Just smile and laugh at them.

[cripplecreek]

Give them all the respect they're due. Ignore them.

[DTogo]

Don't reply. Any "loon" loonie enough to parrot that "disenfranchisement" crap from the Far Left is not deserving of your time on that subject. If they can't get over it, that's their own personal, internal issue.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Whatever...

[mikegi]

Where's the "Welcome to FR" bitmap?

[Allegra]

They're just sore losers.

What they really hate is when you just refuse to engage them. Or, as someone else has already said, laugh at 'em.

Liberals really are hilarious when they're out of power.

[mhking]

Don't worry 'bout it. Even if we had won by a landslide, they'd still be parrotting this whole "legitimacy" crap.

[EggsAckley]

I know what you mean. Our Thanksgiving dinner will be on Saturday here at my house. Probably 20 people, all liberals. I warned my sister-in-law that if the talk turns political I will simply get up and leave the room. She agrees with me that we should not talk politics, but I'm afraid they'll just do it anyway.

Fortunately, the dinner will be upstairs and I can just "take a break" downstairs. heheheh.

I don't talk to loons. Only the fringe left wing kooks believe this. Go over to DU and you will see. Just look, don't feed. These are some of the most detached from reality folks you will ever see. They are really the only ones who believe that the election was stolen. Even Jesse Jackson said it was won fair and square.

[Socratic]

Just say, "When you lose the Presidency in four years and four years after that and four years after that, you'll finally wake up to the fact that liberals are nothing but Communist losers and most Americans reject that. Your petty whining is nothing but further proof that your just a loser."

[TheCrusader]

"Any suggestions as far as how to reply to one of these loons when they make these kinds of comments?"

I'm not so sure they're "loons". I think that they believe that if they beat this "legitimacy" drum long enough it will eventually translate to an election advantage for them. Just like they beat the drum of abortion rights, homosexual rights, affirmative action, etc. until they got what they wanted.

[savedbygrace]

When they talk like this, say, "Maybe so, but there's nothing you can do about it." Then laugh a maniacal laugh and walk away.

They'll never bring it up again.

[The_Victor]

Welcome to Free Republic. Only the extreme leftists kooks are going on about a stolen election. Even the DNC has admitted the the democRATs lost. Just smile and pat the kooks on the head and tell them "Everything will be OK, your mommy still loves you."

[atomicpossum]

Just say "Don't worry about 2008. You liberals won't be allowed to vote from the concentration camps! MWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!!!"

[AlGone2001]

Maybe we could just have one of the sore losers sign up here and complain about it.

Oh... too late...

[GopherGOPer]

Interesting first post. If you're not a troll, welcome to FR.

First of all, we currently have a legitimately elected President. He was elected 4 years ago, and he was re-elected a few weeks ago. Elections are fair in America, and any "claims of suppression" by one side can easily be made with similar claims on the other side.

The President won Ohio by over 100,000 votes. That's not stealing it, its winning it fair and square. The guy with the most votes wins the state.

The President won Florida in 2000. Every recount showed that, even those happening in 2001.

We have a legitimately elected President. All our Presidents are legitimately elected.

[Coldwater Creek]

The last I heard was that George Herbert Walker and Barbara Bush were married when George Walker Bush was born. Doesn't that make him legitimate?

"Sorry, I don't take political advice from losers..."

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Any suggestions as far as how to reply to one of these loons when they make these kinds of comments?

I pull out a little notebook and ask, "How do you spell your name again? I want to make sure the Squad grabs the right person for reeducation."

No, I have no mercy. Anyone dumb enough to buy that line deserves what they get.

[wizardoz]

I've said, "Have you ever considered the possibility that there really are ... just... more of us than you right now?" Sometimes they look a little abashed and mumble something like, "Geez, I hope not," but it's apparent that such a simple answer shames them with its obvious validity.
