"What are you rambling about??"

You are clearly angry. Take a deep breath, read it and tell me which part you don't understand friend. I'll work through it with you.

"You sound very angry. And it sounds like people pointing out the errors in your post has made you angrier.

Don't take it personally. People were just making the point that your post contained the same kind of errors of which you were accusing others. Normally people on this board don't care about errors. Nobody would have bothered to say anything were it not for the apparent (and unintended) hypocrisy.

I hope you are able to address the real causes for your anger. Maybe you have been listening to a lot of right-wing media these days? They try to sell themselves by whipping people up against Democrats. And the right-wing media are the biggest hypocrites of them all. They have enabled the demise of the Republican Party into the spend and spend, big government, interventionist, anti-civil liberties, incompetent, corrupt party.

The right-wing media are so lost that they are claiming that Obama's huge victory and 6% margin in the popular vote is not a mandate for Obama's policies, when they proclaimed last Presidential election that Bush's much narrower victory and 2% margin was a huge mandate. So when the Democrats win by a margin that is no less than 3 times greater than a margin which the right-wing media said was a mandate as recently as the very last election, the right-wing media go into their la la land again. The right-wing media are totally disconnected from reality and they are whipping up people like you based on obvious lies, hatred and double standards.

You may not like to hear that and you will probably attack me for saying it, but unfortunately it's the truth friend. I wish it weren't. I truly do. And the Republicans will never be able to fix their party until they brush aside the right-wing media and really think about themselves. Think about going back to your the party's roots. Think about pre-Nixon. Think about Goldwater, Ike, TR and Lincoln. Those were fine Presidents and leaders.

Remember, you may think you hate me, but I am proud that you are my fellow American. Our soldiers are fighting to defend us. I appreciate that you are participating in the political process and are making your views known.

Best, SD"

"And both of them make...uh...um...er...Barry look...uh...um...er...like a...uh...um...er...babbling...uh...um...er...idiot. Oh...wait...it was Barry who made Barry look like an idiot. LOL!"

Sorry friend. If you want to add up each idiotic statement per unit of speaking (word, time speaking etc.), I am sure that you will find that Bush and Palin are many many multiples of Obama. There is a cottage industry built on dumb Bushisms. And Palin is catching up rapidly in only three months.

Just the facts. Those darn facterationisms can be so annoying sometimes ;)

I don't think I used all of my energy to convince anyone to vote for Obama, but it does seem that a sufficient number of people did just that. Sadly it now seems that the McCain supporters have not used up all of their energy (although I would have thought all of that hate spewing and fear mongering would have been very tiring) and now have to spend it trying to bait us into a fight. Guess it's all that left over 'maverickness'. Sorry, but I decline.

When you have limited space, especially in my fridge and freezer you learn what you can and can't buy.
