I have fucking had it with the rethugs belittling our President after he successfully got OBL.

[jillan]

I actually had a rethug say to me that Obama fucked up the whole mission because he did not get a neutral world leader identify the body before sending OBL. Now you can be certain they will rip Obama apart for not releasing the photo.

I understand why they are doing this, but it needs to stop.

Don't talk to me about free speech either - I am a huge Dixie Chicks fan.

I want to see people like Bob Schrum and Paul Begala and other Democratic talking heads all over the news belittling the Repug talking heads that are beating up Obama after this huge victory. I want them to take a page out of the repug playbook when anyone dared to question W.

I want to see the haters "Dixie Chicked". Enough of the constant Obama bashing coming out of their big, bloated orifices.

1. Why on God's green Earth would you let an asshole wind you up so much?

3. You mean assholeS. Hannity, rush, O"Reilly, Napolitano etc... they are the ones

that are getting the sheep all wound up.

[Poll_Blind]

8. I let this happen to myself too, sometimes. But just remember, that's their job.

They are never going to allow anything Obama does to be recognized in some positive light. So there never is a "win" situation possible. I understand where you're coming from, though.

10. Thank you for that! I never expected to get questioned on DU for being frustrated with

the republicans going after Obama.

Live and learn :)

[stockholmer]

9. whilst I dont agree with Napolitano's financial views,he's hardly like the rest of the scum you list

In the Youtube's of his show that I have seen, he comes across as very pro civil liberties, and anti-Fed. My main issue is that he doesn't go after fools like Palin when they are on his show, but then again, the horrid Fox News does sign his checks.

[jillan]

12. He said that Obama faked OBL's death to save his lousy Presidency. That seems pretty scuzzy to me.

[stockholmer]

22. in the link you sent, he doesn't come across as anything other than reasoned & logical (w/ 1 caveat)

He does call Obama's presidency 'lousy', which from my socialist, outside the USA (I did live in NYC for several years) view, it has been. I base this on the continuation (and expansion) of the US's empiric war machine, the utter lack of prosecutions for the financial systemic controllers, the large erosions of your civil liberties that have continued unabated under his justice department, the tax breaks for the richest that he caved on, the sell-out on health care, etc etc etc.

I myself have many questions on the OBL death, especially the dumping of the body in the ocean, the refusal to release pics, and the rapidly changing, conflicting stories from different high level members, and the fact that OBL died NEVER having been charged with 9-11 (according to the FBI itself due to 'lack of evidence').

[EC]

25. Anti-Fed...

there you go...how does a nation do BIG things without a federal government to finance big things?


Or are we now a puny, weak, poor nation?

[stockholmer]

27. sorry for the poor elucidation, I was referring to the US Federal Reserve, not the government

cheers

15. "Why on God's green Earth would you let an asshole wind you up so much?"

You are so right about this. Unless someone is paying me to listen to that ignorant shit (and even then I'd have to know how much!), I stay out of its way.

[Poll_Blind]

To be honest, while I spout the wisdom it can be difficult to follow sometimes.

:rofl:

20. Sometimes I do peek

to see what kind of craziness the right-wingers are spouting. But it's more like peeking at a freak-show at the circus. They must be in rare form right now with President Obama getting OBL. Like ants scrambling after their ant hill was kicked over.

[DainBramaged]

16. Because if we don't get wound up, the day will come that you'll complain nothing is being done

we NEED a noise machine, or didn't you realize we got our asses handed to us last November?

[dipsydoodle]

2. Being a a huge Dixie Chicks fan

only demonstrates you've got bad taste in music so an alternative example may have been better.

[JVS]

4. It also demonstrates that she is supportive of free speech that she agrees with.

[jillan]

6. Coming from someone who used to go ballistic anytime anyone insulted Kerry, makes me laugh.

[JVS]

7. You have me confused with someone else.

[jillan]

5. Lol - If you can't appreciate the vocal talent of Natalie Maines, that's your loss, not mine.

[ProgressiveProfessor]

13. The real talent in the group was not Maines

that said, they are in my regular Ipod rotation

[ProgressiveProfessor]

11. They were going to belittle him anyway, if it wasn't this, it would be something else

but I do agree it is quite annoying.

When I have been questioned about it, I refer people to the situation room photo. nadinbrzezinski had a great post on what was going on and what it means...http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x1020715 highly recommended

The wait ages you something fierce and having real time/near real time updates would only make it worse.

[Solomon]

14. At this point, you can only laugh.

It pisses me off too, but then I just laugh at the ingenuity of the ridiculousness. The bigger the success, the more bullshit.

Look at it this way. You can certainly tell when something resally hurts them bad, can't you. They howl like banshees.

[w8liftinglady]

17. as I've said before, if he'd given each a golden goose, they'd bitch about the taste.

They can't handle it... that they were outdone by a ...sputter... Democrat. My neighbors are fucking silent...we buried a soldier Sunday- you'd think they'd be dancing in the streets,their Tea party attire in full force.

[edbermac]

18. Let them. Watch what happens in the 2012 election.

BO will just spit it all back in their faces.

[murielm99]

19. Point at them and laugh.

Then shrug and laugh some more.

They hate ridicule, even though they are ridiculous.

[lpbk2713]

21. That's what they do consistently.

They all know if one of them dares to say something even mildly positive about Obama the next day OxyRush Limbaugh and the other RW Media Hatemongers will be dragging them through the mud and the Shittoheads will be calling and emailing them parroting whatever vile comments they hear on the show. Has any rethuglican ever had anything negative to say about Limbaugh? If they did they certainly didn't get re-elected. They know where their bread is buttered.

[Jack_Dawson]

23. Don't let America-haters get you down

Obama sent Seal Team Six to kill Osama bin fucking Laden, and they're still not happy. Conclusion - they hate America. I don't let the KKK rile me up, and I ain't gonna let these MORANS do it either.

[applegrove]

24. And the GOP would not allow W. Bush to go to ground zero. It would

make Obama look as if he got all of America together and the GOP doesn't want those moments. They were blindsided by the support Obama got after the Gabby Giffords speech. The GOP will make Obama look like a lone wolf from here on in.

[Skidmore]

26. I'm equally disgusted with the people on DU who help Rs

spread their crap around here too then cry when you call them on their total lack of knowledge about what happened. Anything any of us out here writes or says about that operation is speculation only. We weren't there. We did not set it up or participate. Anyone pretending they know what happened is full of it.

[shanti]

28. what did you expect?

:shrug: that's what haters do!
