The “Hissy Fit, Toddler Tantrum” Vote

The analysis of this year’s election will continue for some time to come, but last night on FoxNews channel (Yeh, I tuned in for election coverage sporadically), Juan Williams (Juan Williams!?! Yeh, I know. I was shocked. *heh* ) commented on something from the exit polls that caught my ear. He noted that among those who voted for Obama, when issues were examined granularly (my short hand for his long-winded explanation) there was a strong evidence that the vast majority of folks who voted for Obama didn’t actually agree with him on the issues.

Williams attributed this to an anti-Bush, anti-Republican protest vote, and I agree that it looks that way. There is probably also an element of flat-out ignorance of the candidates’ stands, their histories and records involved as well. Put together, these elements spell voters voting against McCain for irrational reasons: ignorant mental/emotional toddlers having a hissy fit with the power of the vote in their hands. Dumbasses.

THIS is why democratic governance is so dangerous, as yesterday demonstrated so graphically. Putting the power of governance in the hands of the ignorant, immature, venal, self-lobotomized masses is no improvement over rule by an aristocracy. Let me remind you once again of the central danger of democracy (and one of the reasons the Founders eschewed such a thing in favor of a representative republic):

“In a democracy (”rule by mob”), those who refuse to learn from history are in the majority and dictate that everyone else suffer for their ignorance.”-third world county’s corollary to Santayana’s Axiom

If it’d help you remember, have it tattooed backwards on your forehead. *heh* I may have to have T-Shirts made of it subtitled, “Welcome to The Obamanation.”

Break Out the Black Arm Bands?

It seems my dystopian view of our society is warranted. I said,

“…since the vast lot of folks going to the polls today are exceedingly stupid, lazy and greedy sheeple who have cheerfully given their minds over to Academia Nut Fruitcakes to be lobotomized and souls over to the Mass Media Podpeople Hivemind to be posessed, we may well see a super majority of socialist tyrants in Congress and a flat-out corrupt Chicago machine Marxist in the Oval office.”

And indeed, it appears that, despite a Dhimmicrappic controlled Congress with the lowest approval rating in my lifetime, Dhimmicrappic policies that directly led to the recent financial burnout and a presidential candidate that exit polls in critical “battleground” states indicated is NOT in agreement with the professed values of voters, exceedingly stupid, lazy and greedy sheeple have given nearly complete control of the federal reins of power to a bunch of socialists and outright Marxists to work their magic destruction powers upon American society.

Can America survive four years of such a combo? Yes. But can it survive and then regain its strength? Maybe not. No wonder so many of our “not-friends” among foreign powers have been so elated at the prospect of surrender monkeys throwing their wrenches in the works of the American engine.

Buy gold. Learn Polish. Stockpile food (until the commisars send troops to make you share your cookies with the grasshoppers). This can’t be good. No matter how much I appreciate being proven right about the outright stupidity and cupidity of the American sheeple, it’s a bitter pill to swallow just to realize that so very many fellow citizens are so utterly stupid and venal.

There is one ray of hope here, maybe two. Given the political situation to come in Washington, even with the cover of the Mass Media Podpeople Hivemind, it will be difficult to completely obscure the disasters that will ensue from the policies Obama and Pelosi and Reid have advocated, should they make any real attempt to implement them (and why would they not, given the successes of their lies to date?).

Oh, well. Life goes on. Until it sto
