Freeper thread: "do you feel the fear?"

[scheming daemons]

They are predicting riots if Obama wins (and more violence if he loses)


The only violence I'm concerned about is freepers becoming so distressed at the prospects of losing that they carve letters into their own faces.

1. Laugh or cry....laugh or cry....Bwahahahahaha!! Laugh it is.

:rofl:

[lady raven]

8. I'm just laughing hearing that the economy is in taters!

Do we get fries with that?

[undeterred]

18. I would like some tater tots for the economy please.

[volstork]

33. "Gimme some of your tots!"

"No! Get your own! These are going to the Bailout-- don't you know the economy is in TATERS?!"

[jberryhill]

49. Reckon I'll have me the big-uns

MMm Hmm..

[CitizenLeft]

52. ROTFL!

Thanks for that little detail! :rofl:

[Quantess]

53. New meaning to "economy in taters"

A whole $1.50 at a time!

[HopeFor2006]

2. They need to "get over it"

[Elle1993]

3. two words:

Move on

[msallied]

4. I have a feeling they will be sorely disappointed...

I predict no violence. I think that such an overwhelming majority of people will be celebrating that it will neutralize the whackjob minority who are typically are all hat and no cattle.

I remember a mass blackout in NYC a few years back and how everyone was shocked over the fact that there was no violence or looting, even though the whole city was out of power for a couple days. I have a feeling this will be similar. People are expecting violence, but it ain't gonna happen. Human beings will be in charge November 4th. The ghouls will crawl back under their rocks.

[renie408]

5. Yeah. It's the Obama camp's charges of racism that are responsible

not the knuckle dragging freaks who have come out and said, "I am not voting for that nigger." Or the McCain campaign blatantly encouraging people to think that Obama is a muslim and a terrorist.

No, there isn't any REAL racism...no way.

[bunkerbuster1]

6. A reminder--two liberals have already been murdered by a Freepig

In case anyone's forgotten:

[Lorien]

7. Fear and hatred is all they've EVER had! n/t

[Ferret Annica]

9. One of Jimmy's rules is no insurrection or civil war talk

From the look of that thread, the rules on that are just so much blow-by to the freeper guys.

[Clio the Leo]

10. WHY do they think there would be riots if we win?

I dont get it? Do these people not know what a riot is? I mean, unless they're couting victory celebrations which turn ugly (like when a team wins a sports championship.) Why would people RIOT if they were happy?

I esp. like their line, "The reasons for this fear are many, but it has been spread by the rancor of this election. By the division of the two camps of thought, and by the media and the Obama camp with their constant charges of racism."

Name me ONE time the Obama camp has charged racism? ONE TIME.

Never happened.

[NOLALady]

27. I get it.

They expect those who are unhappy with the Obama win to riot.

[Clio the Leo]

30. So? It will look like an episode of Cops then?

With Bubba and his brother, also named Bubba, brawling in the front yard. Eventually they'll get so drunk they'll just pass out.

Please.

[twistedliberal]

11. Oh, that's gooooood....

"So we face, as a country, an uncertain future. With the economy in taters, and the troubling divide among our countrymen and those wishing to see the downfall of this nation, the future is grey but is a time for all Americans to stand together as one."

OMG!!!!11!!1 THE ECONOMY IN TATERS!!

:rofl:

[Quantess]

54. This little bird told 'em the economy is in taters!

[Oak2004]

71. Oh my! I've got one of those little guys on my desk right now

working on his stick pile (which occupied about a third of my desk), rather than swimming in any soup :)

Yes, a tangent, but as the pet of a Quaker Parrot, I can't help but recognize my master's species :)

[Ikonoklast]

59. I' m rich!! I'm rich, I tell you!!! Hahahhahaaaaa!!!

I knew that sooner or later the economy would be in taters!!!

And they're mine, all MINE!!!!! HAHAHHAHAHHAAAA!!!!

[CitizenPatriot]

12. I hope they know what letter to carve

and they manage to carve it correctly.

It's "L" for Liar.

not backward L
not M
not P

L. for Liar.

and from the rest of us, who are dealing with reality, we thank them for being so willing to identify themselves to us from afar -- so we can avoid and take necessary precautions when we must deal with the insane.

[GrizzlyMan]

13. "The economy is in taters"

Really? You don't say. Is it possible these people could be any dumber?

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

38. Taters, LOL - another one for the American Freeptard Heritage Dictionary

[NYC_SKP]

14. Oh, Free Republic, when will thoust learn to spell? Country in taters?!!!

"So we face, as a country, an uncertain future.

With the economy in taters, and the troubling divide among our countrymen and those wishing to see the downfall of this nation, the future is grey but is a time for all Americans to stand together as one..."

:rofl:

[renie408]

20. Mmmm...taters....n/t

[NYC_SKP]

24. Sweet Tater PIE!!!!

I hope they like PIE over at FR, they're gonna have to get used to it...

[renie408]

26. GODDAMIT!! Why didn't I think of that??? n/t

[NYC_SKP]

29. Well, maybe it's cuz you didn't get the memo, re: PIE...

You, I, we all need to have some pie in the house, especially during these final days.

Obama's PIE comments, cryptic at first, become clearer over time; have some pie, no matter how dark the opposition becomes, enjoy the pie, there's a piece of pie for you and everyone and it's as American as, well, you know...

It reminds me, too, of Forrest Gump's friend talking about all the ways to prepare shrimp. The variety, the possibilities, the inclusiveness, the simplicity.

But I digress....I'm going to be getting some major pies next week from Marie Callendars (Key Lime and Banana Creme), but I've got some apple pie handy right now and take a bite now and then.

So, renie408, get thee to the market and stock thy larder with some pies, any pies, any flavor, and know that November 4th we will together as a country enter a new day, nay, a new era...

..yes, that's right, the era of PIE!!!

:patriot:

[renie408]

32. And that just begs me to add....mmmmm...PIE!!! n/t

[BlooInBloo]

15. They must be reading DU.

[salguine]

16. I'm concerned that the Neocons running the government are worried

about massive protests/riots if they manage to steal the election. They didn't bring the 1st Brigade home for crowd control for nothing.

[Ikonoklast]

61. I hope they didn't issue the troops those dreaded

Tater guns.

[gauguin57]

17. I love the Freeper's OP where he brags about his family "building this country."

"I have traced my family on both sides back to the original 13 states. My family has served in our nations military all the way back to the civil war and before. My family helped build this country. ..."

I hope he's not making some point about white Americans building this country, because ... hello? ... does he think African-Americans didn't help build this country, as well (not to mention a whole bunch of immigrants who came here by choice and not by choice)? If so, he'd better get his head out of his heinie!

Another Freeper said the "economy is in taters." TATERS? I didn't know our economy was based on potatoes!

[carnie_sf]

31. My family has served in every conflict

this country has ever been involved in except WWII, and I support Barack O'Bama

[yardwork]

65. Last time I looked civil wars don't usually help build countries.

Anyway, it sounds like my family's been here longer than this loser's. Only the Civil War? Heck, I've got him beat by hundreds of years.

[Mojambo]

19. Fear, hope... It's the same emotion when you're as damaged as those nuts. n/t

[parasim]

21. Well, it seems to me, that either way, that's exactly what they want. Riots.

Despite the fact that there are a some rational thinkers amongst them...

as one of them said "Ya know, somehow I doubt it. The campaigns have dragged on so long and been so contentioius..
No matter what the outcome of the election by Nov. 5 most people are just gonna be so exhausted."

...they are hoping there are riots. They're looking for any reason to hunker down with their AK-47s and dafend thar cuhntreh. Yeehaw!

[Poseidan]

22. their lives revolve around fear

They sin, go to church, sin, go to church, sin, go to church, rinse and repeat. Every time they sin, they become terrified of dying and hell. They get some alleviation from church, but then they sin again, perpetuating the cycle. It is how the church stays in business.

In the State, sin is called crime.

[soothsayer]

23. we should have rioted after the supreme court debacle of the 2000 election.

I still can't figure out why we didn't.

[proud2BlibKansan]

25. They are scary people

I went to Los Angeles Friday to bid a construction project, not far from Martin Luther King Parkway. After looking at the job location and learning that the start date would be Nov. 5, I’ve decided not to bid this job.

[ronnykmarshall]

48. Even with the economy in taters?

He's turning down a job?

[Occam Bandage]

28. "With the economy in taters..."

:rofl:

[Curtland1015]

34. What's taters precious!?

What's taters!?!?!?

[Occam Bandage]

37. ...

[salguine]

39. Okay, that made me blow my tea out of my nose.

[Arugula Latte]

50. AHHHHH! *SNORT*

:spray: :rofl:

That is my new favorite Freepism!

[Left Is Write]

67. If we cast some asparagus along with those taters, we have our veggies for the evening!

[Starry Messenger]

35. Somedays I think that OP is the only true believer with any energy left on that site.

I wonder who this poor guy really is. He keeps trying to rally the war cries:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2116028/posts

Maybe it's actually Jim.

[Malikshah]

36. Wow-- they sure do put the "atshi" in

Batshit crazy over there.

I so want to pump Soviet Music into the site. Maybe start calling everyone else comrade at the DU? Sprinkle Marx and others in our posts.

:)


On edit:_- I got it-- we should remove all avatars and have only one.

with the phrase: OUR FEARLESS LEADER....

Just think... freepers come and see a long line of Putin...oh what fun :)

[jazzjunkysue]

40. Quote of one really ugly racist statement on this Freeper thread (read at your own risk)

"Can we add no government handouts for lazy ho’s who won’t get off their butts and get a job, but keep spitting out illegimate child after illegimate child?"

Like there are no white lazy people having illegitimate children, whatever that means.

Personally, I don't believe a child can be illegitimate, only a lousy parent can be illegitimate.

[Left Is Write]

42. I really, REALLY hate this characterization of welfare recipients.

I don't believe that the majority of welfare recipients are "lazy" people spitting out child after child.

I think most welfare recipients are more like one young couple I know. They have a child. Both the mother and the father work full-time. They work opposite shifts so they don't have to pay for daycare, and they receive assistance to feed their family.

Or one young single mother who used to work for me. She worked two jobs still couldn't make ends meet. She received both WIC and housing assistance, and when she was able, she got a better-paying job and was able to transition out of the assisted housing.

Or the young woman I know whose mother died, resulting in this young woman taking in her teenage sister, supporting her on less than $20K a year. They received assistance with housing and food also.

Yeah. Such lazy people these folks are, working hard and struggling and accepting the assistance they qualify for. :eyes:

[kwenu]

43. Does Bristol Palin have a job?

[NOLALady]

45. Maybe they were also referring to white people.

Did they say lazy ho's or lazy black ho's?

[yardwork]

47. Are they talking about Bristol Palin, unwed teen mom and high school drop out?

[rvablue]

55. Know I'm supposed to lay off the kids BUT.....

The Republican Vice President nominees daughter is "spitting out" an illegitimate child VERY, VERY SOON!

[yardwork]

63. I think it's ok to mention that when Obama gets blamed for all the other teen births.

[frickaline]

41. My fav from today:

"Ditka would have run we wouldn’t be here."

:spray: :rofl:

[nolabels]

75. Wasn't his bride also arrested for pot a couple times?

It's all so confusing, it seems all that stuff just runs together :shrug:

[Starry Messenger]

44. Projection: so sad...

To: redgolum

They may not even wait until the Inaugeration. That is part of what makes his so serious. We are not dealing with rational people.

46. "The economy in taters!"

A new freeper classic.

[ronnykmarshall]

51. Some one add that the DU dictionary.

It's up there with "morans" and "screwn".

[Quantess]

56. Don't forget "to cast asparagus"

:rofl:

[ronnykmarshall]

57. No WAY???

Oh my god! I missed that one.

[yardwork]

62. How'd you miss that? It's a classic.

Freepers seem to talk about food a lot.

"don't cast asparagus."

"economy in taters" - is this some kind of new currency? Are they measuring out the economy in taters now?

"get a brain, morans"

"this is hugh!!!!" - a regular

Use of the 11111 for !!!!! because the manual dexterity required to hit the cap key is just too much work.

[TwilightGardener]

58. I wish Obama had known that the economy was in taters--

I haven't heard him mention the spud economy once--not mashed, hashed, fried, salad, tots--nothing. His economic advisors really dropped the ball.

[trekbiker]

60. is he saying the economy is Spud'dering to a halt??

[IsItJustMe]

64. LOL You may have a point there.

[Wapsie B]

66. Riots? No. But there'll be a lot of whining I'm sure.

[agentS]

68. The Root had an article about this subject last week.

Of course, the real question is whether or not McCain's remaining white supporters will riot or not.

After reading the Freeper and LGF websites and seeing those Palin rallies and that Skinhead arrest, the answer is drifting more and more from "No" to "Possibly".

It's gonna be a hot Nov.4th. Bring your flak jacket to the polls.

[Raschel]

69. I agree. They're very hateful and fearful. n/t

[I LIKE IKE 61]

70. Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!

I have not laughed like that in some time!!!!

Taters!!!! ROTFLMAO. Hahahahahaha.

Yes they are laughable people and some of them are frightening.

For the economy I say just use garlic and butter or a nice gravy. Fried with ketchup??? :)

Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!

[TheKentuckian]

72. Well, that made me nearly an evil brand of angry

it was funny at first but they have an outright desire for murder and fascism.

[MrSlayer]

73. Some real insanity over there.

I don't foresee any rioting at all under any circumstance and these people are acting as if it's imminent.

[Amonester]

74. I refuse to click on the link provided.

It's a waste of bandwidth.
