2012 LIVE Official Recriminations Thread I
11/7/2012 | Sam PAine

Posted on 11/07/2012 4:28:34 AM PST by sam_paine

Post your "I Told You So" Vanities here!

DON'T Start the 50-millionth Vanity thread!

Find your allies on either side:

In this corner: "Romney RINO wasn't conservative enough to really win Purple PA and Ohio!"

In the other: "The Social Conservatives scared off too many Indiots!"

We can have the bile out here and leave the other threads to sincere discussion. Then the Admins can delete this later when we're all embarrassed of what we've said.

I don’t know. I’m sure it will come out in the coming days.

But unfortunately, I’m not surprised. Liberal candidates rarely ignite the Republican base.

Ah yes, affirmative action - the white man’s burden.

“Routinely working less hours, with less background/knowledge than males counterparts, getting artifical paychecks to fend off lawyers...”

You know the SOP quite well. Sickening, isn’t it?

Saw this elsewhere, will provide link if you want (a comment from somewhere else):


Someone needs to account for eighteen point five million voters.

That’s how many fewer voters came out last night in comparison to ’08. They say Obama won the election. I say prove it. Can they? Will anyone even attempt to explain the vastly diminished turnout given the choice and the character of the two men competing? The most consequential election of our lifetime, possibly even the most consequential in the history of this Republic?

In 2010 we saw a massive landslide victory for Republicans just after the final defeat of that party was heralded with Obama’s We Are All Socialists Now mandate. Pundits then said that the US was a Center-Right country and Obama misjudged his mandate by pushing a far Left agenda, resulting in a historic loss a the polls, the loss of the House and a large new GOP majority, several losses in the Senate including the election of Republican Scott Brown to replace Liberal Lion Ted Kennedy which the entire nation including the Leftist media acknowledged as resounding “no” on Obamacare- the signature legislation proposed by the new President with his historical mandate.

Yet last night, the very same pundits have re-christened America a demographically transformed Left Wing nation for having re-elected Obama with less votes than he earned in 2008.

At which point in the last two years did America suddenly switch on a dime from Center-Right to Far Left?

It doesn’t add up. The numbers from last night make no sense. Is anyone going to pin this down? Or will this be like the “death” of Andrew Breibart- an incident everyone knew to be foul-play, but just kept quiet about and let it go forgotten?

It is; the saddest thing is that I’ve worked with and for some brilliant women, and they would be suspect because of the “soft bigotry of lowered expectations” that is imposed on women. Affirmative action is official government acknowledgment of gender and racial inferiority - there is simply no other way to look at it...

You’re right. Of course they’re looked at as tokens. The last two elections clearly show the majority like it.

I borrowed this but it cuts to the chase:

Just in case we need a reminder that Democrats haven’t changed in 150+ years:

Republicans fought against slavery, and fought for all citizens to be treated equally.

Then the Civil War ended, and the Antebellum Amendments were added to the Constitution. Democrats then invented Jim Crow laws, to once again treat people differently by race (also see the Affirmative Action laws of today).

Even worse, with the teachers’ union’ ownership of the Dem party, it has once again become illegal to teach negroes to read & write...

Who is the silver-tongued conservative businessman or governor that would've wooed unionistas in Ohio, or Virginia federal bureaucrats?

IMO, Ronald Reagan would have lost to 0bumble in 2012.

Like we’ve discussed before...what to do with the “contraband”?

They are being phased out to make way for Hispanics (in the same manner whites are for Asians).

Me too. But, having the ability to observe and accurately process the data into use-able information so that the best path(s) can be taken is an invaluable tool, which you possess.

I find your posts to be islands of reality in an ocean of diarrhea.

Satan’s Daughter, Lisa Madigan, will probably run for Governor in 2014.

Roskam.

Though I doubt he would win in this wonderful state.

Aaron Shock is thinking about Governor in 2014.

Jim Robinson was right all along about Romney, and I feel weak for allowing myself to become a lackluster Romney supporter in due course, for I too rejected my core beliefs and compromised.

Never again, much better to be a “bitter clinger” than a person who is willing to cave in.

Jim Robinson I am sorry I did not take your anti-Romney stance more to the heart, our intuition was right all along about him.

Romney was a marshmallow, and he got toasted.

It is the media that is the entire problem....see my tagline.

Disagree...public schools are the problem...they are the ones that steep members of the media in marxism when they are young. The colleges finish the job. Public schools are public enemy #1...and we pay for it.
