According to Bill O'Reilly, the reason Barack Obama won is that there are too many moochers out there who are ignorant of the potential danger of a socialist agenda.
In other words, if you looked at the record of Mitt Romney, and decided that you didn't like his tax policies, his foreign policies, or his GOP rape-talking bedfellows, you are either lazy, stupid, or you've been duped by the "mainstream media".
I find the contortions that Bill O'Reilly goes through fascinating.
On one hand, he would have you believe his show is widely viewed and highly influential....sounds awfully mainstream to me.
On the other hand, he wants you to believe that, despite the influence he claims to wield, a majority of the public chose to ignore his advice, or were simply not interested in hearing it in the first place, preferring the "Mainstream Media" that he tries so hard to emulate while claiming he's not.
Republicans have found a reason they lost the election, and it's you, America, you're just not America enough for Republicans anymore.
Reminds me of the old bumpersticker "America, love it or leave it".
It seems that's been amended to "America, if things don't go our way, we hate it".
Try to be kind to our elephant friends.
Take it easy on them, they've just had their world-view shattered.
Here is a link to a conversation on facebook, where I was called ignorant, lazy, a dope, and....heaven forbid....a CANADIAN.
UPDATE:
dropped some links on the conversation, and it was deleted shortly after, but not before the links she provided were dismissed as not proofy enough.
Remember boys and girls, facts are not welcome at a Pity-Party.
