#1 I'm confused. Is this hissy fit more serious than when they were all threatening to move to Canada/France, or is that the next stage?

#2 This is how you divide and destroy a democracy. Our future is in the third world with people like this. This is nothing but hate.

#3 Orwell's 1984 three minutes of hate in action.

#5 Liberals are needy people, they want to be liked. They will do anything to be liked. They are full of "good" intentions and they think that everyone should like them.

When they find out that they are not liked, they respond with anger and irrational behaviour.

Its the same scenario thats played out everyday with the narcissistic bully and the abused spouse. The second the spouse raises up and says no, the needy bully reacts with anger.

Let's just say this country has been abused by these needy people for far too long.

It also explains why they will engage in endless "negotiations" with people that hate us because they don't believe anyone hates them, we just have to be nice to them and they will like us.

What we need is a national psychotherapy week to cleanse our brains of the toxic crap these people spew.

#6 The funny thing is most people watch Keith to see what over-the-top stupid comment he will make. To me he should be become fodder for conservatives. Let's talk about inclusiveness, fairness, or diversity: . Well feels the same way as his/her good friend Keith. When they get keith's "worst person" award, they can reply "No Keith I am YOUR worst nightmare."

Little tyrants and useful idiots.

#9 "Start giving the Republicans hell NOW."

So this clueless leftard thinks it is about Republicans. About 20% of the people that elected Brown were Democrats. Some 50% were independents, and the rest Republicans. This election is about turning back a big, non-responsive to the voters, out-of-control Federal government.

#11 As much as Keith Olbermman obsesses about Teabagging, I think he must be an in-the-closet teabagger. Hey, Keith you got fantasies?

#12 The guy who is telling about "hate is what we need to win" has obviouly inspired of what Ernesto Guevara de la Serna aka Che Guevara wrote.

Enough said

#13 I'll bet a lotta mom's didn't have to turn their heat on last night. Their houses were well heated by the seething anger of their loser children living in the basement.

#14 ...and Olbie's becoming like a caricature of himself. "Heeheehee heeheehee...watch this. Hey, Keith. Great campaign by Brown, huh?"
WAAAA WAAAAA WAAAAA WAAAAA WAAAAA...
It's like throwing a circus monkey some peanuts.

#15 When I got up this morning my wife told me there had been a Dem representative on Fox who'd been saying the party needs to step back and have a look at what went wrong. Then I saw an article on how Barney Frank sounded chastened.

I was surprised. I expected the Dems to dig in their heels and complain that the Brown victory (oh, how I love that word!) didn't count for anything -- Marsha Martha had been a bad candidate, who ran a bad campaign and really the voters favored all the things Dems stand for.

Not to worry. This morning's voice of sweet reason seems to have been the one-off phenom. Hoyer somehow managed to complain that the election of a Republican was a symptom of voter anger against the Republicans. The beauzeaux in this posting are shrieking and howling and barking at the moon.

If all goes our (conservative, Hayekian, anti-Marxist) way the Dems will continue just as arrogant and unashamedly corrupt as they've been for the past year. They'll continue telling the public what's good for the public, continue passing out the boodle to loyal hacks. If they do they'll lose everything in November.

My desire to see them do that stems from a political outlook that's nearly as partisan as theirs is: I was offended by Obama's announcement that he was "ready to rule from day one." Americans, I hope, aren't ruled but governed.

The Dems bitched and moaned about Limbaugh's statement that he hoped to see B.O. fail. I'd have phrased it differently, that I "expected" to see him fail. If he hadn't failed that would have meant that we're wrong in the way we view the way the world actually works. It would have mean that the Marxists and the Junior Marxists and the New Agers and the climate hystericals were right and we were wrong.

The economy's battered, the nation's image is battered, but my world view's vindicated. If enough other people feel like I do the economy and the nation's image can be repaired.

#16 I find it unsettling when the other side does not respect the process. If they don't why should we? And don't forget which side has all the guns...

#17 This win is not going down well with Barry. Watch him closely. I suspect he'll do something stupid to recover the news spotlight very soon.

#18 I'd have phrased it differently

Perhaps that explains some of the difference in incomes. But I nonetheless agree with you 100% on this comment. Or should I say dittos.

And what does $cmts=$vcomments; mean?

Nah, just kidding. They went ape-shit, of course.

#21 I think some of the house Democrats are going to be taking a good long look over their shoulders before the follow Queen Nancy in voting for Healthcare.

Lets hope OBumbleCare is now D-O-A.

#23 I think Brown will be a popular guy down there with his new colleagues. His win took a lot of them off the hook...

#24 Probably the next move will be to try and entice Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins into breaking ranks, or even stepping into the (D) camp.

#26 I can't see Snowe or Collins breaking to the left. Not now, anyway. They can count as well as anyone. They're in the middle, politically, and that's just what the folks in Massachusetts want our politics to be.

#27 Arlen has to be thinking Sestak may not be his biggest problem this year. Snowe and Collins gotta be thing they';re glad they didn't jump on that bandwagon.
