I am so pleased that my candidate won. I think he is an honorable man who can see Right from Wrong. I am just thrilled that we have George W. Bush in office again for 4 years!
That said, considering the heightened emotions that have been displayed on these threads for the past months, it is NORMAL to also feel some sense of celebration that not only did Bush win, his supporters WON, but that Kerry lost and YOU lost.
Excuse me for being human. I think, again, with the comparisons of Bush and his administration to Nazis and Islamofascists, the continuous references to koolaid, etc., and other types of propaganda and even agitprop, gloating is a response that would fall within normal limits of behavior. By the way, it's only because of these examples that I feel this way.
I think, and of course the Left will disagree, that the Democratic campaign was so dirty, vitriolic, and extreme, that the feeling that you got what's coming to you is impossible NOT to have.
LisaZoe, specifically, I didn't quote you, and your post is not showing up on this thread, but I am finding some of your posts to be quite hypocritical. You said this: But, you didn't leave my comment alone. You felt the need to come in there and express yourself. Why would you suggest I leave a certain comment alone, but you don't follow that example yourself?
You said this: I'm not taking anything personally. I find your comments incredulous! I laughed at that list that was made where I was listed under dmadman. You can see from our responses. . . we all laughed at it. However, after that, Laurajean makes some silly comment, and 10 or so of you come on here to disparage her character because of it! Unbelievable hypocrisy on your (in general) part! Geesh! You don't see it? Plus, you still okay the suicide bombing comment, but still find the get a tissue comment completely in poor taste!? You know what? Go. . .get a tissue! That comment is by far one of the most mild comments I've ever read on this board! How can you guys look in the mirror!?
Not really. It would be much nicer if you were all much better losers than you are, then i wouldn't feel the way I feel. But, considering the posts I've read here over the past months, well, yeah, I guess I shamefully feel a bit of joy at the distress you feel. Had the Democratic party been a little less hateful during the campaign, a little less fringe and extreme, toned down the rhetoric just a bit, well, I wouldn't feel this way at all.
