Obama wins! And Journolisters rejoice
Daily Caller ^ | 07/21/2010 | Jonathan Strong

Posted on 07/21/2010 11:12:32 AM PDT by Publius804

Nov. 3:

DAVID ROBERTS, GRIST: It’s all I can do not to start bawling.

LUKE MITCHELL, HARPER’S: I’m picturing something like VJ Day in Times Square. Seriously!

JOHN BLEVINS, SOUTH TEXAS COLLEGE OF LAW: It’s all I can do to hold it together.

Nov. 4:

MOIRA WHELAN, NATIONAL SECURITY NETWORK: I’m looking across the street at my polling place, and the line is wrapped around the block. I nearly burst into tears when I saw it. I’m feeling like today is closing the door on a terrible era, and opening another. I’m glad you started this thread because I was feeling kind of like I was the only one who is deeply emotional today.

HENRY FARRELL, GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY: I had to close my office door yesterday because I was watching YouTube videos of elderly African Americans saying what this meant to them and tearing up.

JOSH BEARMAN, LA WEEKLY: 11 months ago I burst into tears by myself on a plane while watching Hardball when my mind wandered to the image of President Obama being sworn in. I’ve been fighting it ever since.

EZRA KLEIN, AMERICAN PROSPECT: OHIO!

ALEC MCGILLIS, WASHINGTON POST: If you need further proof that VA is looking to go blue, check out what’s going on in VA-5 in deepest Southside Virginia, where Tom Perriello, my college roommate and a very good guy, is now up .06 percentage points — 2,000 votes — against Virgil Goode with 88 percent reporting.

GREG ANRIG, THE CENTURY FOUNDATION: This is really happening.

ADELE STAN, THE MEDIA CONSORTIUM: At last I can breathe.

The expression “circle jerk” springs to mind for some reason.

I think the country made the greatest mistake in hiring college graduates to be news reporters. College, especially the NE colleges, is the greatest indoctrinator of bigotry known to man. Read these posts and realize they are of one mind - the wanker faculty lounge mind.

As I recall, on the evening of Nov 8, 2008, I was 2/3rds the way through a bottle of scotch, cleaning my gun lovingly, mumbling... come and get me....

AGREED! (The second worst mistake was banning liquor and tobacco from newsrooms;)

Didn’t yesterday’s JournoList batch include Ackerman wanting to throw someone else through a window? I hope his employer has good insurance...as long as it’s still available, because Ackerman seems eager to commit murder.

The greatest thrill is going to be waking up on Nov 3rd and seeing that the process of tossing these bozos out on their dead arses has begun. We finish the job in January 2013. Bet on it.

JV STALIN, GENERAL SECRETARY, CPSU: “I felt myself tearing up. It was like 1917 all over again.”

MAO TSE TUNG, GREAT HELMSMAN: “Let a thousand flowers bloom!”

ADOLF HITLER, CHANCELLOR, GREATER GERMAN REICH: “I felt like I was back with my old party comrades at the beerhall.”

BENITO MUSSOLINI, DUCE, NUOVA ITALIA: “Finally, an American President who looks like me!”

And so on

"I burst into tears by myself on a plane while watching Hardball..."

Fascist statist tyrant weeps tears of joy watching Chrissy Matthews and his tingling leg. What a tool.

When the economy is completely destroyed, political dissent is outlawed and America is a mere backwater province of the global regime, this a-hole will finally be able to rest satisfied.
