Dear Dinosaurs:

How are you going to sit there with a straight face and tell me that our economy sucks when you’re spending millions of dollars per day to tell me that? Oh, you poor things! You completely pissed away a couple of billion dollars to pat yourself on the back and delude yourselves of certain victory. In the process of spreading a message of dread, fear and economic ruin, you gave the economy a sizable injection of moolah, too. Who was the Watcher that missed that juxtaposition? Anyone who questioned your logic or direction was labelled a brainwashed liberal insurgent and dismissed, even within your own party. How’d that work out for you, dunderheads? Here’s a hint: the next time someone says, “Hey, that idea is alright, but you’re forgetting about b and c,” maybe you ought to listen and even [gasp] consider b and c, huh?

Remember the term “fuzzy math”? That’s what got you here today. The road to the White House is a simple line equation: You’re a and the presidency is d. You have to go through b and c to get to d. You tried to go straight to d. Only geniuses are capable of doing that. As evidenced by that nightmarish, self-deluded debacle of a campaign, you, ladies and gentlemen, are certainly no geniuses. As a matter of fact, the more of you that manage to get together, the faster the collective IQ seems to drop.

Somebody, please get this message to the heads of the party as quickly as possible. It’s not manna from heaven or a pillar of fire, but it just might get you to the promised land. Just remember: that same land is already occupied and you can’t just eradicate the indigenous population like you used to; it’s a more enlightened world now, whether you like it or not. The other option is to keep wandering the wilderness.

Sincerely,
b and c

You also predicted that Romney would win in a landslide. How did that work out for you?

In the last two presidential elections, the most liberal of the candidates were backed by the GOP establishment, and we saw what happened. In 2010, the Tea Party landed the GOP 63 House seats.

I predicted leftwing dimwits would get it exactly wrong as they do after every election.

It sounds as though Romney and Rove and the rest were devastated and blindsided by a result that they had seen coming for months. Fooling the masses is one thing, but the story reads as though they succeeded in fooling themselves.

Don, I don’t believe Rove will be one of those again earning big bucks to steer a candidate through an election. He blew it big time, which is why he melted down. He knew he was done. He will stay done and you can be damned sure some Democrat or Progressive or Liberal will stick a fork in him to let the air out if he tries again. He’s a nasty little twerp who deserves all the bad things that are going to happen to him for the rest of his life.

Yup.

That or like old Rants & raves (w/ lies) are absolutely certain that the election was lost via voter fraud.

No way do they ever acknowledge or admit a fault or wrong or being wrong; they never concede that there may be some good in others’ position; they never leave room for alternatives; they never accept any blame for their own failure or the part that they contribute to such failure.

See my comment #12 @ http://tinyurl.com/bxmgesz for a comparison of these personalities and principles, if not there authoritarian values — not that those are also excluded by such comparison.

Karl Rove was almost catatonic before bolting off the Faux News stage when Ohio was called for the President. The RW blogs which I peruse to find the new meme being pushed by the parrots, were absolutely filled with surprised and outraged RWers suspecting they had been lied to…they appear to be absolutely clueless to things called knowable truths and FACTS…

dave,

I think it’s actually hard to characterize the biggest lie. Those and the other examples of misinformation were so many, and so varied, and they were even posted here by so many RWers like Leon, Suzie, terps, Michael Howdyshell, pammala, LC, Chuck, mikeO, Frank, Pistol Pete, matt, Sharon N and others. It was astounding.

The comforting part is that it backfired on the RWers. Recall, it wasn’t that many months ago they considered Obama the easiest incumbent president to beat, EVER. Everybody KNEW (in their minds) that he was by far the worst president in history, and none of them could imagine a 3-million vote majority of electorate voting for him. The very notion that Obama would win 332 electoral votes was absurd. It could not happen — in their minds. It was totally out of the question.

It’s obvious what happened. The public saw through the RWers’ smokescreen. They got tired of the lies — about energy, the ACA, Dodd Frank, the birth certificate, welfare reform, Medicare, taxes, spending, unemployment, the economy. That list barely scratches the surface. Those were everywhere, all over the place, all the time. The REWers even lied to themselves about Romney’s poll numbers, which is an actual hallmark of insanity.

And they backfired big on Romney. The nonstop, breathtaking lies turned voters off to Mitt.

Boo hoo! They have only themselves to blame.

Are you happy, RWers? You shot yourself in the foot. I was happy to provide one of many forums for you to do that, btw!

House TP caucus:
Of the 61 members on that list of teabaggers:
35 come from just 8 states: TX, LA, GA, MS, TN, SC, FL, NC
2 from IN and MO
1 from MI, IA, IL
None from New England, PA, OH, WA, OR, WI
If these states secede, we can celebrate the loss of the lunatic fringe of the republican party…

Some teabaggers that lost their seats, Richard Mourdock losing his seat in the Senate(Indiana), Joe Walsh lost his seat (Illinois), Rep. Mia Love lost her House seat (Utah); crazy as a loon and ideologically “pure” Rep. Allen West of Florida lost his seat (he has not conceded yet), and Rep. Todd Akin of Missouri lost his seat. There may be others as the final races are called…
