Ed Morrissey: Calm Down and Play Nice, ODS sufferers

Really, people. Don’t act like those odious Democrats did. Describing Obama’s attempts to move the country far to the left should be undertaken in the measured and refined tones of a Bill Buckley fart. Because Republicans, why, they have more class.

– Oh. And a few million less presidential votes, fewer House and Senate seats, and, soon, a diminished role in the judiciary.

But still: they have more class!

So, like, GO TEAM!

**** update: for the strangely gleeful.

update 2: Rather than develop an entire new post dedicated to answering Patterico, I’ll just point you here, here, and here.

update 3: Despite my having answered him several times — and providing links to those answers — Patterico continues to insist I haven’t answered him. So I answered him again.

Success for the marxist messiah is the destruction of everything this country once stood for. To wish him well is to doom our children to chains forged by our own hands. So I echo your BARF and pray unending confusion to him and his followers.

BUMPING!!!!

[GOP_Thug_Mom]

I'm riding on your rant! :)

[lmr]

Well said. It is now my manifesto!

[KJC1]

Whoo, that was good to read. Even though you (and not me) wrote it, I felt a “cathartic release” LOL. That rocked!

Gonna re-read it when I’m home in a few hours and can savor it over an ice-cold brewski.

[Zeppo]

Bravo! I copied it and emailed it to myself so that I can savor it again and again... I’m not going to become obsessed, but I am going to have fun - a lot of fun - at the expense of those Demo/Commie fools and traitors and haters...

[JennysCool]

Excellently done!

[mkjessup]

Morrisey is hoping the lurking Fairness Doctrine Crocodile will eat him last.

I say go eff yourself Ed, look up Larry Sinclair for tips on how to suck up to Comrade 0bama.

You two can learn from each other.

[Txsleuth]

BRAVO, roses of sharon!

I couldn’t have said it better myself.

[RichInOC]

You know, it is possible to take issue with The One’s policies and mock his pretensions without becoming pompous, self-righteous, frothing lunatics like Andrew Sullivan or Keith Olbermann.

[denydenydeny]

I have never felt the mounting fury that they have provoked in me over the last 8 years. This goes deep and hot and I will not yield on this one.

Jonah Goldberg wrote on NRO that the Democrats have spent the last eight years blackmailing the country: give us power or we will destroy America. We’ll stab the troops in the back, leak classified intelligence, block George Bush at every turn, loudly protest and bring things to a halt, do our best to drive the economy into the ground and make this country a smoldering ruin until you let us win. And now they want to kiss and make up? #### them. And their teleprompter Jesus.

I will laugh at every stumble he makes, applaud his mistakes and cheer his enemies. I want him to spend the next four years cowering in a corner while our economy crashes and burns and our enemies kick his bony ass. I want him to leave office a broken man. And I want every disloyal asshole who voted for him to share his pain.

Can I just say, "me too"?

[Wolfhound777]

That post about sums it up :-)

[DakotaRed]

I hope Hunter keeps his name before the public during the next 4 years and keeps it loud. Hopefully, people will hear of him this time if he decides to try again and we won’t be hearing others say what a great candidate he is, but they can’t support him because others aren’t.

[Stentor]

Can I use your post as my tagline? (;>)

[Enchante]

Rep. Brouns: "It may sound a bit crazy and off base...."

Sigh...... Why do so many on our side lack a basic acquaintance with simple rules of political rhetoric?

I agree with what Rep. Broun is saying about the Obamessiah, but if you start your sentence with "it may sound a bit crazy and off base" ..... good heavens, you're already inviting the Mediascum and the public to dismiss you (which they so badly want to do anyway).

That's like saying "I may be a raving loon but believe me anyway" -- the Demagogues just about always know better than to engage in such self-sabotage, even when they are raving loons.

I feel better after reading this post than I have since the socialist Obama and his cohorts captured the White House. I am fully on board with those who plan to give back to the opposition parties in kind what they have hurled at President Bush and his administration for going on eight years. I am at present at a loss as to exactly what I can do to tarnish, ruin, or destroy the democrats and the socialist donkey, Obama, that they have ridden into the White House. I am sure that opportunities are out there waiting to be unleashed. No more turning the other cheek. I am done with nice or tolerance as concerns these socialists that have finally taken over the US government.

[Blind Eye Jones]

Morrissey changes his tune.
