45160. concerned - 11/7/2012 4:39:49 PM Obviously, dozens of dead US citizens and the misery of millions for weeks is a very acceptable cost to Matthews for political victory.
Very instructive as to the Leftist mindset. 45161. concerned - 11/7/2012 4:48:22 PM Also very callous and hypocritical - from the same MSM that claimed that talking about Benghazi was exploiting the victims. 45162. robertjayb - 11/7/2012 5:35:48 PM Go Girls!
from KOS:
With the victories of Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), and Deb Fischer (R-NE), we’ve reached an historic number of women serving in the Senate. Even with the retirements of Olympia Snowe (R-ME) and Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX), at least 18 women—a record high—will serve in the Senate starting in 2013.
Every Democratic woman incumbent Senator was re-elected, and results are still out for challengers Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Shelley Berkley (D-NV), and Heidi Heitkamp.
--------------------
The fact that 18 women out of 100 senators would be a record high is pathetic. But it's progress.

Nate Silver's work allowed him to essentially call all 50 states correctly in last night's vote. He correctly predicted the 49 states called by the networks Tuesday, and estimated that Florida would be essentially tied with Obama having a very slight edge. Four years ago he correctly predicted 49 of 50 states, missing only Obama's narrow win in Indiana.

45164. robertjayb - 11/7/2012 7:03:33 PM You're welcome, Elizabeth...
I won't just be your Senator, I will also be your champion.
Thank you for being a part of this,
Elizabeth
Awwww...isn't that nice?
45165. Wombat - 11/7/2012 7:07:00 PM At risk of being even ruder than usual: After the endless farrago of crap that Concerned threw up all over the Mote during the election season, which incorporated just about every piece of crazed wingnut thinking that makes up today's Republicans, he can go fuck himself.
He is the political equivalent of Tourette's Syndrome, except the stuff he comes out with isn't involuntary. 45166. Wombat - 11/7/2012 7:09:45 PM Now that I got it off my chest... I don't feel that much better. He will no doubt continue, rather than slink back under the rock from whence he came. 45167. concerned - 11/7/2012 7:28:57 PM Re. 45165 -
I'll just continue to poke you back under your rock with my baseball bat of reason and knowledge.
Benghazi really hurts, doesn't it? Well, it should. 0bama's looking at a 4 year coverup, if he can manage it. So, go ahead and roll your LW turd balls of ignorance and lies to defend the indefensible. I'm ready. 45168. concerned - 11/7/2012 7:29:24 PM Wombat - where did you ever get the idiot idea that dissent only goes one way? 45169. PsychProf - 11/7/2012 7:30:58 PM A free for all Political Thread, filled with acrimony and insult, has a rich tradition on the Fray/Mote. 45170. concerned - 11/7/2012 7:31:51 PM DJIA down 300 points now - largest drop this year.
And no, it has nothing to do with 0bama's melanin content, but it does with his election. That leaves all you Lefties hanging. Hah! 45171. concerned - 11/7/2012 7:32:45 PM PP -
Well, Wombat oozed out of wherever he secretes himself for no other reason than to attack me personally. 45172. PsychProf - 11/7/2012 7:35:18 PM I have no horse in this race...I am just glad to see the cyberjousting. 45173. concerned - 11/7/2012 7:43:35 PM Just thinking about Wombat's chitinous claws scurrying over a big fat hog's dingleberry, trying to pull it free, LOL. 45174. concerned - 11/7/2012 7:50:33 PM From: Analysis: 0bama wins but Washington unchanged:
They put back all the political players who have made the capital dysfunctional to the point of nearly sending the United States of America into default.
The president likely will be dealing again with a Republican-run House, whose leader, Speaker John Boehner, declared on election night that his party is the one with the mandate: no higher taxes.
Obama will still have his firewall in the Senate, with Democrats likely to hang onto their narrow majority. But they don't have enough to keep Republicans from bottling up any major legislation with delaying tactics.
So the burden falls on the president to find compromise, not just demand it from the other side.
So 0bama has four years to prove that he can compromise. Either that, or accomplish nothing.
45175. judithathome - 11/7/2012 7:57:11 PM Benghazi really hurts, doesn't it? Well, it should.
No more so that the fiasco of 10 years in Iraq.
I guess the deaths you mourn are easier to handle in small numbers.
Now...just where ARE those WMDs again? Can you pinpoint exactly where they are? Hmmmmmmm? I've plenty of time....
And typical of you and your Republican buddies: celebrate the Dow dip...be happy that people might lose their investments...chortle over the second storm about to hit the east coast...it's what those shiftless lefties deserve, after all. 45176. concerned - 11/7/2012 7:59:11 PM Same article:
The voice of the voter came through from 42-year-old Bernadette Hatcher in Indianapolis, who voted after finishing an overnight shift at a warehouse.
"It's all about what he's doing," she said. "No one can correct everything in four years. Especially the economy."
What total bullshit. The recession ended in June 2009. But 0bama sold that laughable fabrication to millions of suckers. I dread the dumbed down crap 0bama will be spewing over the next four years, more for the fact that acerebral types like Wombat will be eating up every word excreted by 0bama with a spoon than anything else.
45177. concerned - 11/7/2012 8:02:48 PM Re. 45175 -
Not paying attention, were you. UN inspectors and coalition forces found plenty of chemical WMD in Iraq itself, and many had been transported to Syria. But this is decade old information at this point.
I was very ambivalent about attacking Iraq and am on record in the Mote (or was it Fray back then) saying so. A matter of record if not altered or deleted. So don't bother with that little dance, JAH. 45178. concerned - 11/7/2012 8:04:12 PM And I'll never stop telling the truth about when the recession ended (June, 2009) unless I am banned. 45179. concerned - 11/7/2012 8:06:10 PM JAH -
The chortlers over bad news like Tinglebell Matthews are all on your side, and you voted for the cause of it all, too re the bad economy.
Your fault, your responsibility - not taking your bullshit on this one.
