The founder of RedState, Erick Erickson, wrote a surprisingly conciliatory post about Obama- essentially “I disagree with the President’s policies and think they’re bad for America, but he really does believe that what he’s doing is helping the country”. So that was cool. But how do the RedState readers respond? With some highly enjoyable schadenfreude. Some gems from the comment section:
When are people going to understand, Dems never care about oaths. They believe in whatever it takes to win. Never forget “O” said they bring a knife we bring a gun.
“O” is a Alinsky disciple who said that organizers must be entirely unpredictable and unmistakably willing to watch society descend into utter CHAOS and ANARCHY. Winning was all that matters in Alinsky’s and “O’s” strategic moves, the ultimate goal, is NOT to arrive at compromise or peaceful coexistence, but rather to “CRUSH the opposition.
Sorry Erick, but you have lost my readership. To congrat BHO on a win that he got by LYING, DECIEVING, PLAYING SANTA CLAUS is just too much to ask.
this Reagan Patriot will never accept Obama as her president. And for you to blame ONLY the GOP, and not to blame BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA is just too much.
You are wrong Erick… Totally on this subject.
Wow, Erick have you really gone over to the Dark Side? Liberty CANNOT coexist with radical Marxism. Straddling the fence is only going to embed splinters in your family jewels. Get a grip. No man can serve two masters. Either you are with Constitution and liberty loving Patriots or you are not. Take note: James 1:8 (KJV) says
A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. Don’t be that man, please.
Erick…I am one of those people that you are talking about. I believed the “pie in the sky” business. I believe in God. I believe in the Constitution. That all being said…and you will think me as a whiner…do you know how many similarities BHO and Adoph Hitler have? Really…I mean that. The world sat idly by and let it happen. They appeased him…we appease Obama…the people…the Congress and YES THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES.
I believe that BHO set out to do everything that he has done so far. That does not make it right. I, like you, am very disappointed in the Republicans. We have to have a leader with VISION. That has not happened in DECADES…not with Dole…not with McCain and not with Romney.
We have another REALLY big problem in the USA. 47%+ have become selfish and as with the Congress…they want their stuff. Besides Obama having a “collective” mindset…this was like taking candy from a baby…I want…I want…so he gave and he gave. However, Conservatives, like me want to know..what happened to the duties and separation of the three branches of government?; what happened to our Constitution?; what happened to religious freedom?..in fact…what happened to belief in God?; How can a man push, as a state senator, post abortion and sit in front of a camera after Newtown and talk about “children”? Who is going to stop him?
Does anything in the Republican Party ask those blunt, easy to understand questions? NO! There are some Republicans who have opened their mouths…Rubio, Paul about 2nd Amendment rights. We are mad, you are right. I call my Congressman…it goes nowhere…nothing happens. I get calls from the RNC for $$$…they already collect a salary…to do what..defend and protect the Constitution…and they want MORE.
With this 24 hours news cycle…we are bombarded with news/actions/policies that are against our Bill of Rights. We watch our service people die when they could have been saved…MURDER. We have to pay for abortion on demand…MURDER. We have to pay for sex education of children…ON OUR DIME. Federal gasoline taxes go up…who is there to represent us…NO ONE…and we are mad…and yes full of piss and vinegar because no one will help us. We are without a leader…a visionary. McConnell is a dismal failure as is Boehner and company.
So…unless we get a visonary…or the Second Coming is about to happened…stick a fork in the USA…we are done. We need a person that can keep it simple and easy to understand that everyone in the USA has become a victim of this president and his cabinet.
And many more.
I do not think that word means what you think it means.
Really? Please educate me.
Wait, there are psychotic right wingers on the internet now?
If you’re taking pleasure in their bilious outrage, then that’s your schadenfreude. But it’s not theirs.
That’s what I thought it was. I may have made a grammatical error; hopefully you can find it within yourself to look past it.
Actually, I was taking pleasure in it.
Anyway, I think I probably owe you a more straightforward answer. I used to take pleasure in this sort of reaction, but after a while I realized these people are really fucking crazy. These are the same kinds of people who think that guy made up finding the kids in his driveway after Sandy Hook.
I used to laugh at them, but now they just frighten me.
Then that would be schnitzerfreude

I think the two feelings aren’t mutually exclusive.
Looks more like Pissenmönen . Possibly Arschschmerz .
Who’s a good dog?! Who’s a good wittle doggie?! YOU , you’re a goowittledoggie…

Right now you are down and out, and feeling kind of crappy.
And when I see how sad you are, it kind of makes me happy .

Ha, I love this. References to Alinsky, radical Marxism, gifts to people, and doubling down on the 47% comments. Those people really don’t want to win another presidential election, do they? I welcome and encourage them to continue believing in their fantasy
