2008 Election - Offseason

[Whiffleball]

McCain is such a maverick, he won't concede.

"My friends, we're going to Alaska with Sarah and all my friends, and we're going to create the Republic of Mavericka & Friends, my friends, and we're going to maverick it up, my friends!"

[Cornelius]

Jesse Jackson is crying. Fag.

[Pax Britannia]

Alright, now what are we all going to change into?

Socialists.

[AJ]

I bet those schmucks in Phoenix feel stupid for standing there for 5 hours while their candidate lost by a landslide.

[Kerjack]

I feel sorry for McCain, having such a crappy crowd. Boos are going to sound lovely in history specials in years to come.

[UNC]

Obama is Tater!

[Genius]

If McCain would have run his campaign like this, he might have had a chance.

[dadaelus]

No pressure.
More like he finally knifed his election team.

[kid_vidrio]

started rough with the racial thing, but damn if McCain's speech has not been too bad.

[mcnastasty]

been laid off for 3 weeks, i better go back to fuckin work soon.

[Pax Britannia]

McCain might choke up.

[AJ]

"The failure is mine, not yours."

[dadaelus]

Jesus. What a bunch of crap from the crowd.

[UNC]

McCain still has a desert to run

[Mustard]

started rough with the racial thing, but damn if McCain's speech has not been too bad.
That is because Sarah Palin isn't speaking.

[Genius]

Oh, no. Not Palin. ANYONE BUT PALIN FUCK THE WHORE!!!

[WigglingWii]

Is Palin crying?

[dadaelus]

No way do we deal with Palin again. Someone throw some water on her, let her melt away

[Pax Britannia]

Is Palin crying?

She's welling up.

[AJ]

So let me get this straight. We have a new president who has never been in charge of anything other than editing his college newspaper?

[Kerjack]

I know it sounds horrible but is it just me or is Palin more attractive when it looks like she is going to cry?

[Genius]

So let me get this straight. We have a new president who has never been in charge of anything other than editing his college newspaper?
Oh go to the bar already.

[Pax Britannia]

So let me get this straight. We have a new president who has never been in charge of anything other than editing his college newspaper?

Congrats.

[kid_vidrio]

Todd Palin looks a lot like Scott Peterson.
Keep your eyes peeled Sarah, or Scott just might.

[Mustard]

Is there any doubt that picking Sarah Palin completely ruined McCain's chances of winning?

[nuclearjew]

I know it sounds horrible but is it just me or is Palin more attractive when it looks like she is going to cry?
What's the quote about strippers being most beautiful when they're crying? Yeah.

[dadaelus]

What a shitty crowd. None of them that boo could lick McCain's boot.

[Pax Britannia]

Is there any doubt that picking Sarah Palin completely ruined McCain's chances of winning?

He lost the independent vote on which his entire campaign hinged by choosing her.

[dadaelus]

Is there any doubt that picking Sarah Palin completely ruined McCain's chances of winning?
That and picking Rove's cronies.

[kid_vidrio]

did McCain just quote 'Galaxy Quest?'

[Mustard]

He lost the independent vote on which his entire campaign hinged by choosing her.
That is exactly right. He solidified the GOP base with Palin, but shuned pretty much everyone else.

[Pax Britannia]

Is that the music from Crimson Tide playing in the background?

[The Batman]

well at least its finally over and it looks like this country might not be completely full of ignorant to reality christian rednecks. :)

[dadaelus]

Cindy won't touch him. What a hoot. A sad sad hoot

[AJ]

No seriously.

So let me get this straight. We have a new president who has never been in charge of anything other than editing his college newspaper?

[Pax Britannia]

did McCain just quote 'Galaxy Quest?'

Never give up, Never surrender.

[AJ]

I thought that was a Jean-Claude Van Damme movie.

No retreat, no surrender.

[Insomniac]

God bless John McCain.

[Mustard]

Is that the music from Crimson Tide playing in the background?
Yeah, it was.

[Le Goat]

I just saw a 2mile long african tribal dance line swing past my street. THE ******* ARE TAKING BACK THEIR GOVERNMENT FUNDED LAND!!!!!11

[taters]

As the GMF's designated official African American and Democrat..... I can only say FUCK YEA MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

[Pax Britannia]

Yeah, it was.

I just had a fucking revelation.

That music plays at the end of Crimson Tide where an old white Navy captain admits to a young African American commander of the post cold war era that he was wrong and then walks away into the sunset. Anyone else get that?

Or am I just a little drunk?

[Insomniac]

Pirates of the Caribbean played, too.

Woah, that is deep.

So does Barack Obama get his own nuclear sub now?

[Pax Britannia]

Woah, that is deep.

So does Barack Obama get his own nuclear sub now?

He gets the whole fleet. And the codes to the nukes.

[BIG PIZZLE]

The code is 5

[Genius]

Woah, that is deep.

So does Barack Obama get his own nuclear sub now?
Actually, a couple dozen of them.

[Will-Kill]

HE IS HALF BLACK!!!!

[dadaelus]

The next highlight will be watching Obama get sworn in by Roberts and seeing the acceptance speech with W forced to watch.

[BIG PIZZLE]

So when do we get annexed by Kenya? And where are the aliens? This has been quite the disappointment so far.

Interesting... Not bad for a half black secret muslim socialist.

Nine emails this month say it's hardly a secret.

[Jericho]

The first year since I've been eligible that I kinda liked each nominee in their own way, but fucking hated both running mates

[Spanky]

When asked what his "CHANGE" promise was all about, Obama stated, "Come Help A Nigg3r Get Elected."

[Le Goat]

What's the over/under on assassination?

Within the first two years. I'll even go as far to say within the first 9 months

[NOTKyle]

Thank. Fucking. God.

Ok, I'm disappointed there has not been a terrorist attack yet on this new weakened America.

ok, here is the deal oh lovers of socialism. Treasury announced today it needs to sell off 550 billion in debt this year and another 400 billion next year, if ANY of you think you are getting a tax break from this dipshit's administration you are complete fools. Taxes are going to go up, and with all his free shit, the baby boomers get ready for the lower income brackets to write checks to the government.

Obama will spread the wealth all over your face.

[Claydon]

not if you get a 60% tax rate. California is dieing for money, state income is going to go up as well, it is inevitable. Im sure the firm you work for is going to have to cough up a shit ton more to the city of los angeles as well since the city is running a large deficit.

so, how exactly will the working press/msnbc et al function without a Bush to obsess over the next 4 years?

will they spend their time inventing scenarios where repubs are somehow keeping obama from achieving his grandiose plans?

or will they just focus on how perfect his administration is?

tisk tisk..choices choices!

[Claydon]

The good news is Carter was followed by Reagan.

The bad news is, it took 10% inflation rate, interest rates through the roof and 10%+ unemployment to get rid of carter. Still worst is the fact that reagan is under a six foot marble slab in Moorpark California.

I imagine it will be alot like Fox News the past 8 years...

[Pax Britannia]

I think the real reason all these civil rights leaders like Jackson and Sharpton are tearing up is because they realise they cant keep peddling the same race hate shit they have been for the past 40 years. They've also been able to console themselves by saying their electoral failures are because America is inherently a racist country.

Obama has simultaneously fulfilled all their hopes and destroyed their livelihoods.

[heelsguy]

prob because he thinks he should have been prez in 88. too busy with the secret illigit child to run a good campaign.

Everyone roars about communism, but every world historian, as well as the nation of russia and ANYONE whos ever taken a history class knows the USSR was failing in the fucking 70's. He was just there to grandstand upon its final pang.

On top of that, he was a bigot, his cabinet were bigots (Will "best way to bring down crime is to force black abortions" bennet), and morons (James "we dont need to worry about the environment because rapture is coming" Watt). He was almost as bad as bush, and the only thing that differs him is that 9/11 happened on bushs watch.

It's the beginning of a new era. Of reborn hope. And presidential-themed interracial porn.

And it's a disgrace, A DISGRACE, that this is the only youtube clip of this song. How am I supposed to celebrate watching this?

I think if you're going to do a movie about Reagan you do it about the fact that he created the huge deficit, that he armed the mujahadeen, that he armed Saddam, that he armed Iran, he armed 2/3s of the Axis of Evil, he funded terrorists in Central America, he was in my mind a terrible president.

Those of us who were alive then, know you're full of shit.

i hate me some taters.

[Titus_Pullo]

How can anyone vote for Al Franken?

[Soup Nazi]

Tater is a real killjoy to us who voted for Obama.

[mongo]

he's cute.

[Oggie]

He's funny.

[Titus_Pullo]

He's a psycho.

[Genius]

After Jesse the Body, THE PEOPLE OF MINNE-SO-TA will vote for just about anybody.

[Titus_Pullo]

I'm a centrist GOPer, and I'll say that it would be just as ridiculous to have Sean Hannity or Rush Limbaugh elected to the Senate as it would to have Al Franken elected.

[Face]

Al Franken is an idiot, Reagan didn't arm the Mujahideen, Tom Hanks did

[Titus_Pullo]

Well, congrats to Obama and the Dems for finally getting a Presidential candidate over 50% of the popular vote since Jimmy Carter. Christ, that was longer than the Philadelphia championship drought.

[Cornelius]

Those of us who were alive then, know you're full of shit.

Thank you.

[Cornelius]

btw did Wii give us the promised pics yet?

[Oggie]

She PM'ed me some.

[mongo]

her tits are overrated.

[Cornelius]

Well shit...
I want to be the judge of that too.

[Oggie]

I fapped.

[Stax]

pixplz

[Oggie]

I promised I wouldn't share unless she did.

[Titus_Pullo]

Why do I keep seeing pics of Joe Biden with Obama celebrating the victory? Did he have something to do with the election? He is from Delaware,right?

[Deadhead Derek]

well, he did win his senate seat...

[Oggie]

Hi. I'm in...Delaware...

[mongo]

well, he did win his senate seat...

i'm a bit of a poli nOOb, so tell me, what happens to his seat if/when he wins it.

[TheImpossibleMan]

god yes thank you. Obama deliever us from evil.

[Titus_Pullo]

Delaware: Where people in Philly used to go buy Powerball tickets when the prize became ridiculously huge.

I don't think they fully recovered since PA became a Powerball state.

[Stax]

It's looking like the Republicans might have managed to just barely limit the damage in the Senate. Coleman just barely ahead, Merkley (the Dem in Oregon) just barely leading), Stevens leading early (and if he wins/resigns Palin gets to stick in herself or someone else) and I don't know why CNN hasn't called GA for the Republican yet. Looks like they might've held it to a 57 seat majority (56 called plus Oregon), not the closer-to-filibuster proof 58, 59, or 60 that was possible.

[freegood]

Does the country really need a fillibuster proof majority?

[Titus_Pullo]

Don't be too torn up, if the Dems had a filibuster proof Senate it would be much harder for them and the press to blame their failings on the Republicans.

[Stax]

Does the country really need a fillibuster proof majority?

No, plus with 57 on many issues they'll be able to grab the Specters and Hagels of the world anyways. But every marginal vote towards the Democratic Senate majority is a pretty large step up in power.

[Deadhead Derek]

i'm a bit of a poli nOOb, so tell me, what happens to his seat if/when he wins it.
usually, the Gov. of the state can appoint to fill the post election vacancy. I think.

[Stax]

Yes. If Stevens wins and resigns or wins and is removed by the Senate Palin would appoint herself his replacement, I'd be willing to bet.

[mongo]

seems like a shitty way to go about it. i would have to think that the gov. would pick along their party lines, and to me, that is not very democratic.

[Titus_Pullo]

He is talking about Biden and Delaware.

[Stax]

Senators are the representatives of the states, they aren't supposed to be truly 100% democratic. The 17th amendment just makes them kind of super-congressmen, which is weird.

[Mustard]

Lols at Palin in the Senate.

[Stax]

Oh well yeah, but he's a Democrat from a Democratic state with a Democratic governor so... *shrug*

i understand that. however, it still feels a little fucked up.

Indiana to Obama, so my prediction is officially at least a little wrong.

He's the token that makes white people feel comfortable, like the surgeon/keyboard player in Prince's band.

[Smuckers]

Obama wins Indiana!

Obama wins Indiana!

i'm gonna win all over your face.

[Deadhead Derek]

Yes. If Stevens wins and resigns or wins and is removed by the Senate Palin would appoint herself his replacement, I'd be willing to bet.oh yeah, that is a given.

Claydon, you got bitch slapped tonight... yet you still spout off your insanities in here, predicting things that will not come true... Get ready for at least 4 years worth of "I told you so!" and "in your face!" from the new kids on the block.

I still can't believe Al Franken was nominated, let alone is ahead now. Seriously, this goes way beyond Left/Right politics to me.

[Mustard]

Well, Franken is a big time lefty, and the state has already nominated a former pro wrestler as Gov, so...

But hey, would you rather have a comic in the senate, or some religious nutbag like Sarah Palin. Because that might happen if Stevens gets elected in Alaska, then gets tossed out, then Palin appoints herself.

[Titus_Pullo]

Al Franken is the nut job.

[Mustard]

Al Franken is the nut job.
I never disputed that, but compared to Sarah Palin?

Here, in SAT word association format based on nut jobbiness:

Joe Maddon : Yogi Berra :: Al Franken : Sarah Palin

palin has a hot daughter. maddon does not.

I love The Onion. http://www.theonion.com/content/news_briefs/black_man_given_nations

WASHINGTON—African-American man Barack Obama, 47, was given the least-desirable job in the entire country Tuesday when he was elected president of the United States of America. In his new high-stress, low-reward position, Obama will be charged with such tasks as completely overhauling the nation's broken-down economy, repairing the crumbling infrastructure, and generally having to please more than 300 million Americans and cater to their every whim on a daily basis. As part of his duties, the black man will have to spend four to eight years cleaning up the messes other people left behind. The job comes with such intense scrutiny and so certain a guarantee of failure that only one other person even bothered applying for it. Said scholar and activist Mark L. Denton, "It just goes to show you that, in this country, a black man still can't catch a break."http://www.theonion.com/content/themes/onion/assets/terminator.gif

Wow, some of you conservatives are some petty mother fuckers. How the fuck is your reaction to the overwhelming election of a new president gonna be, "I hope he fucks up our country so bad you're all gonna be sucking my dick when I say I told you so"?

Anybody think that it's precisely this kind of attitude that puts them out of touch with what America really is?


Somebody said something tonight that really stuck with me. The GOP's problem in this election was that they kept referring to the white, rural, religious nut-job, not terribly educated, and why not, bigoted gun-crazy parts of the US as the "real" America; what if the "real" America actually has moved on, and is now a bunch of cosmopolitans from every race and every creed? What if the "real" America is that of 2008, not that of 1850?

As an American, shouldn't you look at this development with pride and think, "holy shit, this is what it was supposed to be about all along"?

Actually what I am considering is the enormous tax burden that is going to be piled on us at a time when we can ill afford it. Hello 1977!

[Archangel]

And Jesus, what a speech. I mean, "he can't do anything but speak"? I'm not even American, and that guy inspires ME, for fuck's sake. I'd rather have a president who can inspire the most politically apathetic generation ever to get involved than someone who can only inspire Blackwater mercenaries.

You really only do care about money, don't you. What, to you the difference between Hitler and Stalin was probably the latter's tax policy.

[Claydon]

You really only do care about money, don't you. What, to you the difference between Hitler and Stalin was probably the latter's tax policy.

What I care about is an economy that continues to grow with as little government intrusion as possible. Our fantastic government is going to sell 1 trillion in debt obligations over the next 4 months and if Obama supporters think they are getting a tax cut next year, then they are more delusional than I am when I think I am going to be a kid in a candy store when I finally get into a JPOP in Tokyo................ WAIT?!

[AJ]

I'll be honest and say that I didn't vote, because I was really apathetic about the election this year, but I have to say, the "acceptance speech" that Barack Obama gave tonight was one of the most impressive speeches without a script that I've heard in a long time. It was straight from the heart without a teleprompter, and I was really impressed.

[Menace2Sobriety]

Blackwater mercenaries.Speaking of which, I hope you bought some shares today. The troops are coming home!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm almost positive he was reading a TelePrompTer.

That doesn't take away from the fact that it was still a very inspiring, impressive, and well delivered speech though.

Claydon, maybe you should accept the fact that all is not always black or white. Your doom view of Obama being a full blown socialist is out of proportion, and your sentiment that a governement shouldn't interfer in any economical matters whatsoever is growing old and obsolete, especially in time of crisis.
