Sandy and Christie Screwed Romney; May Be Time to Write-Off America

[Frodo]

When I read Politico posts in this thread and see the picture in his signature (If Politico have removed it in the future: Romney sit in a cage on the top of a car without a drive, desperate try to control the car, which have Romney Campaign written on the side). I can only come to the conclusion that Politico support of Romney has been one long joke on all of us.

You really think he went Republican just to make them look bad?  

Just how many Democrats are on this forum masquerading as Republicans? 

[DrScholl]

Romney's best chance at winning was between the first and second debate. After the second debate, his momentum from the first debate started to level off and it went flat after the third debate. By the time Hurricane Sandy rolled around, the race was already starting to solidify for Obama.

[Politico]

Do you think Obama is a communist or has communist sympathies, Politico?

I suspect that there are Godless communists within his campaign and inner circle, and there were certainly communists who funded his campaign and volunteered for him. I also suspect Obama sympathizes with some communist notions (e.g., "from each according to their ability to each according to their need"), but I do not believe he is a communist per se. I think he is a good man, a family man, who is being used by some radical elements.

Then the basis of every other liberal Democracy is Communism. You know, the ones with higher living standards, living wages and health outcomes.

You were an embarrassment in 2008, you've been an attention-seeking embarrassment all year... and while you're fully entitled to make an melodramatic and baseless fool of yourself... I think you're better off taking up macramé - no pointy objects.

This is a fine example of the type of communist brainwashing I am talking about, ladies and gentlemen.

Who got to you Polnut, and at what age? Think back to when this garbage was first driven into your brain. In your heart, you know I'm right...

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

You obviously don't know what communism is, little man.

[Politico]

The world will know communism and its supporters after audio recordings start leaking on social media.

The days of Marxists spouting their garbage under the employment of public universities, bought and paid for by taxpayers' dollars, is coming to an end. When we are through with them, there will be nothing left. Their propaganda machine is going to be crushed. These communists will be free to speak their mind from the unemployment line, or free to seek employment in Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, etc.

You know, you convinced me. Fine trolling, sir. I was taking you way too seriously instead of simply enjoying your antics, which I'm intending to do now.

The open communists and crypto-communists are out there, largely concentrated in academia. You know I am right. Do not even try to deny it for a minute.

What the hell do you think Occupy Wall Street was really about?

It's just a matter of time before a majority connects the dots, for Christ's sakes. Once that happens, there will be hell to pay.

I think it's more likely he do it to ruffle people's feathers, or just because it's entertain him.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

Rockingham who I know off, as he have a history on other forums of posting as left winger for months or even years only to go down the deep end later. But that's more likely true and rather pathetic trolling more than the performance art which I suspect Politico performs.

[Politico]

This is not performance art. Like many Americans, I am mad as hell and I am not going to take this anymore.

We'll personally destroy the communists for what they have done to America. They may yet get their wish of the destruction of America, but they will go down first.

[Mister Twister]

This is not performance art. I am dead serious. Like many Americans, I am mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore.

Nobody cares what people like you think. Accept Obama is awesome or move to Canada.

If you are serious... then you seriously need to get a grip. I repeat, you were an embarrassment in 2008 and have been ever since. Nothing you've said has been correct, nor has it been based in fact. The fact that you now are repeating the OLDEST conspiracy theories shows you've run out of original bats*** things to say yourself.

There's no evidence... none for what you're saying. So... either find some or f*** off.

Hey, you wanted Romney to be the nominee. You're the communist.

[dspNY]

Is this for real? This is perhaps the most horrifying meltdown I have ever seen on the Internet

[anvi]

Oh, it's really not a meltdown.  I was actually stupidly bored enough this evening to look at a little of Politico's posting history.  If he is entirely sincere in what he says, he converted from "Keynes" to "Friedman" sometime between 2008 and 2011, and on top of that he appears prone to incredible overreaction, both before and after his "conversion."  Well, I can't point fingers, I'm like that myself sometimes.  But, based on what I've been reading of him recently, I think the Torie "performance art" thesis is pretty convincing. 

[TJ in Oregon]

Politico,

Losing an election is horrible. I know that very well and had the same week as all the other Romney supporters who are mourning the state and perceived future of the nation, albeit for rather different reasons (and I happened to believe America is more fatally ill from my perspective than it is from yours).

But we vote in elections for the politicians that we think will improve our lives. But no matter who wins you still have to get out of bed the next morning and go through life to the best of your ability in work/personal relationships/etc. We have a habit in our political analysis to think that winning alone will cure our ills. But it matters much more what we do with our lives than who wins, or even who we vote for. We can never forget that and allow ourselves to be broken and destroyed by losing an election when the whole point of supporting the candidate we did was that we believed his victory would make life better than it is under President Obama. If President Obama wants to destroy my life, he'll have to do that himself; I won't do it for him. I think somewhere deep down you know that to be true too.

I also urge you not to write off America just yet. Yes, the future sucks and it will only get worse, I have no hope for a government or a society that will get better for the rest of my life, and on and on. In your view this is what you consider to be socialism and for me it's the destruction of morality that used to be observed in this country. I look forward to many long years of being surrounded by a hippie free-love sex culture where all politicians make ads telling people voting for them is like having sex That's how I read the "forward" slogan. For you, an increased reliance on the government is likely in store for years to come. But by writing off America, we would also be writing off all the faceless people who haven't even been born yet. They will grow up in a very different America than the one we grew up in, yes that's true. But just because they came from a background we each view as less optimal, yours with the government and mine with looser morals, doesn't mean every person born later can be written off as a lost cause. But writing off America that's what we'd be doing. Many people who come after us may turn out to be horrible, immoral from my perspective and "welfare queens" from yours. In fact it's pretty likely there will be many who could fit into both categories. But they deserve a chance to make that choice, not us.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

my story is much like Sheldon Adelson's

See, that does not inspire confidence.

We'll personally destroy the communists for what they have done to America. They may yet get their wish of the destruction of America, but they will go down first.

Aye-aye, Cap'n Ahab.

Let me just ask you this, pursuant to the Red-baiting and talk of personally destroying people. Politico, do you, in fact, believe in freedom of speech?

What did we do to deserve him?

By attacking and vilifying the moderators (like Inks) who are trying to do their jobs in keeping this forum clean of trolls like him.  We're being taught a lesson, it seems.

Your signature helps TJ's case as much as it does yours.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

TJ is a good guy, and I have a lot of respect for him as a person, but obviously not the views he expresses.

As far as I'm concerned, a more inclusive society is a stronger and more cohesive one. I understand where he comes from with these views, it's a religious fear of sex and sexuality  Which usually gets mangled in some kind of hyperbolic analysis not entirely based on reality. As far as I'm concerned, sex, whether practiced or not, is one of the few genuinely common experiences of people. Controlling it has been a long-used way of controlling the populous... I think it's wrong and gives people a bad idea about sex and its role.
