Fix it or Fuck it.

            Want to guarantee further losses in the next election? Just continue to allow guys like Ted Rall to speak for you folks. Don’t bitch about your party when you let assclowns like this rule the roost. Some money quotage from his latest screed: (along with a touch of Fisk powder from yours truly… all bold and emphasis mine)

 

 

Would Bush's supporters have voted for him even if they had known he was a serial liar? Perhaps their hatred of homosexuals and slutty abortion vixens (yeah that war on terror meant nothing Teddy – G.)would have prompted them to make the same choice--an idiotic perversion of priorities (interesting choice of words – G). As things stand, they cast their ballots relying on assumptions that were demonstrably false.

Educational achievement doesn't necessarily equal intelligence. After all, Bush holds a Harvard MBA. Still, it bears noting that Democrats are better educated than Republicans. (So if it doesn’t mean anything to have a degree what is the point of this? -G. )You are 25 percent more likely to hold a college degree if you live in the Democratic northeast than in the red state south. Blue state voters are 25 percent more likely, therefore, to understand the historical and cultural ramifications of Bush's brand of bull-in-a-china-shop foreign policy. (I think you have something there Ted…. they do know what it means and fear that those results will point up their own history of abject fucking failure to do anything useful in foreign policy arena – G.)

Inland Americans face a bigger challenge than coastal "cultural elitists" when it comes to finding high-quality news coverage. The best newspapers, which routinely win prizes for their in-depth local and national reporting and staffers overseas, line the coasts. So do the cable TV networks with the broadest offerings and most independent radio stations. Bush Country makes do with Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity syndicated on one cookie-cutter AM outlet after another. Citizens of the blue states read lackluster dailies stuffed with generic stories cut and pasted from wire services. (So Ted what you are saying is that liberal states have the same acess to media as red states? Do you even know a proofreader? -G) Given their dismal access to high-quality media, it's a minor miracle that 40 percent of Mississippians turned out for Kerry. (Ah! Had they only seen more ads! They must not have known that Kerry served in Vietnam! That’s the ticket! – G)

So our guy lost the election. Why shouldn't those of us on the coasts feel superior (Oh Ted that is too easy… Don’t give me these sorts of softballs, you can do better…-G.)? We eat better, travel more, dress better, watch cooler movies (Why aren’t the quality of voters cinema selections a requirement for franchise? Huh? -G. ), earn better salaries, meet more interesting people, listen to better music and know more about what's going on in the world (Unless of course you count what is going on in our own borders where we of course were living in a fucking fantasy until Nov 2 -G) . If you voted for Bush, we accept that we have to share the country with you (How kind, fuckpole -G.). We're adjusting to the possibility (hmmm not so good with the math apparently Ted… I think there were several million more on election day which makes it more than a “possibility” -G. ) that there may be more of you than there are of us. But don't demand our respect (Don’t need to demand it flocko. We already own it. That’s what happens when you lose elections… you bow to the will of the winning majority… so bow down Nancy-boy – G.). You lost it on November 2. (Well someone did lose…. -G.)

Well, what about Ann Coulter?

A partisan hack...
You make the start of a good point NJ but... She did not help conservatives lose the election either... you know why? because we won...


...and had you lost, you'd be blaming Ann now. *shrugs* Ted Rall speaks no more for us sane Dems than Ann Coulter speaks for
same Republicans. We lost by 119,000 votes in Ohio and lost the presidency. While many people would have you believe different things on how this was accomplished, I do not think Ted Rall and looniest left did it any more than Ann Coulter and her retrograde rightists made the election any closer.
