You wish.

No, I don't wish- just keeping both eyes open JIC.

And people actually argued that Trump was worse from a libertarian perspective...

Wow Olbermann is still on the air? And I thought two-branches of government being back in the command of GOP was the only news I was going to hear of today.

Does he have some special glasses that let him read while looking ahead straight--why does he keep moving papers over while never looking down?

At any rate what a raving windbag of a bullshitter he is.

He is connecting a Trump win to 9/11/2001... In all honestly I am baffled, trying to think of a snappy response, but, my mind, it, it is overloading, must stop, I, I, can't, too, many, thoughts at once. ... ...

So, then Democrats are going to demand Trump be impeached by a Republican controlled House? ...Now where did I leave my Austin Powers meme...

Uh oh. One more final feeding?

I knew it! I knew that would happen if she lost. Everyone stay on your toes. It's going to be a long couple of months.

Are they, though? Here in CA, the reaction is pure, unadulterated rage and utter contempt and hatred for Trump supporters. I hope they keep doubling down. It'll turn the Dems into the UK Labour Party, that only appeals to nutty neo-Marxists and SJWs.

It's very good that I was no where near a democrat gathering. If I saw them crying over Hillary, I simply would have had Zero control over my fits of laughter, even as they became enraged and kicked me to death.

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.

When a candidate for public office faces the voters he does not face men of sense; he faces a mob of men whose chief distinguishing mark is the fact that they are quite incapable of weighing ideas, or even of comprehending any save the most elemental — men whose whole thinking is done in terms of emotion, and whose dominant emotion is dread of what they cannot understand. So confronted, the candidate must either bark with the pack or be lost... All the odds are on the man who is, intrinsically, the most devious and mediocre — the man who can most adeptly disperse the notion that his mind is a virtual vacuum. The Presidency tends, year by year, to go to such men. As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Compiled a few Mencken quotes.

Bump. Just copy pastad this on my local newspaper website, hopefully it'll give the lefties something to think about while licking their wounds.

People were crying like that when Ron Paul lost the primary. What do you think they would have done if someone started laughing at them?

Some hotheads probably would get enraged, maybe physical. I have never cried over politics, seems over the top to me. My political emotions are anger,happiness and blah, very little in between, but seeing all the SJW's, race baitors, and radical feminists(Hillary supporters) lose is just to sweet.
