Interesting how Dems react to an electoral loss compared to how Repukes react

Here at DU, we saw it in 2002, 2004, and again today.

"I'm moving to Canada/Europe/Costa Rica. F--- this shit!"


So predictable.


We saw it in 2006 and 2008 from the Republicans.

"I'm buying guns/ammo/gold. I'm joining a militia. Second Amendment, baby!"



99.9% of both sides are full of shit. Repukes, except for that 0.1%, weren't going to be enforcing "second Amendment solutions". Put down your damn toys, idiots.

Dems, except for that 0.1%, ain't going anywhere. We're going to stay and fight for what we believe in.




It's as funny reading these silly "I'm going to Canada" threads as it was reading the silly "I'm taking my gun to capital hill!" threads on right-wing sites two years ago.



You'll stay and fight..... most of you....


Take a break for a week to mourn. Then get your ass back here and get to work.

2. What do disgruntled independents do? Buy a gun AND join a militia in Canada?

3. We'll fight - for ourselves, our children, the country and the planet - but we...
...haven't decided which politicians will actually FIGHT for them with us - we'll see...

5. If you're going to move... move to California.....

At least there the government is now sane.

6. A big reason why we keep falling behind, IMO
Just as all of the $20 donations to Grayson couldn't overcome the Chamber of Commerce, all of our meetings won't do much against Big Media and Hate Radio. Eventually enough people will get pissed enough to really stir things up. Until then, the fascism will obtain.
