I'm sorry to anyone who didn't vote for that fucking scumbag. You don't deserve this. As for the rest, the dumbasses who voted for that piece of human garbage and the ones who couldn't get off their lazy asses to vote, they can go fuck themselves. They've lost their right to complain about any shit that bastard pulls in the future. They have sealed their fate and I don't feel sorry for them.

My sympathies to those who worked their asses to try to stop this. I live in South Carolina, and this we are your future as far a labor issues go. I am sorry you are headed down this road. To the rest, I say, "Bed. Made. Lie."

(36,063 posts)We did incredibly good things, today.
If the rest of the country isn't too much in denial that THEY COULD HAVE DONE IT BETTER, they'll look at what we did. They'll learn from it and do better.
Remember the first battle of Bull Run? The enemy WON, but didn't win the war
Remember Pearl Harbor? The enemy won, but didn't win the war
Remember 911? The enemy won, but it hasn't won the war.
That's how things work. Write less, read more. We did many things right, we could have done many things better. LEARN from our experience.

(7,596 posts)...deserve nothing but contempt. As do the lazy assholes who didn't vote at all.
And I would say the same for my state (Florida) if it happened here.

You'd think those posting on DU would realize they are insulting their own when they indulge in regional insults...

(68,918 posts)voted for Barrett. You are completely out of line. Shame on you.
BlueStater
(7,596 posts)...the morons outnumber the "good dems" in your state by quite a bit. Sorry.
ScreamingMeemie
(68,918 posts)And this coming from someone who lives in Florida. *snort* I think you should save your idiotic posts for your own backyard.
BlueStater
(7,596 posts)Apparently, you never even read what I wrote. I SAID I won't feel the slightest bit of sympathy for the dumbshits who voted for Walker or the lazy asswipes who couldn't get off their keisters to vote when that bum inevitably screws them over.
As for your comment on Florida, am I supposed to be offended? I have Rick Scott as my governor and Marco Rubio as one of my senators. I'm perfectly aware that there are a lot of morons in my state. So bash it to your heart's content. I have no state pride.
cwydro
(51,308 posts)in so many ways.
Grow up.
BlueStater
(7,596 posts)I CLEARLY differentiated between people who voted for Barrett and made an effort to get rid of Walker and the imbeciles who voted for that slimey scumbag, as well as the ones who couldn't get off their asses to even vote at all, in my original post. I made sure to do this yet you apparently only read the headline and choose to act like I insulted every single person in the state. That's your own problem because I never did that.
I'm from Florida and a lot of people in my state are morons. I freely admit this. I don't take it as a personal insult like you do when folks from my state are called idiots because I know a lot of them actually are. If they weren't, I wouldn't have Rick Scott as my governor right now.

(114 posts)Caught the tail end of the post-Wisconsin recall election on Fox News, hosted by Brett Baier.... he stridently proclaimed that this was "a victory for grass roots conservatives" over big labor. What a crock of shit.... thanks to our wonderful Supreme Court, the hard right can now outspend everyone else and them proclaim a "grass roots" conservative victory in elections such as this one. Ugh.... I want to puke.
BTW, FU Fox "News".

(665 posts)This is a really shitty post.
This fucked up situation was brought to you by the SCOTUS 5 who ruled on Citizens United. Because of that, Walker and the super PACs behind him had at least 10 times the money to get their message out.

(7,596 posts)Last night was a horrible night; one of the worst this country has seen in years and I had to left off steam to release the huge amount of rage that was built up inside of me.
I don't know why they should get "demoralized further" when my post wasn't even directed towards them. It was made for the fools who voted for Walker and against their own best interests, as well as the ones who didn't even vote at all.

(22,298 posts)No wonder you have no clue what it's like to have to really fight for what you believe in & for every vote, & then have to deal with crappy OPs like yours.

(10,718 posts)...but I suppose we're all entitled to our views (which is also my "big picture" view of the recall).
BlueStater
(7,596 posts)Sometimes, I think it's good to release a little anger to let off steam. Last night was a travesty and I couldn't possibly hide the way I was feeling at that very second.

(3,003 posts)...your post was flowery compared to the post I left after Ted Kennedy's old seat went to a Republican back in 2010! I'm still pissed at Mass. for that.

Wisconsin has joined the mean idiotic red ranks now.
It's turning into a southern state.. so weird.

Canuckistanian
(42,290 posts)Sure, they knew they didn't like a recall without proven criminal wrongdoing.
But I believe in my heart of hearts that they didn't realize the implications of keeping a scumbag like Walker in power. And the money and power that was shamelessly used to buy their vote. I really thought they'd know better with their history of union activism and the benefits that flowed from it.
But to blame them is useless. Education and involvement is the key.
I'm not worried about the upcoming General Election.
But, damn, Wisconsinites need to learn the consequences of their actions, no matter how insignificant it seems at the time.

(117 posts)I was so overwhelmed by depression, rage, sadness, etc when the recall was over and that piece of shit thug Walker won. I get so sick of stupid shit for brains rednecks thinking that being a "good christian" means youre obligated to vote republican even if the asshole you are voting for is satan himself. The republicans have succeeded in brainwashing millions of stupid people into doing everything they are told to do no matter how evil it is. I agree everyone that voted for Walker can go fuck themselves. I'm very pissed at the DNC and Debbie Wasserman Schultz for the jack shit they did for the recall. She should be fired and the DNC should apologize to everyone in Wisconsin for gross incompetence.

Agreed....Debbie Wasserman Schultz needs to go.
