Lastly, fuck the popular vote. This is WHY we have an electoral college. Old, rural white men turned out in droves for Mitt. Pretty much every other demographic went Obama. Why should we cater to old, rural white men? They're uneducated, they're bigoted, and this isn't their country anymore. It belongs to the educated, mixed masses in the cities.

Uh, hello. The old, bigoted rural white man has just as much of a right to vote on a president as you do. That's called democracy, remember? It's that thing that you're always bleating about, until it does something you don't like.

Jesus Christ - I wish the ignore function also blocked people quoting the ones being ignored. I feel dumber for just having read the idiotic statement you quoted. At least it serves to validate my choice to leave him on ignore when I read utter tripe like this.

I love that he doesn't actually address this. Look at the demographics: women voted overwhelmingly for Obama. Minorities voted overwhelmingly for Obama. Under 40 voted overwhelmingly for Obama. Cities voted overwhelmingly for Obama. Graduate degrees voted overwhelmingly for Obama.

Men, over 40, and rural voted overwhelmingly for Romney. THIS is the problem with the GOP - they have been courting the wrong people. The social issues are what won this election, and it was the democrats stances.


Someone please quote this. I would love to know what he took offense to.

And when we're a bankrupt 3rd world social utopia that you idiots want, those "social issues" won't mean shit. It's not that they've been courting the wrong people, it's that the liberal indoctrination that has gone on in public schools/colleges for the last 20-30 years have produced a bunch of entitled douchebags like yourself.
