   So when exactly has Obama ever blamed anything in the campaign on racism?

   Spin your excuses, wingnuts. Cause you’re going down.

   Hey Zippy the Pin Head,

   Obama says nothing, just like on most subjects. He has his toadies say it.

   Oh nevermind, you’re just a hateful reality-denier.

   “So, they’re gonna tell you he’s not experienced enough. He’s got a funny name. Oh, did I mention he’s black?” – Barack Obama
   Don’t be stupid, Clownie. Barry’s been playing the race card from day one.

   The good news is Jimmy Carter lead to Ronald Reagan.

   If Obama does win, It’s likely only a momentary lapse of reason.

   RR should have won the nomination in 1976. Lost narrowly to a wimpy (but well meaning) Jerry Ford. Let’s see, that lines up Mitt Romney for 2012. Romney-Palin 2012.

   If Barry wins tomorrow, I will be the first activist in the east metro to have a “01-20-13” bumper sticker on his car. (or whatever Romney’s inauguration date is).

   Well go out and vote, you wacky wingnuts! One day you can proudly tell your grandkids you voted against President Obama, with all the pride that your kooky grandpappies might have boasted to you about voting for Hoover in ’32, Dewey in ’48, Nixon in ’60. Or maybe you’ll lie out of embarrassment. Either way, you’re on the wrong side of history.

   Perhaps voting for FDR, the man who prolonged the depression & threw the Constitution out the window may have made you proud. But to do so, You’d either have to be an Angry, Ignorant Clown or a Hateful Reality Denier.

   And in the same line of idiotic (il)logic so frequently displayed by you, you must be embarrassed for voting for these losers:

   Stevenson in 1956 & 1952

   Humphrey in 1968

   McGovern in 1972

   Carter in 1980

   Mondale in 1984

   Dukakis in 1988

   Gore in 2000

   Kerry in 2004

   Man, your list of embarrassments in the face of your grand kids is REALLY long!

    I’ve always loved that term “the wrong side of history.” It sounds so powerful and meaningful, when in reality it’s just a bunch of crap. If you wake up above ground, nice and alive and breathing, you’re on the right side of history, no matter how you vote.

    Zat so, Mitch? Cause it’s the kind of thing you routinely deny when somebody tries to pin a similar charge on the Republicans. Alas for your side, today is a day when votes count, not alibis and whining.

    I deny what? That candidates let their minions do their dirty work for them?

    As a dirty-work-doing minion, I declare you mistaken, sir. And very likely a tax cheat, too.

    Actually, Hoover, by increasing government spending and involvement, also did his part to prolong the Depression. In the same way, of course, as FDR did. Why one of them is respected and the other is demonized probably has a lot more to do with Hitler and Hirohito than anyone else.
