It was on TV live in color so NO it is not a lie.

I expected to see a picture of Sarah Palin when I opened this thread.

Hopefully the right wing extremists will get over their bitterness & sour grapes. More likely they'll continue to suck down the bile discharged by the right wing propaganda machine and continue whining about the "liberal media" while the world passes them by.

At least our country takes an election loss with ease.

Did you see the faces of the McCain supporters when they lost. They looked suicidal and hopeless. Politics in the USA is a battleground, its not like that here in the UK at all.

McCain lost, and you as a Republican need to get over that and yourself. Its you that needs to get with the programme.

Please show the clip.

In color? Do people still own B&W TV's?

Which Republicans threatened to leave the country if their candidate lost?

Which Republicans were promising riots in the streets if they didn't win the presidency?

Which Republicans held up signs comparing President-elect Obama to Hitler?

Which Republicans sued to contest the election results?

While this was a loss for Republicans, the expressions you were seeing were temporary. Don't expect Republicans to spend the next 4 years whining on this forum and calling Obama a war criminal and calling for his impeachment. Don't expect Republicans to cry that "Obama is not my president" or that McCain had the election stolen from him by the people who design ballots or electronic voting machine companies.

We lost, we accept it, and we will fight harder next time.

But I said it before and I'll say it again, keep your nose out of our politics. We do not care about or need your approval or disapproval for any of our political candidates.

We're a freedom loving people who paid blood for our independence from your oppressive involvement over 200 years ago. Keep your anti-democratic noses out of our hemisphere.

C'mon now, let's give some credit to the other person who helped: THANK YOU SARAH PALIN!!!!!!!
