Keyes Blames Media, GOP for Loss in Ill.
Edited on Thu Nov-04-04 07:49 PM by stupidgit
CHICAGO - Alan Keyes blamed the media and fellow Republicans on Thursday for his lopsided loss to Democrat Barack Obama in the U.S. Senate race in Illinois.

Keyes also said he did not congratulate Obama after the race was called, a tradition among politicians, because doing so would have been a "false gesture" because he believes Obama's views on issues like abortion are wicked.

11. We did not get our asses kicked at all...the Reich Wing just figured out
some alternate theft tactics for this year.
And the media blithely goes along with it, la di da, look how wonderful our democracy is, no riots, no violence, ho hum...
But what really happened is:
No facts, no investigating, no reporting anything other than what is deemed 'safe,' no integrity, no honesty, no ethics. That's our mainstream 'Murkin media whores for ya...fallin' down on the job as usual.

5. He probably couldn't afford the telephone call.
Down in Peoria, people are keeping their Bush signs up, but their Keyes signs are nowhere to be found.

He's a real piece of...work.

If I weren't such a moral person, I'd hope he gets Alzheimer's, or Parkinson's, or he trips over a statue of little baby Jesus in church and gets a spinal cord injury. I'd hope he has surgery and the surgeon fucks up.

9. Keyes is a hypocritical blasphemer, just like the Village Idiot. When he
made his little rant after he got kicked, he was mixing up Bible passages with patriotic Reich-wing fervor, telling his pathetic followers that they had laid the foundations for building a house on rock rather than sand, and that rock was the moral American voter or some such bullshit...giving to the American people (the ones who agree with his sick and shallow theology) attributes that belong to Christ alone. Chimpy does the same thing ALL THE TIME, yet the Reich-wing 21st Century Pharisees blindly and adoringly follow him, because of 2 or 3 hotbutton issues that have been wrapped in the Flag and "Christianity" (almost one and the same to these morons): Abortion, Gay rights and Ten Commandments/Prayer in School/all that shit. Their theology is an inch deep and all of five inches wide, and I am not at ALL sure what Bible some of these people claim to be reading...
It makes me weep, truly...

19. Good point, Alan
"Keyes noted that 1.3 million people voted for him. "

Alan, Daffy Duck(R) would have gotten more votes than that.

22. I guess
not being invited to speak at your party's fund raisers and having the party leaders publiclly denounce you daily tends to make you a bit thin skinned, huh Alan. Hope your outta here by now since the Illinois GOP told you that they've perminantly barred you from stepping within a 500 foot radius of GOP HQ, and won't hessitate to release the dogs on your ass. (OK, that last part I made up, but I bet they told him SOMETHING like that!)

23. Keyes is the biggest piece of shit in politics
Actually, he's NOT in politics, courtesy of the kind folks of Illinois, but you get my point. I've marveled for years over the fact that somehow, somebody somewhere actually takes this brain-dead Bible-thumping GOP hypocrite (he castigated Hillary for going to NY to run for office, then what did he do? Went to IL to run for office!) seriously. Who the fuck is he to run for office or even waste people's time by telling them what he thinks?

Keyes' biggest mistake was actually thinking he might win an election in a blue state.
