Reaction by the losing side in last week's presidential election would be startling if it weren't predictable. . .

Other disparaging labels, including "stupid" and "moron" were hurled at Bush voters by various lefties. If so many people -- more than 59 million -- who voted for President Bush are stupid, what does this say about our costly and monopolistic public school system? . .

Some commentators suggest Mr. Kerry lost because he The left's last gasp to salvage something from the election is the suggestion that, having prevailed, the president should now "reach out" to opponents and "heal the rift." Does the left reach out to the right when liberals win elections? No, they exercise the power they've been given, and Republicans should do the same. If the left has hurt feelings, let them seek counseling from Dr. Phil. . .

This needs to be said again and again - the left seems to believe that when their candidate wins, we should pursue the liberal agenda. They also believe that when their candidate doesn't win, we should pursue the liberal agenda - and they have the nerve to state over and over again that conservatives don't get it. Let's spell it out for them - their side lost and this is our turn!

I was called a lot of nasty names last week, but then it's my own damn fault for listening to NPR.

[Noachian]

Forget that "reaching out" BS.

Run the Liberals into the ground while we can, and bring some sanity back to American society.

[WayneM]

Actually, it is more than 60 million.

Being called names makes me feel good, as then I know they are losing.

First Annual "We're Sorry" Potluck.

Al Beril - Liberal Times, Greenwich Village
The first of what just may be many “We’re Sorry” potluck dinners hosted for everyone that the United States has offended or harmed in any way was held this past weekend in the St. Marks Place Community Hall. Organized by Luke Hamilton, the idea was to bring together all those who voted for Kerry to offer “dishes of apologies” to disenfranchised immigrants, foreign students, or people of the world in general.

“We wanted to do more than just feel sorry, we want to act on it and truly be sorry” explained Hamilton as he passed out organic falafel to a group of Iranian students. “If half of this country is bent on keeping that little monkey-weasel in office then the least we could do is show the world that not all of us are residents of, or treat people like they do in Jesusland.”

To show their flair for the global taste-test, volunteers offered a variety of dishes, many with descriptive tags. Among them were “Bush won now I falafel”, “Nu-cu-lar Noodles”, “Baba-Ganoush, I hate Bush”, “Bush Lied, and-I-don’t-know-what-this-is-but-it’s-Deep Fried”, and the ever popular “Imitation Fish & Chimps” (textured soy-protein patties in the shape of Bush with French fries).

One of the volunteers, Irma Bystrak offered her take on the dinner: “Bush has killed these people’s babies. We have to do this to show them not all of us are oil-grabbing empire-building hate-mongers. I believe unless we do more things like this, most of us won’t even be around to vote in ’08. He’s creating terrorists faster than we can cover up for him with events like these.”

We asked one of the visitors who refused to be identified, if he thought that an annual event like this would sway the world’s opinions of America. “There is no getting around the fact that all Americans are Zionist pigs. We will eat your food if you serve it, then kill you. If the food is good, we will digest first.”

Hamilton took a break from serving to sip some herbal concoction and give this final thought: “I am really proud that we have taken being sorry to a whole new level. Some people just use web sites, but we show how sorry we are by serving this sorry food. It’s here for everyone, and if we get our way, maybe by 2008, the other half of America will be sorry too”.

Reply to the party of Michael Moore....

60 million hicks can't be all wrong ;-)

[dukeman]

I've been lurking around DU and other leftist websites for the past week to gauge the depth of their despair,etc. I've frequently seen lengthy tirades (far too vile to post here) against "Repugs" and "fundies" which end with the rhetorical questions, "Why is the right so hate-filled? Why aren't they tolerant like we are?" The left has a huge blind spot to the irony of their own words and actions. They really have no clue....

[Batrachian]

"the left seems to believe that when their candidate wins, we should pursue the liberal agenda. They also believe that when their candidate doesn't win, we should pursue the liberal agenda"

They can say that. Republicans shouldn't go a long with it. I have yet to hear what Democrats will do to reach out and help with the healing. Trashing the president, demanding secession, and calling conservatives ignorant religious fanatics might heal their wounded pride, but it doesn't do much else, except piss us off.

[Bigh4u2]

One thing they are absolute right about.

They are a SORRY bunch!

We will eat your food if you serve it, then kill you. If the food is good, we will digest first.”

And the left STILL doesn't get it!

This guy is telling them "Go ahead and feed us, we need the strength to slaughter you".

What a bunch of blind, crybaby MORONS!

[squarebarb]

I think the piece was satire. It just had to be satire....?

[QuiMundus]

Yes... satire... Al Beril = Liberal - However all the quotes were based on actual things written on the SorryEverybody.com website.

[Bigh4u2]

I wouldn't bet on it.

Especially considering all the other things the nutty left is doing.

it's my own damn fault for listening to NPR

Go, and sin no more. (:-)
