Earlier in the week at election day, conservatives were bettin' the farm on what went down in my home state, even to the point where they called Cuccinelli vs McAulleffe as the "Battle for the soul of the nation" and other hyperbole that sounds nice and dramatic on talk radio.
Well, the Cooch couldn't quite pull it off. The usual reactions happened of course; accusations of the left rolling in their "hordes" (never minding the talk show and radio blitz on the right as well as people like Mark Levin, who cried the yummiest tears especially when he bawwwwed about there being "Nothing extreme about Cuccinelli!", holding rallies down here in the old dominion), accusations that Libertarian candidate Terry Sarvis was put in as a plant (once again dredging that old Democrat/Republican adage that only THEY are entitled to votes, no other party), the usual stuff.
Then a couple days later we find that the administration, not quite satisfied with enough government in our lives, decides that not only are restaurants forbidden from using trans fats in foods, but now even private ******** citizens shouldn't be allowed to use them! Classy, Obama admin, classy.
What's the right wing's reaction to THIS? Well what do you freaking thing? Big government in our lives, blah blah blah. Okay, fine, they're not incorrect.
But then I remember, wasn't the soul of the nation on this election day riding on the election of a man who attempted in his time to dictate what sex you can have with your signifigant other, in private?
A man who tried to revive a puritannical law JUST THIS YEAR?!
Maybe it's old hat to shout it, but hey GOP, maybe we'll believe you're fighting the good fight to get government out of our lives when you stop backing things like this bullcrap!
Discuss; where the hell I'm wrong, supposedly.
