I find it really funny to see the losers on there crying. I have no problem with someone being upset that their guy lost. I do have a problem with the left that thinks that Europe is more moral than us and that we owe them an apology for our election.
Being a sore losers doesn't help anything. I know that the Republicans would have gone into a tailspin but I don't think they would have put anything close to this.
When will the far left of the democratic party learn that the world doesn't need to ok us on everything we do?

Wow. It''s like the post was good and then you just turned around and made it as polarizing as possible. Nice work.
Certis beat me to it. - Elysium
I don''t htink that was polarizing. I made a specific reference to the far left of the party, not the left wing, but the far left wing. Unless you''re going to argue that people on the far left or far right hold views that are inherently polarizing.

I''d have to disagree with you to even go that far.

Yeah, I thought the polarization matter was settled by this first sentence. I think this is poor form, and I''m a Republican (though not for long if this kind of crowing and purposeful avoidance of bipartisan efforts continues).

I''m sorry. If you feel so depressed that you have to say sorry to the world that your guy didn''t win, you''re being a sore loser. They are losers that need to get out more. If Kerry won, the country wouldn''t have gone that different of a direction than it is now.

Wait, Bush got 51%, Kerry got 48%. So, who did that other 1% vote for?
Not Bush right? So I think that ""Sorry from 49% of us"" makes sense.
Hehe, where on earth would you get a statement like that?
Oh...wait...
Keep on seeing the ""sore losers crying."" I found some of the pictures - not like I took a look at all of them - funny and creative. The panda photo rocks.
Whats the big deal? Should they automatically put Bush on their buddy lists as soon as he won the election?
People have sore feeling about their candidate losing, at least they dont grab machine guns, instead channeling their feeling into a website.
btw - whats the meaning of ""boned""? There was that photo of ""two cats from Arizona"", one asking another: ""Are we boned?"" ""Yeah, we`re boned."" It seemed so funny to me even though i dont really understood the humor (if there`s any
)

Certis: It is not that polarizing.. just misguided.
Ulari: When the far right learns that Jesus does not have to OK everything we do as well, and realizing that the Bible is not the only text that is moral and right in the world.

I agree. I said that already.

The only thing that site is missing are comments by Cliff Yablonski.

Yes, you did my apologies.
I agree that we have to ignore Soros and that leftist looney from MIT (I forget his name right now) who blame the US for all that is wrong in the world, but we also have to take responsibility for our own particularly bad actions in the past.
But the problem right now is that now that Mr. Ashcroft is gone Mr. Bush is again going to have to appease the religious right with something.. either an appointment to the Supreme Court, some kind of gay marriage ban amendment or classification of marriage, something obviously a gift to them for their turnout for the election. This unfortunately will polarize the left even more against Bush.

I''d do the gay marriage ban amdmt all day and take the PR hit for it. There''s no way it will pass, and it throws a bone to the holy rollers. Everybody wins, except that it causes a greater rift between segments of our society. Oh wait, I guess that means we lose. Damn.
Still, from a strategic standpoint, I think it would make sense.

I''m pretty secular and was not a fan of Ashcroft. I am hoping that Bush says ""Screw you right wing fanatics"" and comes to the middle on social issues.

And alienate the block of votors that put him over the edge in the election? I don''t think that will happen...

LOL
Thats great stuff Jason!
I saw the website a few days ago, its really just a waste of space and bad form. I may agree or disagree with the elected official, but I never apologize for my fellow voters to outside groups, they made their choice, I made mine and I respect the system enough not to make excuses for it.
Maybe voting (assumption here), getting out the vote or working harder to change minds would serve them better as a grassroots concept than sitting around bemoaning their loss. A loss is only a setback if you sit there and complain. These folks victimized themselves as losers where as some democrats attempt to move forward.
So much energy and bandwidth wasted, I have to agree with Ulairi here, these people offered us a textbook definition of losers. Have some dignity and grace in this please.

Why does it have to be the right wing fanatics that put him over the edge? Wouldn''t they be the base? Why isn''t it the neo-cons? Or the Security Moms? Or the NASCAR Dads? Or Nader voters? Or <fill-in-your-favorite-niche-voter-here>?

Because the left needs to feel that they are morally superior to the people that voted for Bush. Bush recieved 9 million more votes this time and the best estimates of the christians that stayed home last time is 4 million.

Jeebas. What is the allotted time until the bandying about the election is over? Is it 3 weeks? 45 days?
How long until the dem are ''done soul searching''?
How long until we move past this and deal with the world as we know it and stop worrying about what if''s or next time''s?

It took the Republicans eight years to stop crying about Clinton, and some of them still do it. I think it will take the Democrats at least eight years to get over Bush.

There''s really not much more for Democrats to do right now. You''ve got the power. Go ahead and use it.
"All that time you waste dating and having sex could be better spent scouring the web for new game developer press releases." - Quintin_Stone
I''m sorry to say I can answer all three.
1. There is no allotted time, as we can see from the determined searching for a scapegoat voter block. This phase will end when that group is pinned, then the second phases begins, that is to discredit, question and marginalize those in the selected group.
2. It will not be ""moved past"" because to do so would accept that ""world as we know it"". To accept the situation without some random event, vote count or group to blame means the problem is internal or with your candidate. Just like the election of 2000, some folks toned down the ""Bush stole the election"" drivel, but only enough to the extent to keep it simmering as a rational to be hinted at or used as innuendo (remember ""Your vote will count"" quotes this year?) Part of the disappointment in this election is that a toll was not exacted to make the result of 2000 ""fair"".
3. How long until the democrats are done ""soul searching""?
Simple, they already are. The fact many are looking to outside parties to casually attribute Bush''s win to then making snickers and jibes about the group shows to some in the leadership and the circle of pundits that introspect was secondary to wreathing someone with blame. I''ve seen few ""Why did we loose?"" but plenty of ""Why does America hates democrats""
I thought the margin Bush won by would create a desire to say ""Hey, we lost too many voters and we need to fix this because we are doing something wrong"" Votes in these numbers don''t lie, some can feel they got cheated by ""right wing religious types"" or people with a weak minds all they like, it still doesn''t change the fact they didn''t run as good of a campaign, their candidate made some mistakes or their message had certain aspects that were found unappealing or failed to connect with certain voters. I''m not claiming to know which or what combination of these variables it was, but the evidence is more important to the party and the system than blaming voters which in the end, always backfires

Here''s an interesting add on cnn this morning on the article about Michael ""Slimeball"" Moore doing F 9/11 1/2
Kind of says it all from the ''far left'' - eh? Basically, I read...51% of America is ignorant because they don''t agree with him...
Talk about ignorant...again...i cannot emphasize enough... I have a triad of evil that I despise with every fiber of my being - 1) Jane Fonda 2) Osama Bin Laden 3) Mikey Moore

I did look at the site...sorry...
a) is that Mex on page 4? lol
b) What a group of (hope it ain''t mex) LOSERS on that site...I mean...be proud of who you voted for...but America is a great country, a great Democracy...and who the hell thinks we need to apologize to the world for having a successful open election with over 110 million voters...
sorry...but I feel sorry for that pathetic bunch on that site!
(NOTE...this is NOT Kerry bashing, or bashing of those that voted for Kerry - I respect each and every one of them for exercising their freedom of choice to vote as they see fit...this is bashing of the idiots on that site apologizing to the world for our voting system/country/population that doesn''t agree with their exercising freedome of choice...sigh)
