It appears that most DUmmies have a hard time shaking their post-election despondency as evidenced by this THREAD. Perhaps if they didn’t GLOAT so much over the exit polls BEFORE the actual results come in, they would now be feeling a wee bit better. The problem was that the DUmmies began celebrating once they heard the phony exit poll results. It was the same syndrome that afflicted Susan Estrich who hit the champagne hard in celebration of the impending end of the Evil Bush Regime only to guzzle the bubbly stuff down even harder hours later to kill the pain when the REAL results were reported. If you saw Estrich’s performance on FNS, it was NOT a pretty sight. She was as demoralized as the following Dummies, of whom we lead off with the sad, sad DUmmie smirkymonkey. As usual the depressed and angry DUmmie postings are in Bolshevik red while the jubilant commentary of your humble correspondent is in the [brackets]:
anyone else having a REALLY HARD TIME coping?
[Yes, it is hard coping with the incredible jubilation I feel over Bush’s win on Nov. 2.]
I am such a mess. Physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.
[I agree. You are definitely a mess, smirkymonkey.]
I had no idea this would hit me so hard. I feel that all my hopes for the future have been shattered. Evil, hate and greed are rewarded. Wrong is Right. Fascism will prevail. Not to mention increased terrorism, hate crimes, isolation from the global community, loss of civil rights, etc.
[On the up side, Dunkin’ Donuts is still open all night. Feel better now, smirkymonkey?]
AND, we have to look and listen to the f*cking Chimp for another 4 long, miserable years. I don't know what to do. I am really beside myself and almost feel like I am on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
[On the verge, smirkymonkey? Methinks you’ve already crossed the sanity boundary long ago.]
I am sick to my stomach and I feel like I am going to have a heart attack.
[And I’m suffering from suffocation, smirkymonkey, due to laughing so hard while reading your posts.]
I haven't been able to sleep since...shit, Nov 1st around 8am CST. I can't find anything to burn off the rage...
[Have you thought of auditioning for the DUmmie FUnnies Dummie of the Year award to burn off that rage?]
I started smoking again, I can't bear the thought of going to work tomorrow, and I really don't have much hope at the moment. I can't eat, I've cocooned myself in my bed all day and have avoided every phone call. Oh - and I broke up with my boyfriend. You are not alone.
[Why do I get the feeling that your ex-boyfriend is celebrating the breakup, PittLib?]
It feels an awful lot like what I imagine Berlin in 1938 was like.
[I hate to be the bearer of bad news, wysi , but it will soon be feeling like Berlin in 1945.]
I'm so venomous right now, I swear I'm growing fangs.
[The good news is that you can now join a James Carville lookalike contest.]
Can't sleep and feeling at first, depressed, and now, anger.
[Give it just 10 minutes and the soothing feelings of blind rage will kick in.]
I don't know where to turn I told my friend to take pictures of the trees and all the open areas of beauty around us now because it won't be their for long.
[Certainly not after the evil Bush pours arsenic into the soil there.]
I think just the way the election went was so devastating. We were all pumped up at the thought of Kerry winning. The numbers were all there. The Dems had outdone themselves on campaigning, putting their blood, sweat and tears for electing John Kerry. The exit polls seemed to reinforce that. We were getting the banquet ready. I was going to get champagne. And then - this. It's just too heartbreaking, too unforeseen.
[The DUmmie Coyote gloating over the Acme Co. Exit Polls only to be foiled yet again by reality’s Roadrunner. BEEP! BEEP! It’s an old story.]
I really do like to maintain a degree of control and I just lost it election day. I felt great in the morning and then slowly over the course of the day my anxiety level kept rising and rising, then at the victory party I knew something was up. The crowd was very subdued. I feel like I have put my heart and soul in this effort for months and this does feel like a huge sucker punch.
[Or like Charlie Brown when Lucy pulled the Exit Poll Football away from him YET AGAIN.]
It could be worse, We could all be in the Sudan queueing up for a cup dirty water and a handful of rice for our starving kids. You will all live to fight another day, most of those Sudanese wont.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL! This is MUCH MUCH worse than lining up in Sudan for a cup of dirty water!]
I am about to have a hell of a bad time at school this morning. I'm a poli sci student and notoriously outspoken, liberal Kerry supporter. In fact, I was on local television a couple weeks ago for a special on electoral college politics and I made no secret of my affiliation. I have a feeling that the college repubs in my American Presidency class are looking forward to this afternoon.
[They will probably looking forward to laughing at your Exit Poll victory gloating.]
Hold your head high. You are the smart one, they are the dummies.
[Thus spaketh Dummie Tashi.]
If it weren't for my son...I would probably be on suicide watch. Or at the very least, I would be too depressed to leave the house. My baby boy has made all the difference in the world. His smile really changes everything, and gives me the strength to stay in the fight, and even to stay optimistic.
[You would be going right back on suicide watch if you found out your baby boy is going to grow up to become and EVIL Republican.]
that I I start crying in the middle of the day while at work. I start crying on the ferry on my way home from work. I can barely eat. I'm hardly sleeping. On Wednesday morning I realized don't believe in God anymore.
[Then try believing in Gaia.]
i'm as angry, and depressed, as i have ever been in my life. i will hate christians, *all* christians, and all republicans, till my dying day.
[Angry and depressed…. Well, at least you’re not bitter.]
Call me weak, I don't much care. All I know is that I truly believed that this nightmare would end on Wednesday and the rebuilding begin. But the outright vicious gloating in the halls was wearing me down to the point of paralysis.
[Pardon me while I gloat over your election-induced immobility.]
My mind is doing strange things, and I have never been so despondent in my life.
[Has your mind done that strange thing called “thinking” yet?]
I had been dealing with insomnia before the elections and had actually gone on both Valium and Wellbutrin. I have been able to quit smoking, and I am actually able to sleep for a part of the night now. I will probably be off the Valium soon. I have no idea what I'll take after that stops being effective, however.
[Try cyanide.]
I am having a horrible time and many of the Dems are making it worse. I have a local Dem who tells me I have to learn to "reach out to the moderate reugs because our state is red, " and we must be more "conservative "to win and then I read Clinton'd piece of garbage about not whining and supporting Shrub. I was really pissed that he says we have to fix our "image" and says nothing about voter fraud. My house is a mess. I can't sleep and I feel my own party is trying to force me to accept the unacceptable. I will not accept the Bush voters and I will not stop hating them. They are evil and I am creeped out by the Dems that want us to pander to them.
[If you can’t accept the unacceptable then try enduring the unendurable. It’s easy….and FUN!]
You're kidding, right?
I am such a mess. Physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.
I feel that all my hopes for the future have been shattered. Evil, hate and greed are rewarded. Wrong is Right. Fascism will prevail.
I am sick to my stomach and I feel like I am going to have a heart attack.

I think these people need to have some conversations with people who actually lived in totalitarian societies, such as the Soviet Union and countries dominated by it, or in Nazi Germany, or Pol Pot's Cambodia. They would be told they are a bunch of sniveling, self-absorbed, spoiled brats...and that would be by those who were trying to be nice to them. I'm glad that will never happen though. We wouldn't have so much fun laughing at them anymore...Bwahahahaha.
no kidding.....try this one, just cleared the DU..."Sign the Petition to make Howard Dean DNC Chair"
What a cute test! I liked my result: "You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness." and that made me a "Republican".
I'm going to send this along to my kid, it was really fun to take, and I think they posed good questions. I had to actually ponder a bit on a few answers, and I was pleased with how it classified me. I think it's accurate, if you're honest taking it.
And they put my "dicatator for one second" quote up. LOL, I decreed "No Littering". Cripes, I hate littering, I always have.
Now, where did I put my celebratory wine glass...?
Oh please let this happen. That'll move his party firmly to the center and help them triangulate a la Clinton.
Just when I think you stuff can't get any better it does.
Oh how I wish I had stock on Prozac. Now is the time to buy, buy, buy.
These people are not reacting normally to an election.
THESE DIMS......I was talking about. They have the potential to be very dangerous...the sick f***s.
Yeah, I'm surprised they've made it this long. . . . These last four years, I mean. . . . Wai-ai-t a minute! If the trees and beauty and stuff have survived these past four years, maybe . . . just maybe . . . maybe they'll make it--dare I say it?--the next four years!
What a DUFUs.
pity party ping
"[If you can’t accept the unacceptable then try enduring the unendurable."
Really. One would think these fragile hothouse mutant houseplants had been NUKED. Actually it's only the cold unforgiving light of reality!
Dear god I love it so.(apologies to Patton)
"These people deluded themselves into believing Kerry was really going to win."
The way I see it, they still believe the Mainstream media, and also whatever little shills are out there on the left. Although the polls were showing W with a steady, albeit small, lead through the final week, 10 days.
I feel for them, those bogus exit polls did them more harm than they did us. The roller coaster is the hardest thing to take, no matter what the situation.
And GOD BLESS MARK LEVIN, for keeping me sane on those.
Add me to your list...
I told my friend to take pictures of the trees and all the open areas of beauty around us now because it won't be their for long.
Because of this eeevvilll Bush mandate, I spent the weekend cutting down several 80 year old oak trees on my neighbor's property. But honestly, it wasn't enough for me. I dumped three 55 gallon drums of benzene into a cute little creek in my town. That felt good, but after work tomorrow, I'm going to hunt some bald eagles. This is great!
