There was. Why didn't you look before you asked the question?

Absolutely hilarious coming from the person who posted this after things did not go exactly how he wanted in the 2010 election.

Last night wasn't a Conservative loss, it was the loss of a nation, and I no longer have any hope that this nation will survive the radical assault it's under.
Last night, it wasn't the Conservatives who won, it was the Leftist radicals who began their assault full-force in '08 and will continue the assault to finish us off in the very near future.

I am also a sort of "short timer", but the chances are that I will be here in two years. But it doesn't matter anymore. I think I'll just stay home rather than vote anymore, and I will now begin the process of getting ready to retire by starting the company shut-down in the next year or so and put all my money and assets in safe places.
In short, I will soon no longer be a taxpayer because I will no longer have a business that pays employees or contributes to the economy in any way. That's the way that the people of America showed me last night that they wanted things to be, so I will happily give it to them and let them muddle through whatever future they have without any help from me.

Last night was the night that America lost the rest of it's self respect.

Are you going to make good on your promise and stay home on election day this time?!?!?!?!

ROTFL! There it is!

Give me a freaking break, what a load of BS.

War on women as equals
War on minorities as humans
War on science as common sense

Our entire eastern seaboard is being pummeled by one of the worst storms in modern history yet, the climate-change deniers claim, "of course it's natural, no need to change any of our habits."

Somebody will notice your response because it was short and not much more than a knee jerk reaction. Everybody knows that knee jerk reactionary types make the best partisans.... Oh, I'm not taking it out on you, srt8. I'm just a little dismayed at a comment made above. Sorry about that...

It is what it is. Although knowing that all these pretend wars are a load isn't partisan imo.

The partisans have gotten so good at it that they now have come to believe their own hyperbole. It's a stupid situation. A little more honesty in this process is badly needed. I wonder what it's going to take to get that?

My apologies, you made a very valid point in your way, and I chose a much less diplomatic manner, but I never claimed to be a diplomat. My hat is off to you.

Ah... No worries. I was just tired and a little grumpy.

Cheers,
