Watching the post election coverage, I got the distinct impression that among some black voters, there was an element of revenge in electing O.

I got that sense when my cousin (who did vote for 0) told me he hoped I suffered under Barack as much as "they" have all suffered these eight years under Bush. Which is stupid, since he hasn't actually hated Bush for eight years, but I digress...

Charles:

Newsbusters pointed out that Michael Crichton predicted the death of the MSM fifteen years ago.

I am the author of a novel about dinosaurs, a novel about US-Japanese trade relations, and a forthcoming novel about sexual harassment - what some people have called my dinosaur trilogy. But I want to focus on another dinosaur, one that may be on the road to extinction. I am referring to the American media. And I use the term extinction literally. To my mind, it is likely that what we now understand as the mass media will be gone within ten years. Vanished, without a trace.

There has been evidence of impending extinction for a long time. We all know statistics about the decline in newspaper readers and network television viewers. The polls show increasingly negative public attitudes toward the press - and with good reason. A generation ago, Paddy Chayevsky's Network looked like an outrageous farce. Today, when Geraldo Rivera bares his buttocks, when the New York Times misquotes Barbie (the doll), and NBC fakes news footage of exploding trucks, Network looks like a documentary.

By all means, go read the whole thing. It's not just a keeper, it's worth bookmarking.

We are returning to the press ethics of 18th and 19th century.

I'm not a fan of FOX News either -- I'd never subscribe to Fox News.

I remember Al Gore's magnanimous concession speech that made Chris Matthews all weepy with its grace and talk of working together. Look how long Democratic grace lasted back then. Let's face it, come January 1, it is on. And another thing, I voted for McCain despite him being a traitor to the second and first amendments to the Constitution because I couldn't stomach a Marxist. Charles is right, the religious right can just keep their mouths shut if they want my vote. I believe as strongly in the Fourth Amendment as I do in the Second because I am not a F'ing hypocrite. And if people think we have the power to deny gay people the 'right' to get married, then the government has the right to f*#k with any aspect of our private lives. Let's focus on what made this country great, small government with limited powers and the freedom to do whatever the f*ck you want as long as you don't hurt someone else. Any proposal beyond that, and you are losing me.

No, the ethics in the 18th and 19th century were better. Today's media like to pretend they're hiding their political affiliation and are unbiased. At least in the 18th and 19th century, when you picked up the "Thatburg Democrat" or the "Thisville Republican", the paper's title's were touting their bias openly.

Yeah, right. They really suffered. It almost makes me wish they actually did suffer, for saying such a stupid thing.

But, of course, not being a lefty, I don't wish suffering on anyone. They're such evil creatures, apparently, there on DU and DKOS.

I remember being young (11 maybe?) and I walked up to my father, who was outside working on the pool pump. I asked him what Affirmative Action was. He stopped working, looked at me and said "It means if you're white and you're male, so you're f***d". Needless to say, it made an impression on me.

As soon as Palin started hinting at mentioning Bill Ayers, McCain told her to shut up immediately, lest she cause him to win the election.

He's a true American hero. He could screw up five electionsm and I'd still respect him. Nevertheless, this time he seriously, royally screwed the pooch. And he recklessly put his country in enormous danger in doing so. It is time for him to get the hell out of politics.

I for one welcome our new liberal overlords... but on a more serious note:

This nation has survived some tough times. World war(s), domestic and world economic distress, and even civil war. We have been tested in just about every way imaginable, and yet we go on. We have even survived numerous presidents who's judgment was less than adequate, or who's experience didn't measure up to expectations.. James Buchanan, Herbert Hoover, Richard Nixon, and Jimmy Carter for instance.

That being said. I have allot of faith in this country, and believe we can survive just about anything, that's what we do.

I wish the President elect the best of luck, not only because of his victory in this election, but also as I have an uneasy feeling he and this country are going need it in the next few years. Who knows, he may surprise us all.

Dear [name redacted],
thank you for your email. Today is truly a historic day! I finally feel that all of our faithful attention to social issues of these times as illustrated by Earth Day, UN celebrations, worldly brotherhood, racial equality and the various peace emblems that we stress at [school name] will have a say at the highest level of government. Thanks to these efforts, I now have the opportunity to send a heretofore unexpected amount of my present and future wealth to the leaders of our great nation to be used as they see fit, because, you see, they believe spreading it around is better for everyone. We can be relieved to know that they know better than I what my money should be used for. I would love to help, and actually intended to support the new music program healthily, but I am in the first group of those deemed not to have paid my fair share and alas, must do my patriotic duty. I refer all future fundraising requests to whomever voted for our president-elect.
Until then, enjoy the Change!
Respectfully,
[name redacted]

Needless to say, I'm dying to hear the response.

One side of my family gets lost, some horse thieving involved and a family move and name change. The other side goes can be traced back to the First Minister of the first Protestant Church in Kent, England, active in the abolition movement, to homes and churches on the underground railroad.

I can't wait to see what happens when Barry cannot pull all the rabbits out of his hat that he promised. I was surprised how palpable the "Okay, now what happens" hangover was with my liberal friends. Bush will be gone, their guy will be the one in charge, they've been completely consumed with their irrational "blame everything on Bush". You can just hear a massive, "Oh, s---" building.

That's why I'm stocking up on popcorn.

Obama, Reid and Pelosi are not going to be able to do everything they have been promising their followers, and their majority in Congress will be enough that they won't be able to blame it on the Republicans.

I don't think it's occurred to them, yet, that they won't be able to blame everything on Chimpy McBushitler and the Rethuglicans any more.

What was that Wright said about chickens and roosts?

They've been coasting on that for awhile. I mean, when you can make hay the way they did out of a natural disaster, you've got it easy.

Popcorn moments already starting-Kerry as Secretary of State?
Biden as VP so they can't hide him.

And the biggest fun of all, they have to let Michelle Obama out of the box. Between her and Biden, it's going to be fun!

If the coal industry goes under, the rail road industry will follow suit. Almost 50% of all cargo moved by rail in the US is coal. Apparently my "Transportation 202" class is not as useless as I thought.

Down, boy. This WAS reported - that there was tension between the camps. The dirty details were not - and from what I hear, a lot of it sounds like stuff mean people say about each other behind their backs. None of it has any evidence, so it sounds like gossip to me. Gawker level stuff.

So is the racial breakdown of who voted for Obama proof that whites in general are not as racist as other races like say, African Americans, who voted down racial lines compared to whites? If a white votes for a white because he is white is that racism? If a black votes for a black because he is black, is that racism? What race polices itself the hardest when it comes to racism? Do we need a to have black or minority or victim class Republican candidates from now on? Is electing a candidate by race a one-trick pony, or can it be more than once?

Can we defuse the weapon of Racism that the Democrats have been beating us over the head with forever?

re: #137 mahatma coat

Sure. A marriage license is a piece of paper issued by a clerk at a county office building to any two male and female jackasses that walk in the door. The Declaration of Independance and the Constitution guarantee freedom to pursue happiness and equal protection under the law. There is no legal basis to deny a gay couple a marriage license. NONE OF THIS FORCES A CHURCH TO ACCEPT GAYS OR CONSECRATE A GAY MARRIAGE BEFORE THE EYES OF (your) GOD. So, there you have it. Gays will never be 'married' in your eyes because your god forbids it.

One thing that was mentioned on Charles' "social conservative" thread is worthy of mention here; McCain is exactly why there is no room for a "personality" leader in the GOP--now or ever. McCain ran from his heart, bey he had no real plan. He never, not that I noticed, ever said what the details of his economic or social plan would have been. He was, in my assessment, more a personality than a politician. He never enunciated any social or political principles. Given that he was not a true conservative, it's not hard to see why.

"Oh, it's all right. I've planned ahead. We're just three miles from a primary target. A millisecond of brilliant light, and we're vaporised. Much more fortunate than the millions who'll wander sightless through the smouldering aftermath. We'll be spared the horror of survival."
-Stephen Faulken, WarGames

That's a cheery thought!

Gays are not popular in the African-American community. With a large black turnout, it is no surprise gay marriage bans passed easily.

What, they don't like Little Richard's music and Paul Winfield's movies? Well knock me over with a feather.

Oh man! That is THE BEST LAUGH I've had all day! My next door neighbors are mormon, I can just imagine!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

CNN's unique "math". Methinks they need a lesson in rounding.
[Link: www.cnn.com...]
Obama: 63,896,968 - 53.1134%
McCain: 56,405,897 - 46.8866%
CNN shows the percentage 53-46.
Excuse me?

Why can't someone like Thomas Sowell be the future face or the Republican Party. I am a registered republican and have never voted deomcrat. Now pay attention, everyone, I will never vote for Jindal.

re: #239 Cognito

You really hate that guy.

I don't hate anyone. I think he would be an absolute disaster for the Republican Party. See:

It's Bobby Jindal (sp?)...

Work or home?
Either works there or here... Now I'm confusing myself!
Can I use a shout out?

re: #230 wkett

When the Democrats need a few Republicans to break a Filibuster how come I think there will be a good chance McCain will cross over.

Reid has already said so in as many words.

re: #215 RELOADINGISNOTAHOBBY

Nope!
I'm at home!
Speaking of cases... Where's the beer I brought and didn't drink last night?

WC Fields: Innkeeper! Was I in here last night?
Bartender: Yes sir.
WC Fields: And did I spend a one hundred dollar bill?
Bartender: Yes sir.
WC Fields: Oh, Thank G*d! I thought I'd lost it!
