Just about to ditch all these pearl clutchers.

I know the feeling, I'm seriously tempted just to take a break from Free Republic and the rest of conservative media until after Trump Inauguration Day.

We won.
It's over.
Trump will take the Oath of Office on January 20th.
End of Story.

But instead of celebrating all I have to see is 500 BS stories every day about how Hillary is mere seconds away from stealing the election. Even though not one credible new source says there is even a sliver of chance that could happen. Trump certainly isn't concerned. He's busy measuring the Oval Office drapes, and if he's not concerned, I sure as heck am not going to ruin my holiday season thinking about it.

Same here. Stuff like this is just bad for the blood pressure. Look, the country as a whole recognizes Trump as the next President. World leaders and the world's people recognize Trump as the next President. Jill Stein or Hillary Clinton won't change this.

FR is a news forum. But it allows individuals to compete for responses by posting sensational "news" stories. Hence the objective becomes for individual Freepers to outdo one another. It's an attention seeking ploy.

They don't care where the information comes from, as long as it's "attention" grabbing.

I've even seen "news" posted that has as its source college bulletins. Ridiculous. The worst is the constant "vanity" as news.

I'm with you. It's time to take a break. We're trying to locate a sane voice in the midst of screaming children.

If they’re just trying to jerk me around, they’re succeeding.

I went to bed one night happy in the knowledge that Algore had conceded, that Count Taxula was in the rear-view mirror. Waking up to the Florida recount lunacy was quite a shock.

People are fearful that is why there are pessimistic statements. The fear is not totally without basis as the negro community organizer from Chicago has pulled many an unconstitutional act.
