Be gracious winners today-Vanity
11-09-10

After the fall of Richmond in 1865, Abraham Lincoln went to the Confederate White House in Richmond as part of a tour of the city. A large crowd of civilians gather to see Lincoln.

Weitzel asked the President for advice on how he should treat the citizens of the captured city. Lincoln replied that he did not want to give orders on that topic but "If I were in your place, I'd let 'em up easy, let 'em up easy."

Gracious...any "gracious" is seen as a sign of weakness....and an opportunity to re-supply and re-position the troops.

Think of the primaries as a skirmish....that flushed out the traitors of the GOPe and exposed the collusion of the MSM with the Dims

Yesterday's event was the first major battle with the opposing forces....mostly on enemy territory...but a victory non the less.

The Dims, lobbyists, special interests, LaRaza, islamics and communists will not go quietly into the night.

Expect resistance to Trump's first 100 day campaign.

The GOP lost.
Conservatives won.
That is important to note.

I will be gracious but I will remind people that running around calling everyone a racist for almost a decade is not really a good political tactic, because you know they will not stop doing that.

Does wearing a huge, cheesy triumphant victory grin count as being gracious? Cause that is what I'm doing today.

Thank you God for sparing us from four years of that harpy's grating voice, and her all consuming arrogance and vileness. Thank you Lord, for giving America a second chance.

No. We need to press the advantage to dismantle their illegal fraud machine which has gone on for DECADES.

Great advice and we need to go a step further. We elected Reagan and he did great things but look how far we fell in a short time!

We must roll up our sleeves and get involved in our communities. Join the school board, PTA, Scouts, whatever you can do to influence people! We need to CRUSH LEFTISM once and for all! We need to find a way to dismantle their machine in every media outlet, every college, every foundation. Otherwise we may be right back to where we are today in 8 or 15 years...

We need to de-program them, and show them that everything the media pounded into their heads was fabricated lies! He doesn’t make fun of disabled people, he’s not Hitler, he’s not a warmonger, he’s not a rapist etc. They will come to see it over time if we help.

I will, and a matte of fact have already thanked God for this victory. Enough said.

With all due respect, Johnnie, do you really think the Dems would be gracious winners?

Waiting for the Dem mantra about "compromise". When they lose, it's we must compromise. When they win, it's FU.

For the first time in 8 years I woke up and did not feel oppressed and depressed. My fighter pilot son called me at 0200 this morning and he was ebullient. The prospect of being able to do his job without diversity officers and non mission junk just had him nearly giddy. His normal composure is stern as a judge.

I wrote on my car this morning in white shoe polish: “Take that, Bitch!”

If you are not defeating your enemy decisively and pounding them into the ground you need to reevaluate your tactics. We did not win decisively. We squeaked by in spite of herculean efforts. I have no care, concern or mercy for my enemies that have done all they could to do me and mine serious harm.

Today, I’m celebrating. We have a lot of work ahead of us. We are in a real mess.

Screw that! This is war!

We are not going to undo the many years of liberal crap by being milquetoasts!

This isn’t over. They will fight tooth and nail to stop us.

The eGOP will stonewall in Congress.

The press will lambast Trump at his every turn.

The liberals in society will be violent, mean, and nasty.

No, today is NOT the day for being gracious winners ... In a few days maybe... probably.

But not today.

Today we celebrate overcoming the evil that was taking over Washington DC.

“Be gracious winners today-Vanity”

These people still want to destroy you, your families, your values and your country. I see no contrition on their part. If you forgive these leftists, they will simply see it as an opportunity to kill you later.

I carpool to work with two other people. I am the arch-conservative, one guy is a sort of RINO-ish conservative, and the woman is a lib. To her credit, she didn’t rub our faces in it when Obama won re-election in 2012. Yesterday, as we went to our separate vehicles at the Park and Ride, she told us she would not be in the Wednesday carpool because she needed to have her car serviced. I think she had a feeling that Trump was gonna win, and didn’t want to be in the car with us. If so, that was nice of her, because the remaining two of us were able to savor the victory to our heart’s content. She’ll be back in the carpool tomorrow, and I have no intention of bringing it up.

libtardism is evil. It deserves to be treated with condemnation and punishment

“OMG, Hate Won” is the cry.

And, "How do I explain to my kids that Trump won?"
