Tears flow in DUmmieland: "I'm all choked up..."
Tears are flowing in DUmmieland. And no, it's not from the pepper spray. It's because America--at least the Democrat Party--has had the goodness and enlightenment to NOMINATE AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN! Boo hoo! Sob! I can't believe I lived to see this day! Pardon me, I'm a little verklempt! Talk amongst yourselves. . . .
There, I'm better now. As I was saying, this is a very moving moment for the DUmmies. So let's begin with a musical tribute to White Guilt. Click the link and sing along:
THE LIB'RAL WHITE CROWD THAT CRIED
Tune: "The Little White Cloud That Cried" Original
I was thinking, "Down goes Obama"
Feeling Barry's sure to slide
When all at once I saw, filled with drama
The lib'ral white crowd that cried
They told me they believe what he preaches
And no one cares what he tries to hide
They said sometimes just warm fuzzy speeches
Make all the lib'ral crowds cry
They said Barack will solve all our issues
Heal our souls, still all our fears
Don't ask how, just pass us the tissues
Our eyeballs flow with tears
They asked me why the rest of the voters
Don't believe, their eyeballs are dry
That's how I know that come this November
The lib'ral white crowd will sit right down and cry
The laughably lachrymose THREAD is called, "I'm all choked up..." So grab a hankie and take me out to the bawl game, in blubbering Bolshevik Red, while the commentary of your humble guest correspondent, Charles Henrickson, almost ready to join the worshipful multitudes tomorrow night at the Barackropolis, is in the [Barackets]:
I'm all choked up...
[I'm in love! I'm all choked up!]
When I was born Black & poor over 60 years ago in rural Mississippi there was no way I could have ever even remotely conceived this moment.
[This sixty-year-old black man from Mississippi is probably really a forty-year-old white lesbian from Massachusetts.]
Should I not live to see this election through. . . .
[Being a poor black sharecropper in Mississippi is rough enough, but then there's always the threat of lynchings.]
Thank you America....
[Thank you, Barack America. Now let's hear from the other crying DUmmies. . . .]
And reading that got me all teared up. Bless you.
[Kumbayah, my Lord, Kumbayah. . . .]
I cried during the nom too & I made my husband watch!
[I guess he knows how to get some action in the bedroom later.]
"This is history! You make me watch great football plays. For me this is a great play!"
["Sure, dear, whatever you say . . ." (as he mentally reviews his fantasy football picks).]
Beautifully stated....may you live to see all of Obama's eight years as President and many more.
[Eight is enough! In fact, ONE year of Obama as President would be too much.]
Now I am crying also. . . .
[It's contagious!]
I just wish that certain *white* people on this board and in the "liberal" blogosphere had the decency to not be such @$$holes and work to play African-descended people against women during this cycle.
[Let me guess, you're one of the Hillary Harridans.]
Iowa here sharing your tears...
[WEAR THE TEAR!]
Passing Kleenex. . . .
[That must be painful.]
Now you have ALL of us teared-up! I'm just so happy we can share these tears of absolute joy with each other.
[Schadenfreudenschade?]
This 57 year old, white, ex-combat infantryman, is getting a little misty as well.
[. . . wrote the 27-year-old transgendered grad student.]
Oh jaysunb, you make me cry, I am so happy and joyous for you.....
[Group hug!]
It's time.
[It's blubberin' time!]
D*mn You. Now you got me blubbering like some old fool.
[That's because you ARE an old fool.]
This convention is making me go through the tissues like no tomorrow.
[But save some for tomorrow, when we make the pilgrimage to the Barackropolis.]
Congratulations - to all of us.
[We are the ones we've been waiting for.]
I can't help but think that folks like Rosa and Malcolm and Dr. King and all those involved with the movemnt helped free us all -- blacks from their oppression and whites from their bigotry.
[Therefore, since we've all been freed from oppression and bigotry, when Obama loses in November, it will simply be because he's a lousy candidate, right?]
Your post just got me teary!!
I'm crying with you. . . .
your post brings tears to my eyes. . . .
[Glub, glub, glub. . . .]
I had no idea I'd be so hyperventilating during all this. . . .
[Careful with thos asphyxiation games, ben.]
my emotions are way over the top!
[That's why you're a liberal.]
I promise you - that I will do all I can to get Barack Obama elected in November.
[Barack will call you when he needs you, Rev. Wright.]
I'm white and 46 (today) and am sitting here crying with you.
[It's my party and I'll cry if I want to, cry if I want to. . . .]
Now I'm getting weepy, too.
Now I'm going to cry!
The tears are flowing.
[Flash flood warnings are in effect. . . .]
This is the mountain top.
[Please make the fountain stop.]
You have shouldered the hurt and I as a white have shouldered the embarrassment.
[White Guilt in a NUTshell.]
New Hampshire unanimous for OBAMA!
[Indonesia unanimous for OBAMA!]
It's a great day for Americans and the world!
[Bah, who cares about Americans? It's what the WORLD thinks that counts!]
HOPE lives.
[WHITE GUILT lives.]
I'm a 32 year old middle class white girl . . .
[. . . pretending to be the son of a black sharecropper.]
I can hardly read the thread titles.
[We'll hold a fundraiser for you, sfexpat2000.]
Barack Obama, the first African American president of the united states.
[Well, sort of--on the African, American, and President parts.]
There are no words.
[For Democrats, there are ONLY words.]
As a Canadian, I have followed the Primaries and now the Convention.
[Take care of your own country, you stupid hockey puck.]
rest assured many people from all over the world are rejoicing with you all.
[They LIKE us, they really like us!]
As a person originally from the Caribbean, I really do share your sentiment.
[Parrots of the Caribbean.]
Stock up on those tissues, you will need them for Inauguration Day.
[Stock up on those tissues, you will need them for Election Night.]
I've never been as proud to be an American as I am today.
[Is that you, Michelle?]
You'll see the election. And we'll toast victory along side of you.
[WHEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! Freudenschade, baby!]
this old white woman found herself crying too.
[There, there, Hillary. There's always 2012. . . .]
This is not the end of racism, but IT IS, FOR CERTAIN, THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF RACISM.
[Gotta give yourself that escape clause for when Barry loses in November. . . .]
Hugs to you.
[God bless us, every one!]

Said the DUmmie, whose white guilt was apparently not sufficiently assuaged by desegregation, affirmative action, "hate speech" laws etc.
These people are nuts. They invest so much in the public figures who fulfil their own empty dreams of importance it's no wonder they develop mental illnesses when normal political processes deny them what they think they deserve and need.
"These people are nuts. They invest so much in the public figures who fulfil their own empty dreams of importance it's no wonder they develop mental illnesses when normal political processes deny them what they think they deserve and need." claw with thumb
Really? We (stupid libs) invest so much in "the public figures who fulfill" (stupid libs) own empty dreams", that we (libs) develop "mental illnesses". Ever heard of "projection'?
Come on. Just because you said this, mandible, you're automatically inducted into the mentally-ill registry. From now on, the Libs are your only hope.
Really? We (stupid libs) invest so much in "the public figures who fulfill" (stupid libs) own empty dreams", that we (libs) develop "mental illnesses".
Yes, really. Look up PEST on wikipedia. It's a real term invented to describe stupid libs with cooked brains after Bush won 2 elections.
Ever heard of "projection'?
Yeah, isn't it a river in Egypt? Oh, snap.
Come on. Just because you said this, mandible, you're automatically inducted into the mentally-ill registry.
Crying over a lame speech by a politician doesn't constitute investing oneself excessively in that politician? I can't picture myself sobbing at K-Rudd's picture on the tv screen when he promises to save Australia from global warmening ..
Day One: Michelle's Speech was great.
Day Two: Hillery's was greater.
Day Three: Billery's was greatest.
What does that leave for Barry? [other than a greek temple and an AC/DC concert stage]
(hint- alot of people asking why they didn't vote for Hillery...)
Oww, Dutch, that one's gonna leave a mark!
Let Commrade Obama take ALL your troubles and cares away!
He will rid the world of hate and violence. He will surely bring global peace where even the Jew and Arab will be friends..
Poverty? over.
Illness? gone!
Malnutrition and starvation?, History!
War and hate? A thing of the past!
Racisim? Never more!
Come next January the entire world shall join hands and lift our voices to the heavens in unison. Every man, woman and child!
The Obama-messiah is here and the meek shall certainly inherit the world.
It's time for CHANGE, time for HOPE.
Surely the Obama-messiah shall deliver us from the wicked Rethugs and Neocons.
What a total bunch of lunatics!
When I was born Black & poor over 60 years ago in rural Mississippi there was no way I could have ever even remotely conceived this moment.
Liar.
Why do communists cry so much?
"I was born a poor Black child ..."
/Steve Martin
Of course, when poverty still exists in 1 year and wars still dominate the news, the blame will still be placed on Republicans.
The answer for Obanga and the lefties will be MORE social programs, more money for the UN, and less money for defence.
Idiots.
Nice speeches, empty of content, but nicely delivered. Democrats give good speech so I'm looking forward to Obama's stadium speech to the volk.
Well, Elrond, either "Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Fuehrer" or "Fuehrer befehlt, wir folgen!" would translate pretty well into English for direct incorporation into the Adoration Of The Black Guy scheduled for tonight.
What kind of person weeps and sobs over politicians?
13-year-old girls' hysteria over pretty-boy pop-stars I understand.
Surely this is verging on mental illness in adults.

I see an excellent book title there. ;)
Seriously, the weepy-time posts at DU are over-the-top...
"This morning, my cornflakes resembled Obama, and I wept..."
Jeeebus! Is there NO testosterone (apart from the weeping basement warriors) over at DU?
I don't know if I want to backhand them or get them into therapy.
Change Obama to Pelosi,
Change black to woman,
and you have the same group weepy reaction as when the historic 1st woman speaker of the house came to save them. I recall those threads.
They cry because it hurts so good!
Yeah, I know.
If the libs are someone's only hope off a mentally-ill registry, wouldn't that be like the blind leading the blind, tman? Since you're an expect on mental illness, please enlighten us, oh wise(ass) one.
We ain't see nothing yet. The DU will dissolve in a perfect storm of tears and girly squeals tonight as the Messiah ascends to the podium.
I can't help but notice that they didn't get this worked up over the first black female SecState. Or the first Hispanic Attorney General. Or the first black Secretary of State. Or the first female Supreme Court Justice.
Hypocrites, every one.
And MC drags out Troggy in record time. Way to go MC. Weepy cryee self-intitled libtards scream for attention!!
Jeez, troggy, get real. Had your 15 minutes of fame yet, troggy boy? Why not show your true feelings little man? Go to St. Paul you light wieght. What a wimp. Stupid uneducated, ignorant twit.

[Take care of your own country, you stupid hockey puck.]-PJ
Now now PJ, they are referred to as "Crazy Canucks" or "Francophonic Bastards" in polite circles. I don't want you to get in trouble with the PC police for using derogitory terminology.
"the Democrat Party--has had the goodness and enlightenment to NOMINATE AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN! Boo hoo! Sob! I can't believe I lived to see this day!" PJ
I can't believe you survived either. Just my opinion.
This is the first time a man of color is running for president. So what? I'm with you, PJ. Big deal, right? So why did you bring it up? You and I both know why.
I'll tell you what, wingnuts. You're in trouble. I don't have to tell you why. But I will anyway. The truth is on our side. You're wrong, wrong, wrong about friggin everything. The war, the economy, tax structure...you're wrong again and again. A monkey could figure it out. A friggin watermelon could figure it out.
You want to make this all about taxation, about a "global warming fantasy", about immoral stem-cell research, defeat and surrender in Iraq, intelligent design, God, and homosexuality. And at every turn, you don't address what's actually wrong. Why? I wish I knew. At every turn, you've made this nation poorer. You're afraid. Of gays, Muslims, equal pay for women, national health care, and government sponsored education for Christ's sake. You're all scared of fucking everything, including Alex Jones, you pussified dumbshits. You are all afraid. And despite all the shit I'm going to get for saying so, you know I'm right. You pussies are afraid.
Realize your deficiencies and get the fuck out of the way.
A bit OT but The funny thing with the whole "racist" canard is that really the only people who are going to matter are those in swing states, ie. not staunch republicans. Telling those people who are already on the fence that they're racist seems a great way to entice a few across and drive away many who have more common sense. "These people just called me a racist for no bloody reason, I'll be damned if I'm voting for them." Plus, the DUmmies seem to somehow think racism is strongest in Rethugs -- news flash, most Retuhgs wouldn't vote for a Dem no matter their skin color. Exhibit A John Kerry. The only way racism could realistically be proven from an election result would be if Rethugs ran a black candidate but then some refused to vote for him/her. Apparently none of that registers in the slightest though. The DUmmie disregard of logic is mind-melting.
I'll tell you what, wingnuts. You're in trouble.
Oh noz! Obama's declining poll numbers r coming to get the wing nutz!1!!!1!!
I don't have to tell you why. But I will anyway. The truth is on our side.
The truth about what? Oil market fundamentals being unrelated to price? The entire atmosphere burning off if taxes don't get raised?
You're wrong, wrong, wrong about friggin everything. The war,
Is that why the "insoluble quagmire" and "inevitable descent into civil war" that Dems predicted have failed to materialize?
the economy,
Which part of the economy, specifically? The part where higher taxes crimp growth?
tax structure...
Is that why teh evil rich paid a record share of the income tax bill after Bush's tax cuts?
you're wrong again and again. A monkey could figure it out. A friggin watermelon could figure it out.
And yet strangely you-all keep failing to convincingly correct our supposed horrendous mistakes or present anything viable to deal with their supposedly horrible results.
You want to make this all about taxation, about a "global warming fantasy", about immoral stem-cell research, defeat and surrender in Iraq, intelligent design, God, and homosexuality. And at every turn, you don't address what's actually wrong. Why? I wish I knew. At every turn, you've made this nation poorer.
Er.... Okay then. You have noticed that the economy stubbornly continues to grow, even while Eurozone economies are beginning to drop like flies, right?
You're afraid. Of gays, Muslims, equal pay for women, national health care, and government sponsored education for Christ's sake.
Yes, fear of homosexuals is a prime motivator for rethug conservatives. And the idea of a threat to the traditional family structure, which of course is not borne out in any way, shape or form by the social and economic health of places where this structure has already been damaged, is a far less rational fear than that Dick Cheney is secretly working against world peace in order to get more money for Halliburton.
You're all scared of fucking everything, including Alex Jones,
Being disgusted with Alex Jones for heading a mob that chases diminutive Asian women around and hounds them for their politics =/= being afraid of him.
...you pussified dumbshits. You are all afraid.
Yes, as evidenced by our stubborn refusal to believe that hamburgers and car exhausts are going to burn off the earth's atmosphere and flood the entire world and kill everybody.
And despite all the shit I'm going to get for saying so, you know I'm right. You pussies are afraid.
So according to Troglaman, a cry of fear sounds something like: "Don't vote for Obama - he's going to raise taxes and create lots of inefficient government programs which will waste a bunch of money to no avail!"
Whereas the following sounds like a rational view of the world:
"People don't want to vote for Obama because they don't want to see a guy with slightly-darker-than-normal skin be President! The Republicans must have stolen the election because the results were different to the exit polls which only Democrat voters could be bothered participating in! They're going to steal the election again, even though the same media that run the oh-so-accurate exit polls are now showing poor poll results for Obama! A vote for McCain is a vote to continue the fascist theocracy that has shredded the American constitution, raped the environment, killed free speech and murdered Iraqis for oil money and hegemonistic imperialism!"
"Er.... Okay then. You have noticed that the economy stubbornly continues to grow, even while Eurozone economies are beginning to drop like flies, right?" mandible
Yeah. Everything's great. The economy's just fucking great. Right everybody? The dollar's strong. Food prices are going down. Fuel prices won't affect shit. Europe's nations are economically dropping like flies.
You're nuts. A deluded lemming.
troglaman said...

Er.. it's doing better than the Eurozone economies, which are largely run by libs according to lib policies. And it's doing nowhere near as badly as U.S. libs would have you believe.
Right everybody? The dollar's strong. Food prices are going down. Fuel prices won't affect shit.
Um so why is it again that drilling for oil isn't allowed?
Europe's nations are economically dropping like flies.
You're nuts. A deluded lemming.
Would that explain why I stubbornly follow lib politicians' refusal to drill for oil, then complain about how the Rethugs are letting high fuel prices destroy the economy?
Oh, wait, that's not me, it's you.
You seem a little more irritable than your normal, wacky self, t-man. What's going on?
"blacks from their oppression and whites from their bigotry."
Yes...quite.
So President Obama will end Affirmative Action and Minority Set-asides and Racial Profiling will no longer be a crutch for criminals to lean upon, right?
Somehow...I doubt it.
"... At every turn, you've made this nation poorer. ..." - t-man
Well, that's just wrong. GDP (a measure of the nation's wealth) is about 1.5 times what it was in 2001. How can such growth in wealth be making the nation poorer?

Aug. 28 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. economy expanded faster than previously estimated in the second quarter, helped by a surge in exports that will probably wane as Europe and Japan head toward recessions.
Gross domestic product increased at a 3.3 percent annual pace, compared with the initial estimate of 1.9 percent, the Commerce Department said today in Washington. Trade contributed the most to U.S. growth in almost three decades.
Well, that's just wrong. GDP (a measure of the nation's wealth) is about 1.5 times what it was in 2001. How can such growth in wealth be making the nation poorer?" the ever informed galt.
2001. What progress. Want to compare the value of the Euro vs the dollar since 2001? Didn't think so, you baboon. The value of the dollar has dropped since 2001. Prove me wrong, you stupid dumbass. Please.
The Euro has been overpriced and overhyped since its inception. And if the ECB starts an aggressive loosening cycle, as they may have to do to revive member economies, the bottom will drop out of the local unit. BTW a weaker dollar =/= people being "worse off," Trog. It's a possible symptom of a weaker economy. GDP growth is a far more reliable gauge of what's actually happening in economic terms than currency values. Even with a weaker dollar meaning importers pay more in net terms the economy is still growing at a faster rate than in Japan and the Eurozone.
"The Euro has been overpriced and overhyped since its inception." Euro crab claw
God. So the fuck what. THE EURO HAS BEEN GAINING VALUE AGAINST THE DOLLAR. That's indisputable. Rationalize to your heart's content. The value of our currency is, in part, determined by what we owe. Could any one of you deny that we owe a whole buttload of money to, hmmm, let's see, communist China? Or the Muslim country that represented the largest number of 9-11 hijackers? How much do we owe China and Saudi Arabia? Korea? Japan?
But I'm sure this is all some brilliant wingnut plan. Pay the communist/Muslim/Asian/terrorist consortium a whole shitload of money and they'll, being the dumbfucks they obviously are, like us or something.
I say give them beads and trinkets. It'd be a whole lot cheaper.

You're right! Instead, we should give them the materials and knowledge necessary for building nuclear weapons, on the proviso that they don't use it to build nuclear weapons.
On a side note; for ten points, U.S. sovereign debt is worth less/more if someone attacks the U.S. ... ?
"On a side note; for ten points, U.S. sovereign debt is worth less/more if someone attacks the U.S. ... ?" claw
Sovereign Debt. Interesting concept. I'd say, paradoxically, 'less' since attacking the US has, obviously, happened and we didn't get Osama. The weaker our defenses have become, the more our enemies have gained. We've been militarily and economically stretched to our limit. However, I'm sure the defense contractors are really, really happy with the complete and utter failure because they know we'll just have to buy more tanks and shit. Osama knows it too. He's not the same type of cave dweller as I am.
"... 2001. What progress. Want to compare the value of the Euro vs the dollar since 2001? Didn't think so, you baboon. The value of the dollar has dropped since 2001. Prove me wrong, you stupid dumbass. ..." -t-dimwit
That's a growth rate averaging 3.5%/year. Europe's (EU) GDP has averaged around 1.5% since 2001.
Granted the dollar's value has gone down due to debt, etc. but that tends to spur investment in the US as well as exports growth. The fact remains that overall wealth has grown, dumbass! We've not gotten poorer as a nation as you ass-erted.
Mr. Galt. This country will owe around a trillion to our present and future big assed threats before this party's over. Are you seriously telling me this doesn't qualify as 'getting poorer'? Get help while you can. I know a good shrink. 867-5309. Call. Do yourself a favor.
We agree on debt t-man, surprise! But then again, the amount of debt is less relevant than the ability to pay it back
(See also, Alt-A Mortgage, Subprime Mortgage, Option ARM Mortgage, Credit Default Swaps, Collateralized Debt Obligations, Collateralized Loan Obligations etc.). US Treasury debt is less toxic than that shit! Why do you think they're able to sell so much of it?
"But then again, the amount of debt is less relevant than the ability to pay it back" the brilliant galt
So we have enormous debt because we (you and I and our grandkids) can pay it back. That's just great. Fuckin great. And you think YOU have done a good job of investing our kid's money and have a fucking clue?
Sorry. Doesn't wash.
"... So we have enormous debt because we (you and I and our grandkids) can pay it back. That's just great. Fuckin great. ..."
Credit is one of the greatest inventions ever, t-man. Just think how tough life would be if you had to work 30 years saving up cash before you could buy a home (or cave). How many people would have nice warm houses/caves then?
Don't get me wrong: we agree that government must pay most of its way up front and should stick to its legitimate, Constitutional function.
Part of the problem is that our great (gag) representatives in Congress never learned the lesson a wise man once taught me: "When your outgo exceeds your income, your upkeep becomes your downfall."
Most of the problem is that the altruists/socialists in Congress still believe in the welfare state and extort from those of us who believe in earning our own rewards to reward those demanding free lunches (and free houses, and free healthcare, and a free ride on everyone else's dime).
