Sore Losers....Something had to be done.
Judging from the comments of many Republicans and conservatives over the radio and TV programs, many are tasting sour grapes and are acting like "sore losermmen". It's time for them to get over it. And realize that the people have thrown their butts out because of the sorry job they did..or did not do, in regards to the Do-Nothing Congress. Throw some cold water on your face and go back to work. Learn your lessons and perhaps, you won't have to repeat the same class over.

1. Yeah well they were still angry after Bush won.
Hence the term "sore winners".

2. The Day The Gavel Is Handed To Pelosi
Dare I say many of us refused to accept losses and it took months to get over both the sting and come to the realization of where things are going in the next two years. While my gloating about last week is all but over, I can see the Repugnicans going into the abyss I saw far too many times following Democratic defeats.

Consider this part of a 12-step program for these losers. We're still in the denial and anger stage. Soon we'll see them fighting among themselves as the blame game kicks in and the less filling (moderates) and the tastes great (wingnuts) toss dung on each other in hopes of capturing the few morsels of political power they have in the legislative. Watch the battle between Boenner and Pence for minority leader to bring this scism into the open.

You're expecting pitiful souls who can't assume responsibility for their actions and have always gotten away with blaming othesr to change their spots? Honestly, I hope not...in fact, I hope they believe their press clippings and ratchet up their vile rhetoric...it'd be the greatest electoral gift going into '08 we could ask for.

4. If they could step back and remember how they told dems
to "get over it" in December 2000 when the vote counting was abruptedly concluded and the Supreme Court annointed their chosen to be president. At least in this case, the votes were tallied, they were properly counted, and they just didn't have the numbers (or enough machines to switch votes). I would have hoped that this election would have been a lesson in humility and perhaps return the political tenor to that of bipartisonship, independence from lobbyists and bully majority leaders, and think of the country before themselves for a change.

7. Tweety was damn near in tears the other night because many of his...
...favorite guests got their asses booted out of office. He sounded really down about it.

8. Unlike in 2004
I actually ENJOY in turning on the MSM now. Flipping thru the channels I see Fox is choosing to run segments on Brittany-KFed pre-nups (having guests like Aldred and some pre-nup expert being interviewed) rather than any Dem takeover reports. They really are getting desperate!
