The right-wing-nut-o-sphere has been losing its collective mind since Election Night. But nothing is more entertaining (and in some cases, downright frightening) than the reactions of the really bat-shit-crazy conservatives on the right-wing blogs.
I spent some time on Election Night at the Little Green Freakshow and over at the Freepers' clubhouse reading the reactions of their users to the results of Election Day. It isn't something that most Americans should do. If you can take reading through some pretty vile, hateful, and venomous posts, you will find a few nuggets of humor.
The results of my search are below the fold and, in some cases, beyond the pale.
While Mr. Johnson ("Charles" on LGF) really does make a good effort to run a nice website, you have to take into account the audience he attracts. When the election was finally called for Obama a little after 11PM Eastern time (8PM Pacific), he posted a gracious congratulatory message to the President-Elect. The problem was that he opened it to comments from the "lizards" - some of whom go there to defecate. While there were a few (very few) users who were just as gracious as Senator McCain and Charles Johnson, most of the posts in reply to this "congrats" were just rotten.
The Freepers, however, make the lizard-brains at LGF look like members of the Diplomatic Corps. I was able to stomach the site only long enough to copy one post and one of the replies to it. The rest of that site needs to be run through a sewage treatment plant before being presented for public consumption. It is a revolting pile of parrot droppings.
And now, without further blather from my keyboard, I give you some right-wing reaction to the election of Barack Obama as the next President of the United States of America. My comments are in italics and appear only here on DKos.
Let us begin with Mr. Johnson's initial statement, which prompted the replies below (all times are Pacific):
President Barack Obama
Politics | Tue, Nov 4, 2008 at 8:10:15 pm PST
Barack Hussein Obama is the next President of the United States, and we extend our sincere congratulations.

And here are just a few of the responses. Names have been deleted to lessen the embarrassment.

I will extend my insincere congratulations.
Is there anything sincere about you other than your hatred?
nyc r*****k 11/04/08 8:13:20 pm
and now the tears rolling down my face.
Don't hang yourself - give the man a chance!
Irene N** 11/04/08 8:15:12 pm
I think I'll go moonbat: He's not my president.
Goodnight, Irene. We'll wake you when it's over. In about 8 years.
n*****a 11/04/08 8:16:29 pm
Sorry, Charles, while I wish him no harm, I will not consider him my President. Ban me if you must , but that is my stance!
If he's not your president, then this is not your country, hence you're an illegal alien and must leave the USA immediately.
D*****Sage 11/04/08 8:16:38 pm
For the first time in my adult life I'm ashamed of my country!
And for all of your life your country has been ashamed of people like you.
E******2517 11/04/08 8:16:44 pm
Fuck him. Charlton Heston is my president.
Spoken with all of the intelligence of a chunk of ammunition. Be careful when cleaning your handguns, Skeezix...

We won NC
1,942,000
1,919,000
And it felt GOOD. I can sleep tonight.
Anybody else here wanna break it to him? I just can NOT bring myself to do it.
Dar ul H**b 11/04/08 8:18:34 pm
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
So sorry, but it your fellow Republicans lost that fight tonight, Rev. King.
It would be impossible to pervert the meaning of Dr. King's immortal words more than you have with that statement. You are an embarrassment to human beings everywhere.

When will the hammer & sickle get added to the flag?
It's already on YOUR flag. Go salute it.
her*****tics 11/04/08 8:22:00 pm
I'm getting my children dual citizenship in Chile. Its over. My family has been in this country since 1650. And now we're seriously contemplating leaving.
Don't let the door hit you...
Obama is not worthy of the White House. He bought the election. The MSM is complicit in his election. He came to power through fraud, ACORN, lies and deception.
Yes, and Rush Limbaugh is a commie pinko liberal. How does the CIA figure into your conspiracy theory?
Sorry, I cannot congraduate him on his election. He wasn't elected.
De Nile - not JUST a river in Africa.

so how long before dissent becomes illegal, how long until the detention camps are up and running?
Did you miss the Bush administration ENTIRELY???

Its F'kn pandamonium on the streets of the Upper West Side.
So get out there and join the celebration! The Eight-Year Nightmare has ended!
Ran********rd 11/04/08 8:24:31 pm
Should I plan on moving? Where can I move to where they would not have problems with a Conservative American? Is there anywhere safe in this world?
After Bush/Cheney, there isn't a safe place on this planet for people like you. Check out the headlines from newspapers all over the world - the entire planet is REJOICING over the results of this election!
J*****r 11/04/08 8:24:43 pm
Nothing will ever convince me that this person nothing but a worthless, self serving Marxist piece of crap who got what he had by exploiting white guilt and throwing everyone who ever meant anything to him under the bus.
Don't hold back - tell us how you really feel.
He's my President. But I spit on him, and everything he stands for.
There, I knew you could. Your family must be so PROUD of you for being their first to graduate from the 6th grade.

How is the Country to survive when half of it's citizens are idiots?
The country will not only survive, but it will certainly thrive under the leadership of President Barack Obama and likely take very good care of the idiots who voted for Bush and/or McCain.
Ko**********w 11/04/08 8:29:43 pm
I just hope it is only 0bama supporters in the cities that get nuked, but it won't be.
And I wonder if I'll be able to walk in some parts of this country openly as a Jew, with kippa and tzitzit.
Or maybe a yellow star will make it OK.
You seriously need psychiatric help. Jews voted overwhelmingly for Barack Obama.
s****s 11/04/08 8:30:45 pm
I fear that bigger government will intrude on our lives in the next 4 years. I fear that civil liberties will be cut for those that don't toe the Obama line. Government will determine what the pursuit of Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. The fairness doctrine will curtail free speech, The right to own fire arms will disappear into a "home guard". Wealth, hard earned money, will be redistributed.
Just about all of that already happened under George W. Bush. This new president was elected to correct that error.
k****r 11/04/08 8:32:19 pm
This sucks. Think of all the moonbats moving back from Canada and France now. Ugh.
The moonbats never left the country. We all stayed and voted for Obama. And we apparently OUTNUMBER you.
Er********mia 11/04/08 8:35:18 pm
CONSTITUTION FIRST will be my motto. I fear for the integrity of that document.
After Bush shredded that sacred document, wiped his ass with the remains, and burned the whole stinking pile - NOW you decide to worry about it? Where have you BEEN, moron?
*******************************************
And now, the only part of the Freeper blog I could bring to you that did not make me want to stagger off to a corner of the room and vomit. You really have GOT to laugh at this desperate asshole.
2008 Presidential Election ... chaos ... anarchy

US Constitution
Tenth Amendment
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
2008 Presidential Election
Phase II
An Indonesian citizen, an illegal alien, with strong ties to corruption in Chicago, Illinois and the Middle East, has apparently won the US general election. Barack Obama, who stole the nomination for the Democrat Party using tactics of diversions, lies, illegal campaign donations, voter fraud and help from idiots like Nancy Pelosi and Howard Dean, is trying to steal the election. State officials, lacking in integrity and knowledge of the US Constitution, and federal and state laws, allowed Obama to remain on the ballot despite warnings and compelling evidence that Obama is an Indonesian citizen, and no legal evidence that Obama is a US citizen. These state officials will have a day of reckoning and will be subject to removal from office and/or
prosecution.
And the thoughtful, reasonable, intelligent reply to the thoughtful, reasonable, intelligent post above:
To: s*****r
We're all screwed.
The best thing we can do is to move into the mountains like those kids from "Red Dawn."
F#cking communists have taken over our Republic thanks to the treasonous idiots in Florida, Virginia, North Carolina,
Colorado, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Nevada.

If these weren't real people typing this shit, I'd be riding the ROFL copter. But you can't make this stuff up! Even the SNL crew couldn't invent this. So, while there's some good entertainment value here, I believe that we can all learn a little about the level of resistance which President Obama will be facing from the far right - and how intense his detractors will be over the smallest of imperfections.
Our REAL work has now just begun. We have a nation to rebuild (both figuratively and literally), converts to win over from the Dark Side, and change to be made on the grandest of scales. I'm hoping that we can also pursue a few criminals while we're at it. Wouldn't Karl Rove look SPLENDID in a bright-orange jumpsuit accessorized with chrome leg irons and handcuffs?
Yours in Well-Deserved VICTORY,
