Do you remember how you felt when CNN's Leslie Blitzer told us to "get over it'.?

[Stinky The Clown]

How did you feel, just the other day, when Fat Nino told us once again to "get over it"?

That phrase holds meaning to many of us. Maybe even to you. To many of us, it is essentially the same as saying to us, shut the fuck up and eat the shit we're about to feed you .... and bend over while we fuck you as you eat it. For some of us, when we look at our ever diminishing lifestyle, we think about 'get over it.' When we consider the war and the carnage and the death and the debilitation of scores of thousands (at least), it is hard to 'get over it'.

When we look up from under that bus where we've spent the past eight years, 'get over it' is a difficult concept.

When I hear some of you, in victory, telling those who do not support your guy, those who otherwise **share your values*, those who you need to take him to victory, those who, just a few months ago, you walked with arm in arm, to 'get over it', the affect is the same.

Rage.

I didn't get over the sentiment in Leslie's admonition.

I was enraged anew when Fat Nino said it.

I have NOT "gotten over it".

But you go ahead, Get the high fives from your posse.

Your attitude toward those who don't agree with you is .......... words fail me.

Maybe try to do something that a lot of liberals like to say they do.

Think.

Your anger is better aimed at the other party. Your opponent is well past irrelevant and on into 'pathetic' territory. For her, it IS over.

But you just keep flogging everybody who doesn't agree with you and telling them to 'get over it.

That'll help.

A lot.

I am NOT over watching President Gore being barred from the White House by a bunch of right wing, hack, partisan judges who covered for the theft of the presidency by a bunch of thugs.

I am NOT over watching a good man get handed his hat, and be stripped of his valor, by the incessant lies - LIES - that the media kept in front of us and legitimized for not hours or days, but weeks and months.

"Get Over It" holds lots of bad karma, people.

Choose some other words or better yet, just stop gloating.

You're not helping.

[AllentownJake]

1. There really isn't that much gloating right now

There is more outrage that there are still attacks being made on our candidate and people calling us stupid and the democratic party stupid because he's the nominee. That and the blatant race baiting from her campaign the last 5 days pertty much sums up the anger.

[Stinky The Clown]

2. "Anger in victory" .....

Amazing ........

[AllentownJake]

3. Sorry

Gracious in defeat...Gracious in Victory.

Right now they are behaving like the bad news bears.

[ruggerson]

5. utter bullshit

I've been told to "get over it" numerous times in the past few days, and I've said nothing negative about Obama. On top of that, I've made it abundantly clear I'm supporting him. What I have done, and will continue doing, is defend Clinton from the more asinine attacks against her.

If the price of admission to supporting our nominee is to hop aboard the Clinton-hate train, we're going to lose this fall. People here need to grow the fuck up.

[AllentownJake]

8. Yeah

Well than your one of the good ones however. People who attack Obama than expect us to kiss their ass so they don't vote for McCain recieve no quarter.

[ruggerson]

10. I'm not "good" and they're not "bad"

It's not black and white. However, there's no way I'm hopping aboard the Clinton hatefest here. Clearly Obama is a far better person than most of his online supporters.

[AllentownJake]

11. No on is asking anyone

to put down their love for the Clintons as a prerequisite of joining team Obama. I considered voting for the her up to September and until I saw how she mismanaged her campaign I thought she'd be a good President.

What we are asking people to do is put away their swords. Some people will and IMO they are good because they aren't interested in seeing John McCain on January 21, 2009. Some are bad because they are looking at 2012.

[Stinky The Clown]

13. Who, specifically is 'looking at 2012'?

Some pundits? A few crazy persons insde the actual clinton capmpaign?


Are these 2012-ers a serious problem???????

Do you look under your bed each night before you climb in?

Geeeeze .........

2012 :eyes:

[AllentownJake]

15. Go here

hillaryclintonforum.net

Hillaryis44.com

There are a big group of 2012ers.

Plus a few here.

[Stinky The Clown]

20. Wow ..... three really big, daily go-to sites, those are

I hear them quoted on the news all the time. Just aboput every night.

I hear a lot of people at the old water cooler talking abut what they read on those sites the night before.

You REALLY need to get out more.

See ..... here's the deal ...... what gets said on sites like that means absolutely nothing. NO THING. NA and DA. ZILCH.

And then to add "plus a few here".

All tallied up that's what ..... fourteen people? I'm sorry, but that's pretty damned silly to take that seriously.

Yeah ...... yeou **really** need to get out more.

[AllentownJake]

29. I'm putting you on Ignore

because you are a self righteous. You didn't pick a horse in this race so now you feel you have some sort of moral authority to call out one group of supporters over another. You add nothing to either side. We have refrees on here. They are called moderators.

Bad things have been said by both supporters but you have blinders on what is being said by one side over the other right now.

[Stinky The Clown]

33. I am "a self righteous"?

What does that mean.

"I'm putting you on IGNORE"

Omigawd. I'm devastated.

[KoKo]

42. I thought that site was supposed to be one infiltrated by Limpball's Operation Chaos?

Someone posted something about that last week. I've not been over there but someone posted some comments from the site that didn't sound like anything I've heard from Clinton supporters posting here on DU that belong to it. Not saying that all Clinton supporters are angels in their posts here, but neither are all Obama supporters. I have no doubt that all our sites are heavily infested with Repug Ops and that some of them are obvious and get the stone but others are very carful. Maybe, that Hillary site is the same. :shrug:

[Stinky The Clown]

12. How many of those are there?

I haven't seen any.

But to be fair, I don't read cheerleader threads that would inevitably attract such assholes.

But the 'retaliatory' brush grows broader faster than gas prices rise.

[AllentownJake]

14. In the past week

I've had one Clinton supporter explain to me that the youth vote was bad and that's the reason we are in this mess. That I'd regret working for him and donating money once his true colors are shown.

I've been told that I'm voting for McCain because he's the lesser of two evils.

I could go on and on.

[Stinky The Clown]

30. That's two

Out of what?

[JVS]

4. Remember when John Kerry said not to cry in your teacups.

Follow his advice.

[Stinky The Clown]

6. You just don't get it, do you.

Whatever ........

[JVS]

7. You don't get it. In 2000 we got cheated. In 2008 your candidate lost fair and square.

[Stinky The Clown]

16. My candidate?

See .... there ya go ...... if I don't like Obama, I *must* be a Clinton supporter.

You're wrong.

But don't let that stop you from flinging shit.

Unfucking believable.

[JVS]

21. Since you took it upon yourself to speak up on behalf of those being told to get over it...

it was natural to think that you were part of that group.

Since your not. Fine. You get over nothing. These sad whiners who are crying in their teacups need to get over it.

[dsc]

36. Yes it is natural for people like you to assume that one would only speak up for self interested

reasons. And we are the ones who aren't liberals.

[JVS]

38. Climb down off the cross. Your martyr act is tiresome.

[dsc]

39. I know Obama needs the wood

can't have st obama without his cross.

[mtnester]

9. H2S..you will need a helmet

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

[ecstatic]

17. Is Leslie = Wolf?

:shrug:

[Stinky The Clown]

25. Yes

[Uben]

18. I don't have to get over it

Not now, not ever. To think your opinion would ever sway anything I do or say is presumpuous at best! I've never asked anyone to get over anything, for that exact reason. If I choose to stay here and support senator Clinton until she decides to drop out, that is not be of any concern to anyone not supporting her. I just laugh at how stupid some people are thinking anyone gives a flying fuck what an anonymous internet poster thinks.

There is no rush for us to all run into a room and hold an Obama sign. When he becomes the nominee, there will be plenty of time.
There is no need for you to post or repeat what a political pundit has to say on the subject, I don't give a flip what they think, either, and for you to post their thoughts just serves to show you have not the wherewithal to come up with something original.

Don't shoot until you see the whites of their eyes!

[Stinky The Clown]

22. Uh .....

.... what are yuo talking about?

Pundit?

[tblue37]

43. Don't you realize that the OP was *criticizing* people who say

to get over it? He was not telling you to get over it, he was defending your anger at being told to get over it.

You should read a post before you reply to it in anger.

[sniffa]

19. What a bitter thread by you

Why am I not surprised?

:boring:

[Stinky The Clown]

23. Oh please

[sniffa]

34. Exactly

:boring:

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

24. Take My Advice On How To Deal With All That:

GET OVER IT


Hehehe sorry, kinda had to do it.

[Stinky The Clown]

26. .

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

27. Yeah..... But I'm A Loveable Asshole!

Hehehehe :)

[Stinky The Clown]

28. You got that half right

The asshole part.

"Hehehehe :)"

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

31. You Know I'm On Your Side Right? Was Just Tryin To Make Ya Laugh.

Course, I am an asshole and all. But still...

:)

[Umbram]

35. No wonder you have so much "Rage"

You even let Clinton's supporters set you off against Obama and his supporters.

Now...who are you suggesting needs to stop and "think"?

[Goodnevil]

32. What do you expect

from the reporter who glorified the first Gulf war. The guy who sat there and said how "amazing" the videos were of the bombs going down the chimneys in Baghdad.

The guy is an ass. He always has been and always will be.

I support Obama and I still believe that. Wolf needs to be retired. CNN needs to be retired.

[lumpy]

41. Oh yes, I remember Blitzer being in a state of euphoria over the

barage of Baghdad. Yeah, amazing how CNN gave us a blow by blow account of Iraq 1 and people were really glued to the TV. I was in a state of unbelievable disgust at the whole specticle. I'll never forget pictures of the long line of incineratd corpses of Iraqis who were retreating in defeat from Kuwait. And the fucking yellow ribbons all over the place.

[niyad]

37. k & r

too bad too many people just don't get it.

[gulfcoastliberal]

40. His Wikipedia page doesn't mention his career w/ Christian Broadcast Network...

I don't know how to edit Wikipedia... perhaps someone who does might update his wiki bio to include this information & his association with Pat Robertson??

[SoCalDem]

44. Brian Lamb: "Why aren't YOU PEOPLE over this yet?..it's been 6 months"

he said this angrily to a caller who wanted to talk about the Bush v Gore decision..

"news" types claim to have a historical sensibility, but in reality, they do not..they pretend that what happened before has no lasting effect. we are supposed to experience history like a TV show..watch it and move on to a different channel.

[PerpetuallyDazed]

45. I don't think it's fair to ask (or demand) that someone "get over it"...

However, I think it worse to vote for McCain, or not support the Democratic candidate in the GE because of sour grapes. I'm seeing way more of THIS than people telling others to "get over it"...

[Stinky The Clown]

46. How does McCain fit in here?

I've never said anything except to vote for the D candidate.

[PerpetuallyDazed]

47. That's just my perspective on it

The whole "get over it" thing is coming from a place of frustration for Democrats who want to defeat McCain come the GE

[nadinbrzezinski]

48. You haven't but there are eighteen or so folks

who have fully and completely said that they will vote for McCain

It is partly out of anger, and of those 18 I KNOW that 16 will vote Dem in the Fall... even if some do not admit it

It is the other two that will be amusing

They may, or may not cross party lines... or stay home... or split fifty-fifty.

And that is where some of the anger is coming from

By the way those 18 folks should be, at this point, ingnred in their worst behavior

And as to the get over it comment... nobody has stolen this election...(YET), but 2004, 2002 and 2000 were, and you may argue some of 2006

[Perry Logan]

49. It's not over until the Right are driven out of our country. America is in a state of civil war.

Stealing an election is not a political act, or even a dirty trick. It is an act of war.

The Right are probably too stupid to know it, but they started the second Civil War when they stole the Presidency.

[AlinPA]

50. Who is Leslie Blitzer and Fat Nino? I don't watch cable "news".

[Zomby Woof]

51. "Leslie" was an Al Franken invention

If you think that is insulting in some way to Wolf, the joke's on you.

Al Franken came up with that as a one-liner when he was a featured speaker at the White House Correspondents Dinner back in the early Clinton years. Wolf thought it was hilarious. I bet he would even find the use of it on forums like this more laughable. It doesn't demean him in the least, if that's your intent. Actually, it demeans your arguments against him if you can't marshal the facts, as it is pretty obvious he has little journalistic integrity.

Amazes me to this day people think Wolf is actually concealing his real name. Wolf may not be the most truthful reporter out there, but he is honest about his name, which is more than most of us posting in relatively anonymous safety on the net can say.

[dano81818]

52. it was some friendly advice and here is some more

get over it. you're killing the party and helping out mccain. obama is a reasonable alternative to hillary that any left of center voter should be proud to vote for. and even if you can't muster up the courage to admit this, you should at least be able to admit that hillary can't win and is only damaging BHO's chances in Nov.

[Stinky The Clown]

53. See, when you listen only to your jerking knee, you often get shown to be wrong

If you had bothered to look before you posted, you'd have seen I am not a Clinton fan.

I dislike them both.

But carry on with your lecturing ........
