Freepers react to Al Franken's victory in Minnesota (funny shit!)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

America takes another hit...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We as a nation have truly sunk to a new level of depravity and darkness.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seems like all we have been taking is hits lately ... Time to pray.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WE ARE SO SCREWED

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nooooooo!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don’t know how much more of this sh*t I can take... this really sucks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

reading this felt like a punch to the stomach after this week of death and destruction

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My God... WHAT has happened to my country???

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let’s get a drink.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




..... and much much more....

14. They sure like that word
"depravity"

They see depravity everywhere. Now as I think about it, they probably go so far as to check their underwear drawer every morning in for depravity, and are secretly disappointed if they don't find it.

Eww. I just grossed myself out.

18. "My God... WHAT has happened to my country??? "
It is our country, not your country.

This country doesn't just belong to religious fanatical white males in the south, it belongs to us all. What these people don't realize is that they got beat! More people voted against their drivel than for it. They lost, and the country is ours not just theirs. They can't stand it. They thought they owned this country and everyone in it after 911, but times changed.

Demographics are against them too. Suckers!

Thank goodness GWB had a stellar legal team (and 5 fair justices on SCOTUS) or this would have been the result in Bush v. Gore."

61. The constant references to ACORN totally crack me up!
Anything the wingnuts don't like is because of ACORN now (unless it's because of George Soros). The group is mentioned somewhere in virtually every FR thread, as is (sigh) Obama's birth certificate. (Did you spot the Birther reference in this anti-Franken thread? It's there.)

Some FR threads have a 1-2% representation for the sane point of view (always shouted down with scorn). This is one of those threads with no sanity displayed whatsoever - 100% pure wacko. It reminds me of the wonderfully classic FR thread (sorry, no link) from right before the election, in which virtually all of hundreds of posts predicted a McCain victory, at a time when he was down 10+ points in every poll.

:crazy:

62. Oops, the thread is not quite 100% wacko after all.
>> Oh you are soooo naïve. What this election has shown us is that our electoral process is broken. There is no such thing as a clean, free, and open election anymore in America. Acorn can manufacture any results required to elect a Democrat, and the liberal court system will declare it valid, just like the Mullahs in Iran....

Really? While I agree that ACORN probably got every black voter in Minnesota to vote for Franken, all 10 of them, I don't believe it quite has the power you claim! The election was about the performance of one George W. Bush's 8 years in office and it had unfortunate results for Norm Coleman as well as John McCain and Sarah Palin. That was a fact and nothing more than that is fact!

34. Dear Freeptards;

When Norm Coleman said that Al Franken should concede the race 'for the sake of the people of Minnesota', you were all behind him. Then, when Coleman refused to concede 'for the sake of Minnesota', you embraced the hypocrisy and stayed right behind him.

Why are you all such hypocrites?

I'll tell you; Because you are not politically inclined, you are, for all intents and purposes; sports fans. Here's a flash for all of you; Politics is not a 'sport'. In sports, you can always agree with the call against the other team while arguing with the same call against your team. That's what a 'fanatic' does after all... they believe their cause is so 'right' that they can break the rules they impose upon everyone else.

But fanatics do not belong in politics.

You cannot handle the layers of interest involved in Politics. You cannot parse the intricacies or nuances or weigh all the disparate factors that come into play when establishing policy. You are trapped in the 'all or nothing', 'with us or against us', 'right/wrong, good/evil, black/white' mentality that http://stupidevilbastard.com/index/seb/comments/new_study_shows_liberal_and_conservative_brains_are_wired_differently/">abhors complexity.

You do not belong in politics, you belong in a sports arena watching a game, wearing facepaint, drinking beer, and getting into fights over issues that do not ultimately affect the lives of millions of people at a time.

You cheered and jeered when 'your side' broke all the rules, ignored treaties, violated the Constitution, threw off accountability, and plunged the nation into disaster. Well, the politicians that make up 'your team' fully count on idiot sport's fans to support them no matter what they do. That way they can get away with screwing everyone... including their fans. Now we get to watch you guys put your hypocrite hats on and go rabid over even perceived infractions of 'our team'... just like sport's fans.

Well, aside from some of the responses on this thread, 'our side' tends to hold their 'team' accountable for it's misdeeds. No doubt you've seen all the railing against Obama by DUer's and thought, in your limited scope of understanding, that it was some sign of 'weakness'. Well, it's not. What it really is is concern that no matter who is in charge, they are serving We The People rather than themselves.

That's because that's what Politics is all about.

So please, get out of politics and dedicate yourselves full time to watching sports. That way you can be the biggest, most fanatical hypocrites on Earth and no one will have to pay the price for it the way we have after eight years of 'your team' running things.

Rah, Fucking, Rah.

Good point. It's all too hard. Having every thing you stand for get the front seat for the last 8 years (some might say 28) get disproven as ineffectual and self destructive...

Just think...you only need one of those bullets that you've been hoarding for the "apakiklypse" and a small calaliber handgun pointed to your own cranium to fix it all...

Or you could just admit you were wrong.

It’s the Democratic way: keep re-counting until you have enough votes to win. Then stop counting and have a “court” approve it.

58. Here's another funny post.
I'm still shocked this thing that basically started off as a joke is actually happening. How was it even close? Al Franken? Are you kidding me?

I'm not a Pawlenty fan, but we have to seriously look in to whether or not we want candidates for national office that come from a state unable to elect sane people.
