off the labor of a woman.

In that respect, he's not much different from the worthless Las Vegas Leviathan.

After, whatever, four hours burning on Skins's island, 345 views, 12 comments.

Three hours burning here on this much-smaller message board, 217 views, 18 comments.

One can see where this is headed.

People here pay more attention to Atman--and Omaha Steve--than do their own fellow primitives.

Gee, one might be led to believe that a primitive could come over here and get a serious treatment of a point they might be trying to make.

Of course I am completely wrong on that, they are not looking for serious discussion, it's group think and if you ain't on board it's the big pizza for you.

I always wondered if the predominant motive for primitives to light campfires on Skins's island isn't simply just to scream something, nothing more than that.

I notice decent and civilized people tend to get engaged in threads; the "comments" per "views" here is really high, as compared with Skins's island.

Omaha Steve, the big guy, is notorious for posting and running; he rarely if ever hangs around to engage with his audience.  He just says something and runs away, abandoning his own campfire.

To his credit, the Bostonian Drunkard at times hangs around his campfires to react to comments; a great deal more than most primitives.

However, the primitive who was best at engaging with his audience alas is no more; the maudlin waif the "Mythsage" primitive.  He'd hang around his own campfires for the longest time, always ready to respond to any primitive comments and questions.

That shows respect for one's audience; one isn't just heaping a pile of shit onto their laps and running away.
