It appears that most DUmmies have a hard time shaking their post-election despondency as evidenced by this THREAD. Perhaps if they didn’t GLOAT so much over the exit polls BEFORE the actual results come in, they would now be feeling a wee bit better. The problem was that the DUmmies began celebrating once they heard the phony exit poll results. It was the same syndrome that afflicted Susan Estrich who hit the champagne hard in celebration of the impending end of the Evil Bush Regime only to guzzle the bubbly stuff down even harder hours later to kill the pain when the REAL results were reported. If you saw Estrich’s performance on FNS, it was NOT a pretty sight. She was as demoralized as the following Dummies, of whom we lead off with the sad, sad DUmmie smirkymonkey. As usual the depressed and angry DUmmie postings are in Bolshevik red while the jubilant commentary of your humble correspondent is in the [brackets]:
anyone else having a REALLY HARD TIME coping?
[Yes, it is hard coping with the incredible jubilation I feel over Bush’s win on Nov. 2.]
I am such a mess. Physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.
[I agree. You are definitely a mess, smirkymonkey.]
I had no idea this would hit me so hard. I feel that all my hopes for the future have been shattered. Evil, hate and greed are rewarded. Wrong is Right. Fascism will prevail. Not to mention increased terrorism, hate crimes, isolation from the global community, loss of civil rights, etc.
[On the up side, Dunkin’ Donuts is still open all night. Feel better now, smirkymonkey?]
AND, we have to look and listen to the f*cking Chimp for another 4 long, miserable years. I don't know what to do. I am really beside myself and almost feel like I am on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
[On the verge, smirkymonkey? Methinks you’ve already crossed the sanity boundary long ago.]
I am sick to my stomach and I feel like I am going to have a heart attack.
[And I’m suffering from suffocation, smirkymonkey, due to laughing so hard while reading your posts.]
I haven't been able to sleep since...shit, Nov 1st around 8am CST. I can't find anything to burn off the rage...
[Have you thought of auditioning for the DUmmie FUnnies Dummie of the Year award to burn off that rage?]
I started smoking again, I can't bear the thought of going to work tomorrow, and I really don't have much hope at the moment. I can't eat, I've cocooned myself in my bed all day and have avoided every phone call. Oh - and I broke up with my boyfriend. You are not alone.
[Why do I get the feeling that your ex-boyfriend is celebrating the breakup, PittLib?]
It feels an awful lot like what I imagine Berlin in 1938 was like.
[I hate to be the bearer of bad news, wysi , but it will soon be feeling like Berlin in 1945.]
I'm so venomous right now, I swear I'm growing fangs.
[The good news is that you can now join a James Carville lookalike contest.]
Can't sleep and feeling at first, depressed, and now, anger.
[Give it just 10 minutes and the soothing feelings of blind rage will kick in.]
I don't know where to turn I told my friend to take pictures of the trees and all the open areas of beauty around us now because it won't be their for long.
[Certainly not after the evil Bush pours arsenic into the soil there.]
I think just the way the election went was so devastating. We were all pumped up at the thought of Kerry winning. The numbers were all there. The Dems had outdone themselves on campaigning, putting their blood, sweat and tears for electing John Kerry. The exit polls seemed to reinforce that. We were getting the banquet ready. I was going to get champagne. And then - this. It's just too heartbreaking, too unforeseen.
[The DUmmie Coyote gloating over the Acme Co. Exit Polls only to be foiled yet again by reality’s Roadrunner. BEEP! BEEP! It’s an old story.]
I really do like to maintain a degree of control and I just lost it election day. I felt great in the morning and then slowly over the course of the day my anxiety level kept rising and rising, then at the victory party I knew something was up. The crowd was very subdued. I feel like I have put my heart and soul in this effort for months and this does feel like a huge sucker punch.
[Or like Charlie Brown when Lucy pulled the Exit Poll Football away from him YET AGAIN.]
It could be worse, We could all be in the Sudan queueing up for a cup dirty water and a handful of rice for our starving kids. You will all live to fight another day, most of those Sudanese wont.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL! This is MUCH MUCH worse than lining up in Sudan for a cup of dirty water!]
I am about to have a hell of a bad time at school this morning. I'm a poli sci student and notoriously outspoken, liberal Kerry supporter. In fact, I was on local television a couple weeks ago for a special on electoral college politics and I made no secret of my affiliation. I have a feeling that the college repubs in my American Presidency class are looking forward to this afternoon.
[They will probably looking forward to laughing at your Exit Poll victory gloating.]
Hold your head high. You are the smart one, they are the dummies.
[Thus spaketh Dummie Tashi.]
If it weren't for my son...I would probably be on suicide watch. Or at the very least, I would be too depressed to leave the house. My baby boy has made all the difference in the world. His smile really changes everything, and gives me the strength to stay in the fight, and even to stay optimistic.
[You would be going right back on suicide watch if you found out your baby boy is going to grow up to become and EVIL Republican.]
that I I start crying in the middle of the day while at work. I start crying on the ferry on my way home from work. I can barely eat. I'm hardly sleeping. On Wednesday morning I realized don't believe in God anymore.
[Then try believing in Gaia.]
i'm as angry, and depressed, as i have ever been in my life. i will hate christians, *all* christians, and all republicans, till my dying day.
[Angry and depressed…. Well, at least you’re not bitter.]
Call me weak, I don't much care. All I know is that I truly believed that this nightmare would end on Wednesday and the rebuilding begin. But the outright vicious gloating in the halls was wearing me down to the point of paralysis.
[Pardon me while I gloat over your election-induced immobility.]
My mind is doing strange things, and I have never been so despondent in my life.
[Has your mind done that strange thing called “thinking” yet?]
I had been dealing with insomnia before the elections and had actually gone on both Valium and Wellbutrin. I have been able to quit smoking, and I am actually able to sleep for a part of the night now. I will probably be off the Valium soon. I have no idea what I'll take after that stops being effective, however.
[Try cyanide.]
I am having a horrible time and many of the Dems are making it worse. I have a local Dem who tells me I have to learn to "reach out to the moderate reugs because our state is red, " and we must be more "conservative "to win and then I read Clinton'd piece of garbage about not whining and supporting Shrub. I was really pissed that he says we have to fix our "image" and says nothing about voter fraud. My house is a mess. I can't sleep and I feel my own party is trying to force me to accept the unacceptable. I will not accept the Bush voters and I will not stop hating them. They are evil and I am creeped out by the Dems that want us to pander to them.
[If you can’t accept the unacceptable then try enduring the unendurable. It’s easy….and FUN!]
PING!
Kerry may unconcede is the latest headeline....
More drooling and weird sounds from the DU bigots.
Bwahahahaha!!!!! I think that boyfriend had a lucky escape. I bet he's just sent a cash donation to the Repubs for saving his hide from this yenta! :-)
the Godlessness of these cats always astounds me.
They have no one to pray to or look to when the news is dour.
Oh well. I am smiling.
"I have a feeling that the college repubs in my American Presidency class are looking forward to this afternoon."
I have a feeling this is the first time you've been right about anything in a long time.
I am married to a Dem and have a sister (living with me) who is a Nader supporter. My house is a gloat free zone except for my precious FreeRepublic.
Yes, this sounds like some of the conversations going on between them in my household...BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
On the lighter side, my husband insisted that my son, daughter and son in law all take his politics on line test
It turns out that our daughter is a capitalist, our son is a Libertarian and our son in law is a "fascist" a little to the right of the Pope.
BWAHAHAHAHA!!!
It's your house. AKA the GLOATING zone. My SIL in Austin is also on suicide watch. BWHAHAHA!
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You never really did believe in Him. Sounds to me like your god was of your own making.
I remember being depressed in 1992 and 1996 though I expected Dole to lose so '96 wasn't as much of a shock but never did I enter the depths that the DUmmies have fallen into.
This woman is taking all kinds of drugs while trying to take care of her baby boy? I wonder where she gets her money to support her son, do her drugs and attend college full-time?
