Freeps VILE Conclusions On How Sandy Impacts Election [View all]

The OP thinks God's helping Romney out because people in the storm's path, being without power, will be forced to listen to conservative talk radio. Seriously...

...Without electricity, many people will choose to stay in their homes or dank emergency shelters. Without working televisions, they'll drag out the extra blankets and fire up the furnace or the fireplace while they listed to the RADIO for news and emergency updates.

Yes, radio. Many homes still have some battery-powered radios, some attached to emergency flashlights, with which they will listen attentively since the batteries on their laptops and cell phones won't function very long without recharging.

Some undecideds and even a few frustrated liberals will sit through shows like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham and possibly hear, for the first time, about stories the mainstream media has ignored or pooh-poohed and could inspire a few of them to not vote for four more years of Obama. Even if they are just miffed enough to not vote at all, that's probably a win for Romney.


It's like they don't know us at all, man! The responses are golden; A perfect little selection of the ugly on the other side of the aisle.

We have the bigot-

"What? No power? No TV? No Oprah? No View? And just what am I supposed to do for the next few days? Can't even charge up my Obamaphone! An' the 7-11 ain't accepting EBT cards. The hell? Obama...Obama sucks!

and the, um,...bigot-

Maybe Obama’s voters will be too busy looting to vote.


The poor student of science-

I prefer to think of it as God conducting an object lesson in exactly who really controls the ocean levels.


The even meaner poor student of science-

...These sodomite baby killers should be on their knees repenting for the way that they live. Bad storms have happened in many states with very sad results.....but this is the worst storm ever experienced in the the U.S.A. and to me it's a sign of the retribution for the way things have been going in our country.


The hateful-

Speaking of wash, it looks like NYC received a power wash and a blow dry. Hopefully, it gets rid of the pee smell.


And the oblivious-

To: OrangeHoof
No, I think it helps Obobo. Look for his encouraging words everyday. I expect to see him passing out relief supplies too.


(Why would anyone expect less of a president?)
