I'll explain this slowly to Joe so he'll get it: Evangelicals often already have political power. To see them running out to vote for people who will continue to oppress the downtrodden is not inspiring, especially since they base their enthusiasm on some vision of a vengeful sky god.

To see people who don't have a lot of political power band together and make something like this happen is inspiring. They are people who never thought they would have representation, unlike the fundies, who have it to spare.

Get it?

1. He's the biggest whiner on TV
I saw that little rant of his early this morning. He just can't stop. "Morning Joe" is now essentially a right-wing program.

2. Demonized. Yeah. Just like Satan was--
and for pretty much the same reason.

3. If you see a video of Tucker Carlson...

..he was really whining and crying this morning. Saying how people celebrating Obama shouldn't do it in a way that alienates people who voted the other way.
:rofl:

4. People like him do not want to get it.
They see that fundie voting block and go after it at all costs, eg. putting Palin in the VP slot. Cooler heads will have to prevail in the gop to boot them out.

reputation around the world. All we did was mention what actually happened. It would be demonized if we were making it up. Of course they voted fears as all they said they voted on was fear of Barack, sure some said they liked McCain but it wasn't hugely present. It's more for the party's supporters to make the party more socially acceptable than to say it's judgement call, the GOP evoked their voters fears.

9. You demonized yourselves.

Tune into Rush Limbaugh for one day Joe. Listen to James Dobson "preach" hatred and tell me who demonized whom?

12. I've endured disgusting hateful racist rhetoric from Republicans I know
in this election. I will not sit back and listen to them whine about how they have been "demonized." GRR!

Thanks King Coal. :hi:

13. I've said it once and I'll say it again
The Republicans preached black and white, good vs. evil for so long that they defined themselves in opposition to everything that was good, thereby defining THEMSELVES as evil.

10. Poor Joe. What a sad individual. He just doesn't understand
why we abhor people who cling to the Republican lust for worshipping the BUCK while pretending to worship God.

14. When your side of the aisle actually does something positive
Edited on Wed Nov-05-08 05:12 PM by Downtown Hound
for the world Joe, then go ahead and ask for us to be happy for you. But Republican victories tend to mean war, poverty, despair, and oppression. That's why we don't celebrate. And that's why, last night, millions of people around the world cried out in a new voice of freedom the likes of which has not been seen for some time. You guys are the evil empire, and last night you came crashing down.

15. What a loser!
" I want to disabuse people of the thought process that when your side is engaged in politics it is a worthy and noble thing, but when people who don't think exactly like you, it is evil."

I can't believe he said this, what a douche. Now he's calling himself open minded :puke:
