Freeper thread: "Ok, now I'm mad at McCain"

[Fuzz]

I was just listening to Foxnews. They had a short blurp from McCain talking about the vote yesterday to bailout the financial crisis. He said, and I quote, "Yesterday the world looked to Washington for leadership, and Congress let them down."

Call me ignorant, call me naive, but didn't Congress do exactly what McCain accused them of not doing? The GOP DID provide leadership in helping to strike down this bloated piece of legislation and thereby send a signal that Washington WON'T bail out the crooks that perpetrating this crime upon us?

I'm getting tired of, what appears to be, McCain continuing to shoot himself in the foot in what could be the most important election to date. What do you all think? Am I getting upset for a reason or am I just not looking at this mess correctly? I really need some help with this issue.

Rush said he would destroy the party. Rush was right. THAT is disgusting. What does he want us to do? March right over the cliff with him?

The last time he used that “Unpopular but necessary legislation” line was during the amnesty debate.

Maybe he’s learning disabled.

No I agree with you completely. All the renewed enthusiasm I had for this election after the Palin announcement is gone. There are no words to adequately express my profound disappointment with McCain right now.

I guess this country deserves to suffer through 4 years of Obama.

The Party has lost its way under Bush. McCain will finish it unless Palin can somehow save it. I’m not optimistic.

Damn if he isn’t hard to defend!

Help us out John! Or just shut up and let Sarah talk.

I am so disgusted with this man. He never took the initiative during the debate to really challenge Obama, and now he's making statements like this. It's really frustrating to see and hear him do this to the GOP.

I'm honestly looking at the real possibility that Obama wins the election and in two years the Rats suffer another GOP take over in the House and Senate. This scenario is jus so sickening but I'm to see that it could happen.

You will be impressed by McCain by the time the election is held.

Really? Is he going to come out and say, "Just kidding, I'm going to embrace constitutional conservatism?" That might be impressive.

I will only be impressed with MCain if he steps down and gives the presidential nomination to Palin.

1. last one is scary

[Fuzz]

3. I left out the racist one about Obama celebrating the

black christmas

[BattyDem]

11. Black Christmas?

:shrug:

Eh ... forget it. I don't wanna know. :eyes:

[4lbs]

25. It could be that the poster was referring to Kwanzaa...

since Obama's father is Nigerian and Kwanzaa is celebrated during Christmas time in most of Africa.

However, that would be assuming that the freeper is educated and knowledgable, which is unlikely.

[Ecumenist]

29. Surferboy... His father was Kenyan and Kwanzaa is an

African American holiday. It isn't celebrated in Africa. It dates from the 60's.

[NatBurner]

39. dude... Africans have never heard of Kwanzaa

please use the google

[Fuzz]

31. Here it is anyway

Not chrismas they celebrate that other holiday for blacks. They do not let their kids have Cristmas presents.

52. Their ignorance knows no bounds.

:eyes:

[yurbud]

34. Now I need to know who everyone would want to play Afro Claus. My choices PICS:

Okay, maybe not Wesley Snipes. It would just be funny for him to do a part as inappropriate as PRISCILLA QUEEN OF THE DESERT again.

[blueknight]

8. "just shutup john, and let sarah speak"

are you fucking kidding me? that right there show you how delusional those people are.

[monmouth]

33. That was the one that jumped out at me. Egads, mental cases all...n/t

[Buns_of_Fire]

47. Hey, I'm all in favor of letting Sarah speak as much as she wants to.

...and THAT'S gonna solve all their problems, oh yeah, you betcha!:evilgrin:

[drmeow]

16. I agree

To see Palin as a champion of "constitutional conservatism" is a sign of the complete and utter lack of knowledge the freepers have of the Constitution. What part of "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, ..." don't they understand and what part of Palin's religious fanaticism do they think they will escape from?

[Fuzz]

18. "She thinks like me!!"

So it's all good, right?

[drmeow]

51. Except she doesn't

and that's what makes them so stupid. "She believes in Jeezuz and I do too" is not the same as neopentecostal dominionists Assemblies of God of Alaska and Baptist, etc. Freepers who like Palin have two marbles left except one is lost and the other is out looking for it.

[yurbud]

38. or to think that Palin is a champion of any idea

[Mike Daniels]

22. I've anticipated that's been the plan most of this time

Have the powers that be force or press McCain to accept someone as his VP who really doesn't mesh with him personally but who rallies the base which up till then wasn't keen on McCain.

Anticipate that McCain's age or health will (if he wins the presidency) eventually force him to leave office before completing a full term. This then allows Palin to assume the office of POTUS and start remaking the country according to her warped view of things. Ideally (for them), McCain has to quit before he completes half his term which then allows Palin to run for two full terms under her own name.

[Realityhack]

27. yep. n/t

[MadrasT]

2. "Help us out John! Or just shut up and let Sarah talk."

I'll second that.

Pleeeeeeze.... help us out John, let Sarah talk! :rofl:

[YOY]

12. (in my evilest voice) Yesssss! Yessss! Let her taaaaalk!

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

[SammyWinstonJack]

4. Oh boo hoo

:cry: :nopity:

[mcctatas]

5. Words fail me...

"The Party has lost its way under Bush. McCain will finish it unless Palin can somehow save it. I’m not optimistic.

:rofl:

[tosh]

13. Exactly. I was trying to type a reply to the OP and just gave up.

[Indenturedebtor]

45. Hahahahahahahahah seriously that one is a keeper

That they don't see the similarities between Palin and Shrub is truly funny and scary at the same time.

[BattyDem]

6. They're hoping Palin will save the party?

They are seriously screwn!
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[bamacrat]

7. These guys are retarded.

I would love if the dumped McCain and ran Palin, it would be a masacre.

[TooRaLoo]

9. "Maybe he’s learning disabled."

:rofl:

[YOY]

10. Two quotes...

"Rush said he would destroy the party. Rush was right.": Rush helped destroy the party as well....moreso than they'll ever understand. He got rich doing convincing the idiot base to follow along in the destruction it's a win-win for him no matter what happens...when it goes south? He's off to some pedophile get-a-way to shag some young children all tanked up on Oxycotin!

"Help us out John! Or just shut up and let Sarah talk." OH YES! Let Sarah talk... Let her talk...

[Barack_America]

14. They really are easily led.

Just find them some blabbermouth that spouts off about taxes and guns and they're smitten.

Not hard to figure out at all.

[YOY]

17. Or another who spouts pseudo patriotism in the name of warmongering

or a religious conman who can turn christ's message into one of greed and destruction.

or a pseudointellectual/pseudohistorian who can twist the founding fathers into Christian fundementalists.

[Meshuga]

15. They actually have hopes for Palin

Sure, let her do all the talking! :rofl:

[dchill]

19. So much psychological disturbance!

I do like "blurp", though. :)

[alcibiades_mystery]

20. "McCain will finish it unless Palin can somehow save it."

They are certifiable.

[Sorceress]

21. "Damn if he isn’t hard to defend! Help us out John! Or just shut up and let Sarah talk."

OMGawd!!!! :rotfl:

Shut up and let Sarah talk? There is really no help for this party. Can they really be that clueless?

[YOY]

23. Hey! They want her to talk? Let her talk!

Let her talk!

She doesn't come across as witty but acknowledgeable (some folks would sympathize there...)she come across as dull and unknowledgable...a double kiss of death.

[Javaman]

37. Hey let her talk. let her talk all she wants and throw in a press conference as well...

put her stupidity on world wide HD wide screen display.

[butterfly77]

24. I like this one...

Damn if he isn’t hard to defend!

Help us out John! Or just shut up and let Sarah talk.

Yes,Shut up and let Sarah talk, the more the better!

[JonLP24]

26. LOL!!! Morale is low on freeperland!!!

I guess this country deserves to suffer through 4 years of Obama.

48. You moran, it's "morel" not morale! get your freepspeak straight

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morel

[adamuu]

28. "I guess this country deserves to suffer through 4 years of Obama."

Indeed... Let's suffer!

[asdjrocky]

30. The funniest line in the whole thing-

"The Party has lost its way under Bush. McCain will finish it unless Palin can somehow save it. I’m not optimistic."

These idiots are looking to another full scale idiot to save their party? That is just too much.

[yurbud]

35. that's like worshipping a dirty gym sock

[asdjrocky]

41. Hope you relize-

You just insulted dirty gym socks every where.

[yurbud]

49. ever since Bush has been elected, I have had to apologize to all kinds of things...

chimps, nits, tapeworms, and now gym socks.

[beac]

32. "a short blurp from McCain"

Ugh-- I'm sure THAT didn't smell too savory. Wait, WHAT? He was talking about a sound bite? A 'blurp'? Another new freeper word is coined....

[SoCalDem]

44. yep.. Blurp.. freeperism # 176,309

:rofl:

[trusty elf]

36. Palin as savior of the party ? ? ?

She's the Moosiah ! ! :D

[ddeclue]

40. by ALL MEANS YES - let SARAH talk!!

:rofl:

That'll really lock it up for us...

[NeedleCast]

42. The best part of this is the freepers who think Palin would be the better choice

Good lawd.

[proud2BlibKansan]

43. "just shut up and let Sarah talk"

Now I agree with this. Good strategy! :rofl:

[chknltl]

46. Beat me to it!

Let Palin Talk has been something I have advocated from day one! I can think of no better aid to the Obama campaign than to let Palin talk! The mCcain campaigns worst nightmare is letting her talk in the first place. Saturdy Night Live hasn't been THIS entertaining since the Reagan years! PLEASE let Sarah Palin talk

[Yanez Houston Jordan]

50. I appreciate you going there because I won't do it.
