RWers are threatening to leave the US should BHO/JRB become President/VP

[XanaDUer]

(which they will, btw) :rofl: They had better start making their plans now.

Well, where can they go? I am siting here thinking, where is the world is there a pure, right-wing white government, or non-white, for that matter, that the boo-hooers and whiners can flee to to live out their dreams of RW heaven-on-earth?

Hmmmm. Can any of you smart DUers think of anyplaces they can go? Canada? Nationalized health, even with a "RW" government, subsidized housing. Poland has something of a RW gov., they have had to let go of many policies to keep their EU membership. Take it from me who travels to the Republic of Ireland-they won't want 'em and they won't like it. Is America in its agonal gasps of free-market systems, and a new New Deal is about to go down? South Africa could have been a place to go at one time, but not anymore. Rhodesia is now Zimbabwe is now run by the communist head of the African National Congress, Mugabe. He's a nut, though.

Iran, Egypt, Lebanon...Slovakia? Is the US the last place that has a right-wing government at this point. Even what is considered "RW" in Europe is more along the lines of the Dem party in the US.

[alsame]

1. Good riddance to bad rubbish. I'll help them pack.

[grannie4peace]

2. bye bye - better them than me :):)

[Time for change]

3. All I can say about that is

Good riddance!

[blue sky at night]

4. those unamerican bastards.....

is there somewhere we can send money to help them on their way?

[XanaDUer]

8. But where?

Are we going to have to send a petition to another country, say France, saying, in essence, "Please take our right-wingers who are now refugees from the US, you cheese-eating surrender monkeys!"

[Kahuna]

5. Good!

:applause:

[cliffordu]

6. bUH-bYE!!

[Tikki]

7. I don't care where they go.... I just want them to..

understand that all our hard work to restore this Nation will not be at their leisure.

Tikki

[XanaDUer]

13. But, they'll be turned back at the border

that won't work. If the fence across the US-Mex border gets built, they could emigrate there, and the fence will keep them out. Although, I don't want to inflict them on Mexicans, who suffer enough b/c of US policies.

[HughMoran]

9. You mean BHO/JRB

That's Joseph "Robinette" Biden if we're using middle names :p

[XanaDUer]

16. hey, I had it right! Let me stick in the R

Let me correct it.

[HughMoran]

20. Nice

I think Biden's middle name is weirder than Obama's :rofl:

[nadinbrzezinski]

10. I looked at emigrating in 2004

so I would not laugh too hard...

[XanaDUer]

19. So did I, and so what?

I still might to Ireland. But, I'm not a right-winger, so I probably won't object too much.

Thanks though!

[donheld]

11. No other country wants them

[shadowknows69]

12. Is there a fund we can contribute to?

Beat that holiday rush and leave now!!! Just in case, because you know that if Obama wins he'll seal the borders and imprision all white men. I love the smell of freeper fear in the morning. Smells like victory.

[Nailzberg]

14. Where would they go? They hate forgeigners.

[chimpymustgo]

33. HA!!

:rofl:

[EFerrari]

50. Ssshh! PLEASE do not discourage them!

[EV_Ares]

15. Thank you, best news I have seen or heard all day, the country would certainly be better w/o them.

[XanaDUer]

22. Well, some are saying this

some I work with, too, because they think that bibles will be removed, gay marriage forced upon them, all sorts of horrors.

so, some are scared enough to want to leave, but I started thinking about it, and i was wondering, where would they go to?

[OwnedByFerrets]

17. I think S. Korea would be a great place to dump them....nt

[SoCalDem]

18. What a heavenly side-effect..

Seeing as how most of them fear "being identified" more than almost anything, how will they even leave the US? Need a passport these days, folks:rofl:

[psychmommy]

21. my answer is to go to europe

as the racist bastards used to tell me to go back to africa. the dirty scum- i am african amercian and native american. wherever they go they'll be treated like aliens-the way they treated anybody that immigrated to america. karma is truly a bitch.

[hobbit709]

23. Aren't there still some remote desert islands somewhere?

Or in the middle of the Sahara or similar.

[melody]

24. Promises, promises

I wonder if we could send them tourist guides touting the beauty of Iran.

[XanaDUer]

30. They won't like that because it is full of radical muslims

and I think you cannot proselytize Christianity, either. However, that is an interesting point, since they do have conservative governments, but not the way some of the folks I know mean it.

I was told that conservatives are afraid that will be put in camps once Democrats take over and have a majority in congress. Christians will be "persecuted", and they feel they already are now. When I protest mildly that someone simply questioning you or disagreeing with you is not persecution, they disagree.

[melody]

36. They have the same paranoid fantasy that the other side has

We'll all be gathered together and herded onto the cattle cars. It's crap -- and anyway, fundie Christians wouldn't even have an identity as Christians if they weren't persecuted. They should thank us. lol

[XanaDUer]

45. I have polite conversations with many very conservative Christians I work with

always initiated by them (I'm of the old-fashioned don't-discuss sex, politics, or religion at work school), and they do feel that conservative christians are persecuted on earth. And, there are places on earth they *are* persecuted, but I said that America is not one of them.

I pointed out the difference say, between what Hitler did to Jews and gays and communists, people of conscience who objected to his politics, and someone not wanting to convert or have a conservative-christian lifestyle forced upon them and codified into law is *not the same*.

Then I usually hear something like - "But, isn't America a Christian country?" plaintively. And then i address that canard. I think D. James Kennedy was pushing some infomercial about that topic when he was alive.

I say that Christians are in the majority in this country, we have strict blue laws in our state-how can a persecuted group have that kind of pull?

But, in their minds, they are under assault at all times.

[melody]

55. Many fundies think this is "their" country and so they should be in control

If they aren't, they see that as "persecution". It's the same nonsense you get from racist whites.

I always quote John Adams on these matters ...

>"This nation of ours was not founded on Christian principles."

He and Jefferson both said that over and over again. I doubt any "true American" RW fundie has EVER read anything written by a founding father.

[rateyes]

25. Put them all in a uniform and ship them to Iraq. nt

[EstimatedProphet]

26. How about the south pole?

No furriners, lots of raw solar radiation - since they don't believe in global warming. Wide open. Personally I'd rather they go to another planet, but this is more feasible.

[slor]

27. Sweet...

too bad they are too dishonest to actually do it.

[XanaDUer]

52. I work with right-wingers whose kids are on PeachCare

which is the state of Georgia's medicaid program for kids. And, they rail against the dirty hispanics here in Georgia who they feel are stealing from white people.

we had a local politician who wants to stop the children of immigrants from attending public schools or getting any healthcare here. when I probe why this is not a good idea (pandemics and an uneducated underclass will not be good for anyone), the main concern seems to be that some non-white person is getting something on their dime.

I'm not from Georgia. Also, there are lots of nice dems and progressives here; i work with them in political groups.

[monmouth]

28. I noticed luggage was at bargain prices at Macy's....n/t

[Tangerine LaBamba]

29. Mississippi, maybe?

Naw, too diverse.

Antarctica? It's really white there.

[Duer 157099]

31. Any country that we'd like see fail in the next decade

That's where they should go, because there's no doubt that's the effect they would have.

Maybe if they all go to China or India, all of our jobs would be shipped back over here?

[XanaDUer]

34. I'm only half joking, though

I am wondering where they would like to emigrate to. I am going to ask them where they would like to move and why they chose that particular place.

[OswegoAtheist]

75. "Maybe if they all go to China or India, all of our jobs would be shipped back over here?"

That, good DUer, is the funniest thing I've heard all week. Bravo! :toast: :applause:

To remain on topic, why not Lebanon? It's chock full o' Christians, it's right up against Israel (so they can hasten the second coming), and what more can they do there that Syria and Israel haven't done already?

Oswego "Plus Lebanon supplied us with 100% of our cross-dressing desk corporals in the Korean War" Atheist

[newfie11]

32. Good, I thought about leaving if BHO/JRB didn't win.

Better the repugs leave then me.

[XanaDUer]

40. There is no reason for them to leave, but some people seem truly

afraid. The fear seems to center on their children/family/churches being destroyed. We got a flyer here in 2004 saying that, should the "liberals" win the Presidency, we will outlaw bibles (which I'm not for, btw) and all sorts of bad things will happen to conservative Christians.

If one holds these beliefs, and one is free to, I started to think where would i move to if I wanted a white, "Christian", bible-based place to live. And I cannot think of one place.

[newfie11]

71. I can't imaging what they think Obama has said or done to cause this reaction.

One crazy person starts talking to another then all of a sudden everyone believes it.

[AzDar]

35. Bonus!

:-)

[mike_c]

37. only the rapture would make me happier....

eom

[tulsakatz]

38. but..........aren't they the 'country first' guys?

I mean, this is the party who uses Country First as their slogan and they are the ones who yell patriotism at every opportunity and who use the yellow ribbon 'support the troops' stickers on their SUVs, whether or not they really do support the troops. They've got that little bumper sticker and that's their proof!

So, when an election doesn't go their way, they bail? That doesn't sound like much of a patriot to me.....

Having said that, I'd also be glad to help them pack their bags! As David Letterman said recently, 'do you need a ride to the airport?'

[northernlights]

39. who in the hell would take them?

I expect they'd be turned back at any border they managed to reach. Seriously. Who would want them?

Maybe *that's* what we could do with $700B. Pay some other country to take them off our hands. It *might* be enough to tempt someone, somewhere...

[chowder66]

41. Sessesionist Alaska Perhaps?

[liberal1973]

64. I like that idea

To all the good Americans in Alaska it would be the time to get the heck out of Dodge. The fascist are coming!

Yep let Alaska be the land of the republican fascist. Let all go. The ted nutgents, murdochs, and everybody that's like the right wing idiots in that video.

[concerned canadian]

42. they better not try to sneak into Canada

They would be horrified to see what kind of television shows are popular here, like 'little Mosque on the Prairie'.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0923293/

[johnaries]

43. I would say "GREAT!", but I wouldn't want to wish that

on any poor unsuspecting country.

[johnaries]

48. How about Eye-Raq? Or Transutopia?

http://www.transtopia.org/island.html

http://libertariannation.org/b/oceans.htm

[EFerrari]

58. Where would they go? Even El Salvador is repudiating rightwing lunatics.

Too bad Bush never followed up on Mars.

[awoke_in_2003]

44. New Zealand

I hear their fundies are as bad as ours.

[XanaDUer]

46. Bingo!

Hadn't thought of that one. thank you.

[XanaDUer]

47. Honduras!

it has a right-wing military government, but not english-only. i don't think it has socialized medicine.

[EFerrari]

51. Honduras is coming around. About the only place in Latin America

still left that kisses up to fascists is Colombia.

[XanaDUer]

54. You're right.

But they will have to learn spanish.

I'll suggest this as a potential new place to live, but play down the learning-Spanish bit.

[EFerrari]

56. It's still America, isn't it? I can hear them now!

:)

[awoke_in_2003]

60. For years I have dreamed

of emigrating to a beautiful, isolated country that doesn't go around the world pissing people off, and had a relatively small population. I always thought about kiwiland, at least until I talked to someone from there.

[EFerrari]

49. Don't tease me like that!

Hey, freaks!

I'LL BUY YOU LUGGAGE! I'LL ARRANGE YOUR SHUTTLE TO THE AIRPORT -- or arrange to have your trailer towed to that wall you wanted so much! Let's see if you can haul your @ss over it!

:rofl:

[juno jones]

53. Oh please

It's be almost as good as the rapture.

[progressiveforever]

57. Can we get it in writing and make them sign????

[CitizenPatriot]

59. NEW DEAL: Fundys move OUT of America

and we will pay off your massive debt.

Id' send 'em to alaska, but after how they handled Troopergate, they don't deserve to get stuck with a bunch of wing nuts. No one would want them- even europe is off limits for them; the Europeans think they are provincial morans, not to mention the fact that they've had massive muslim immigration over the past ten years and the fundies might not like that. I just don't think they could take the diversity of the culture.

what else is left for them? god. I really don't know. Hey, they like Israel a lot - any deal there? They'd be well positioned then to continue their holy war, with the added bonus of being able to put their money and body where their mouths are. Win win? I think so. Except, sorry to the Jewish folks....but if you use the fundies for armies, maybe it will work out for everyone? I hear the fundies dont' like any help from the govt and like to do everything by their own boot straps, so it wouldn't cost the Israelis much, and they would get a free army.


(sarcasm...barely)

[jimshoes]

61. Maybe they could go help out in Iraq

You know, maybe build a few BBQ Rib shacks or Video porn rental shops. Buy a 7-11 over there, that would be a switch.

[Kip Humphrey]

62. My personal recommendation is Iraq. I hear they have a shortage of people lately. That said, it has

to be somewhere where they can receive Rush Limpballs.

[Poseidan]

63. send them to Russia

Just for fun. I'm sure our comrades will enjoy assailing them with vodka-fueled rockets.

[dee15644]

65. BYE, BYE

And don't let the door hit you!

[Vektor]

66. I hope they mean it.

That would be the icing on the delicious cake of an Obama presidency.

Racists, warmongers, and hatemongers have no place here.

[pitohui]

67. money talks bullshit walks -- david duke is in syria

maybe they can go there

[grannylib]

68. Good riddance to the lot of them. We would certainly be better off

without them. Our nation would be better off without them.
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way OUT, scumsuckers. They don't deserve this country. They've had too much of a role in destroying what we now need to restore.

[fla nocount]

69. Nobody wants our offal, dead batteries, spoiled milk and bad ideas,

[Waiting For Everyman]

70. Alaska. Sane people there could take their places here.

[Neshanic]

72. Their own little Jonestown I hope.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

73. Back to the compound up in Idaho!!!

Just like in 92-93-94 when they hated America and defended scum like Koresh and McVeigh.

[DailyGrind51]

74. "And don't let the Statue of Liberty kick them in the ass on their way out!"

77. Buh Bye

and good riddance!

[BoneDaddy]

78. Honestly that is good

please leave.

[Stellabella]

79. I say,

don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.

[Incitatus]

80. They can all move to Alaska and then we can let them succeed.

[csziggy]

81. Let them have one of those Pacific Island groups where the highest point is a few feet above sea

Level NOW. Then when the global warming they do not believe in raises the ocean level, they can deal with it first hand. Maybe a "baptism" will get them to look at reality.

[alarimer]

82. I'll help them pack.

Where shall we send them?
