Why is it Republicans are such poor losers and feel the need to constantly pose false dilemma questions to mischaracterise those who oppose them?

Fortunately that's not actual true - the poor perception and low character of a few does not necessarily reflect on the majority.

i'd love to see you point out anything factually wrong here.

obama's win in popular votes was statistically milquetoast.

Democrats are never satisfied with a "big win"

[democrats] have to overreach for that "landslide" label

I assume you are aware that these are both unqualified (i.e blanket) statements, which as such are patently untrue.

It's called communication. We generalize in order to make even the most basic communication possible. Don't like it? Tough shit.

Because, in order to be a man of the left, you have to be a thoroughly miserable creature.

It's called bullshitting and it is habit forming. Just ask Karl Rove.

I may as well ask why are Republicans gay? Or racist, or having sex with their horses?

Afterall, in your world of 'communication' it only takes 1 specific to validate a universal statement.

I notice that you still can't speak to the accuracy of the issue. So, are you going to say that Obama was the paragon of veracity when he ran the Spanish-language ad that took the Limbaugh quotes GROSSLY out of context and then tried to pin them on McCain?

Or was that a Karl Rove trick?

The funny thing is, while Karl Rove may have played hardball, most of what he said was right. Y'all just can't stand being called on your bullshit. Of course, now that you have a Karl Rove of your own, in Rahm Emanuel, I'm sure he'll be the very image of virtue in your eyes, won't he?

Because, you liberals weren't man enough to satisfy us. So we had to turn to horses, or stick with Republicans (who have a certain horse-like quality).

Afterall, in your world of 'communication' it only takes 1 specific to validate a universal statement.Riiiiiiight. Just keep thinking that. But, hey, why ( ... )

Are you sure you can read?

Although judging by the rest of commentary, it seems you don't actually need to, because who needs accurate information you can just make a bunch of baseless assumptions about people, and what they think and believe?

But what is a liberal, anyways? Is it not just a label? A blanket statement?

I like how you changed that from "Democrat" to "liberal", because that was easier to work with, in trying to make your little leap of faith there from one thing to something entirely different.

So, tell me where you disproved Reality Hammer. All you can do is squawk about Karl Rove when someone pulls your string.

Show me where there's a difference in modern politics.

I would have thought an Obama win would have reduced trolling but it appears to have increased it. :D

And you somehow seem to get some of the most amusing trolls, too! Good job! :D
