Facebook election meltdowns and tasty, salty tears |OT|

I'd save these comments for later on down the road when people start treating President Obama like they do President Clinton now. Save these and dig them up like a time capsule later.

Seriously... I remember the hate Clinton got and it amazes me how that tune has changed. It's like they don't remember the venom and calls for impeachment. I don't want these people forgetting what they said last night/today as well.

I'm amazed how you guys are talking about your "uneducated" brothers, fathers and god knows what. Maybe you should try to explain the words communism, marxism and whatever they are throwing around, instead of posting here.

I've tried and this is what I got

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.

You think we haven't tried? That time of headache and frustration has come and passed. Now is the time for drinking the provided tears that those uneducated many are shedding of their own free will.

It's a beautiful thing.
 
The racial meltdowns are the best. Pure, unfiltered, and not hidden behind the conspiracy Muslim/socialist/terrorist/etc. BS.

Thats what I love seeing. Sad though, these people are so afraid of nothing.
It's amazing. The filters have come off and they are saying what they really want to say. After coming up with euphemisms and workarounds, they finally say what is actually on their horrid minds. It's beautiful.

I'm sure most of them have tried.

Brian Williams was never a smart guy but always passes himself off as such. People will learn the truth! @NBCNightlyNews

This may be a dumb question... but why are these people only concerned about "my tax money" going to security nets/healthcare etc. but seemingly don't seem to give a fuck about two extremely costly wars and a wildly inflated defense budget?

Because if we don't fight everyone everywhere at all times, they will come here and take us over, because everyone in the world is jealous and/or hates our way of life and that is worth any price. Yes, there are many republicans that literally believe what i just wrote to be fact.

I notice you didn't mention mothers and sisters. Obama won on the strength of women and the Republican views towards women are not flattering. Perhaps they should take the next four years to analyze how to change that.

I won't post the screencap because i'm in class and don't feel like going through the hassle but here is the best status on my news feed from last night.

"Hope all you dumbass retards are satisfied. The next four years will bring nothing but a further uncontrollable debt and crushing blows to the middle class. Since all you geniuses elected this disaster again, at the end of this next four years I expect NO LESS THAN - 100% drop In unwanted pregnancies and rapes, all poor people to be rich and all rich to be poor, women to be "fair," no war, no sick people ever in the whole country, and free college for everyone including illegals. RIP America, 1776-2008/12"

Are there any first world countries with the same political stance as those Americans who want to move to Canada / Australia?

I expect them to come up with "Hmm, we lost the women vote. Clearly the problem is that all the women are stupid and shouldn't be allowed to vote anymore".
 
This was a particularly good one on my FB feed this morning:

You get the liberal media to start telling the truth about him. Then you get your friends to watch t.v. when Brian Williams says he allows people to die. Then you break the news to your kids that they have to work in the rice patties instead of going to school.

If I had a middle class income I probably wouldn't be complaining

We (me and my mom) are currently living on 1/10th of what is consider middles class.
If we can somehow make it through with just that much(and we have been for many years)

Also we live in florida and Now my mom has to spend $100 in gas a week.

The likes of Fox News always whining about "liberal bias" or whatever never fails to make me laugh, given they're the as biased, childish and dishonest a news program as you can find on US TV.

You'd think conservatives who want to flee Obama's America would tweak to the fact that the land they describe simply does not exist.

Anyways, as I'm sure others have mentioned, they are about to get another rude awakening when they read the requirements for emigrating to some of these other countries. And of course the tax rates and horrible social policies we've already enacted.

I bet a few US conservatives might end up in Alberta though; that's sort of Canada's Texas.

Aren't the GOP pushing for harsh immigration laws? So...why are so many salty Republicans talking about emigrating to other countries like they can stroll into any country they like?

I'm sure most of them have tried.
Then try harder.

My two cents as an European: The USA politcal system is pretty much fucked right now. Mostly because of only 2 major partiers you can choose from.
But, it's not going to get better by this FB shit or this thread. Wether you are right or wrong.

That's exactly what I mean. What was iraq for? To bring them democracy ... right?
But you are stopping on your own doorsteps just because you have "won"?

I notice you didn't mention mothers and sisters. Obama won on the strength of women and the Republican views towards women are not flattering. Perhaps they should take the next four years to analyze how to change that.
Or, more likely, I read the last two pages and one person talked about his uneducated brother and another about his stupid father. ;)

Because it's hopeless, and they won't listen.

That is clearly the goal of this thread.

My dad posted a picture of gloating Big Bird on FB, and he got a response from one of his friends about how now she's going to lose social security and medicare but at least she'll be able to watch Sesame Street.

Normally I would have refrained but I had to call her out for somehow trying to characterize the Republicans as the champions of social entitlement programs. I mean there's a line of rationality and she was way over it.

You are in the wrong thread if you think anyone who has the kind of radical conservative that is being posted about here in their family hasn't experienced a lot of crap from challenging or debating those beliefs. Kinda rude to say "try harder". You don't know what they've been through. I would wager for every single funny gif or image of someone breaking down and being ridiculous at best or extremely racist at worst, there are tons more undocumented moments of awkward family dinners, extremely embarrassing meet-the-family spousal moments and shameful memories of ignorance in their family that people aren't posting about.

Because this thread is to take a moment and laugh at the ridiculousness of all the breakdowns after a very trying election cycle.

From family (sigh) I wonder if Jesus would still be coming if Romney got elected? Pure stupidity.

I have no idea what the first post means.


Is it "Because obama was elected again, the world will end, and jesus will save us" or something like that?

I need a translation, please.

The salty tears are definitely more delicious than 4 years ago. The right had 4 years to demonize the president. Then you had all these right wing pundits/pollsters saying Romney was going to win. All that adds up. I hate to say this but twitter and fb gave stupid people a vehicle to spread their stupidity. Thankfully my fb was not filled with idiotic posts.

I was called delusional by a friend's mormon sister after Obama won because apparently, I voted for someone who screwed over the military so many times...

I remember in the other thread some moron posted about moving to Australia because our "president" is Christian and stands up for what he believes in.

First of all our Prime Minister is a female atheist who lives with her hairdresser boyfriend of over 20 years and has no children. You wish some people would do some damn research once in a while.

Yeah, basically they think that Obama is a signal of "the end of times". You know kind of like every generation since the birth of Jesus has claimed.
