Obama Victory Thread

VT Balla,

I know your boy won and all, and congrats for that, but you need to check nuts coming in here showboating when you NEVER come in to contribute anything of your own.

I understand that your Kotex got moist after last night’s victory, but seriously you are talking to people in here like they got no nuts. I like to think most of us have a civil discourse among each other, with some shit talking on the side, but you have not been here but a minute, arriving AFTER La Bamba won, you have not earned the woof-woof you’re shovelin’.

This is not the V-diet forum, and I am happy you lost weight and no longer sweat margarine, but you need to show more courtesy than you are.

You would be more impressive showing humility in your victory, not sure how much of a win it is for you since your hood went Obama by 95%.

Cue useless shit talking from the glom on.[/quote]

LOL bro if you are gonna dig up my old threads and training logs, at least get something that is current. I did the V-Diet like 3 and a half years ago.

Is this not the Obama Victory thread? I must have missed the fucking disclaimer that I needed to have x amount of posts prior to that point to post.

Here is an idea, if you don’t want to read my posts since I don’t have enough street cred for you, IGNORE THEM!

Problem solved.

Nut flexing resumed.

perhaps I could have stated it more elqouently, but I thought it was fairly obvious I was chastising the guy for saying he would never vote for Christie since he reached across the aisle to work with Obama. Given the blatant obstructionism we have seen from the Republican party over the past 4 years in blocking any initiative that the President put forth (partisanship if you want to call it that), I thought it was clear. I will be sure to type every word out next time and use proper punctuation.

That said I was surprised VT was a dem. Strong people are usually conservative. Maybe they inject the people in D.C. with something though I dunno.[/quote]

Wrong on two fronts. I am not a Dem, I’m actually pretty conservative on a lot of issues (or really Libertarian) but the anti-intellectuals the Republicans have courted over the years has pushed me so far out of that sphere there is no way I would consider them.

I am also not strong.

I also don’t live in DC (I guess that’s 3 fronts). I actually live in Virginia, but its just easier to identify myself with DC since I’m so close and work there.

And seriously if you don’t want me in here talking shit, you shouldn’t provide such low hanging fruit. These crybaby and chicken little comments were just ripe for the picking.

I wonder why there are so many people who don’t support Obama in the Obama victory thread, though I’m sure there is just some piece of T-Nation PWI etiquette I’m missing that makes that a-ok. Do you also go the Giants Super Bowl parade wearing your Patriots jersey shitting all over the float?

I’m sure I haven’t “earned” shit either. But here I go posting in the thread anyway. Because you don’t have to prove yourself to a bunch of random people to post on a forum. Welcome to the internet.

That said I was surprised VT was a dem. Strong people are usually conservative. Maybe they inject the people in D.C. with something though I dunno.[/quote]

Again, there’s a big difference between the way you post, and every post of yours I’ve ever read has been thoughtful, reasonable and polite, and the way VT Kringle, along with certain other posters, who comes in here with his tongues out, crying nanny-nanny-boo-boo, and then gets all offended when called on his behavior, and spends ALL of his next four posts (that’s just the ones I’ve counted so far) specifically trying to harass me. He acts like a spoiled child, you act like an adult. That’s why you were not included in that group.

Keep in mind my if my ire appears to be redlining it is because this is NOT the only forum I frequent, but the reaction from a certain group of up to now conspicuously absent boots is exactly the same.

Now this is what I’m talking about. In the Obama victory thread some serious Republican butthurt. I’m only saddened because I think the Obama loss butthurt would have been even better (not on this forum, but another I frequent), but keep it up guys who are losing your mind over Obama’s victory in the Obama Victory thread.

The sad thing is reach out to Libertarians and Ron Paul supporters and the turnout in swing states might have given Romney the election. Instead the middle finger came out to those guys and none of them went your way. [/quote]

This thread would not be ANY fun if it was just a bunch of fist bumping and high fiving.

How bout Chris Matthews and the ever so unbiased MSNBC crew wrapping up their coverage with Matthews expressing his happiness that Hurricane Sandy destroyed the East coast, and gave their guy the edge he needed.

For all the crap you see Conservative commentators get anally raped for, he should get crucified for this sick comment. Idiot.

Did you ever think the problem might not be other people, and possibly look in the mirror? I mean, if you are the common denominator…

Yeah, Iv’e always thought that csulli was a thoughtful poster. VT (aka Santa Claus) on the other hand…ehh…not so much. But we have to expect this after a big election. All the kiddies get excited and want to post in PWI. Then they come in here and…well…a few just don’t properly conduct themselves. Someone points it out and they get all upset.

(shaking head) kids…

Anyway HO HO HO Merry Christmas! :slight_smile:

Yeah Matthews never mind that people have died as a result of that horrible storm. It helped get Obama reelected so it’s a good thing? WOW!

At least the mind set has been exposed. As I’ve always said they will do and say anything to get obama reelected.

Wow, you really don’t care. You don’t care so much you actually took the time to tell me so.

No, Dr. Phil, I never thought that.

Pushharder,

the problem with the 47% comments is that they are just misguided.

the 47% are located in higher % in Red States

The 10 states with the highest % of “non-payers” are Idaho, Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, New Mexico and South Carolina

The 10 states with the lowest % of “non-payers” are Washington, Wyoming, Minnesota, North Dakota, New Hampshire, Mass, Maryland, Connecticut, Alaska, and Virginia.

By my count the “I want free shit voters” live in red states that voted for Romney (except Florida and New Mexico) the “I pay taxes voters” live in Blue States that voted for Obama.

This wasn’t an election that the 47% decided this was an election that was decided by a party that couldn’t figure out how to run on the one thing they could win on…the economy. With roughly 8% unemployment nationwide (much higher in many places) this would usually be an easy election for the challenger, unfortunately the GOP made Romney an easy target as a right wing elitist extremist, with plenty of over the top soundbites that made him seem out of touch, it’s almost like losing was the plan.

Cortes,

If you are going to talk about me you should have the common courtesy to talk directly to me. I only posted to you because you took the time in other posts to mention my name, please grow up, gossiping like a 12 year old girl should be a little embarrassing for you.

Some of the downward market slide can be attributed to Elizabeth Warren being elected. She will most likely strengthen the Consumer Protection Agency. She wants to reinstate glass stegal and get the commerical banks out of the domain of investment banking. Forbes magazine was arguing that the bank lobbies went after her during the election like crazy through financial support to the Republican candidate.[/quote]

Pretty sure she had 2:1 money to Brown.

Trust me, I tried to keep that marxist out of office. But I can only vote once.

Not to mention the fact that included in the 47% are the elderly living off SS (who account for an entire fifth of the group and who, by the way, voted for Romney), veterans, people who don’t qualify for income tax payment but do pay payroll taxes, and people making less than $20,000/year and therefore don’t qualify for any federal taxes.

It’s a bullshit statistic.
