Whew, the 19 percenters are coming out of their hidey-holes |
|
No matter where you go on line, there's talk about the booing last night in DC of President Lostbrains throwing out the first pitch. I have to admit, they've been quiet, but last night built a fire under their butts as they sat in their mothers' basements typing on the internets. They are still out there, unfortunately. But I believe they are a bit afraid to realize that they're hero is sooooooo hated. They're blaming everyone - from radical leftists to the "librul media." I can guarantee you that many of those fans last night are probably somewhat apolitical; but even an uninformed citizen can see the shit we're in and Bush has been throwing the feces around for seven long years.
It just strikes me as amazing how anyone can still support this man. He is, without a doubt, the worst president in our lifetimes. Perhaps in the whole history of our republic.

1. Because it's sports related: the corporate sports machine is pure religion in America |

3. You know, I believe you are absolutely correct |
|
And really, how many times can an audience of a nationally televised event hear the president booed so vociferously?

2. I still remember a story of an Obama canvasser... |
|
who said he/she was somewhere (I don't want to cast aspersions) and the guy said he was going to vote for Bush AGAIN. This is part of what we're up against.

12. Most cogent response so far. Fetish! There is something perverse about it, isn't there? n/t |

5. I find it funny how the right wingers get so PC |
|
After years of saying PC is a bad thing, they go and do it worse than any liberal ever did.

8. Oh, that's actually good |
|
I heard a lot of cheers as well as boos in the video, and I thought the right-wing apologists would either focus on the times when the cheers were louder (the volume of each varied during the video), or they would claim that people were yelling, "Buuuuuuuuush!"
It's good that they, like Bush, were finally exposed to reality.
Where are some of the comments?

10. Oh, go to MLB.com or CBSsports.com |
|
and they are livid. "Respect the office." "The media is 90 percent liberal." "I bet those liberals were getting their welfare checks and sending them to Osama." "They blame everything on Bush, so what's new?"
I pointed out to the one who mentioned welfare checks if he had enlisted to go over to Iraq. I haven't checked for his reponse as of yet. But boy, are they upset and coming out like cockroaches when the lights are turned off.

11. Call me old school on this but I've never associated sports fans with liberalism/activism |
|
Yes, I realize how there are many dem sports fans ... calm down. Just sayin' that's my estimation based on residual experiences.

13. Those 19percenters are probably Republicans who still think that |
|
denouncing a Republican president is equivalent to denouncing the Republican party.
Major denial.

|
stations? If they love this guy so much they should do a little more than just post nasty comments on youtube.

15. Anonymity greatly increases their likelihood of demonstrative assholism |
