Righties go nuts.

Plagerized from another forum but explains nicely how righties are reacting to their epic fail..

I watched the coverage of the election while at the same time monitoring a forum that is frequented mostly by what I can now (after last night's display) only call extreme right lunatic fringe. When the election was over and Obama had won I read their posts and witnessed the most deplorable demonstration of immature and irrational lack of grace, melodrama, calls to arms, hair pulling, covering with ashes, soul mutilating, wailing and gnashing of teeth that I would never have imagined could be possible to see in any Americans, not even from the lunatic fringe. It was positively shocking to see so many of them, en masse, go ballistic and off the deep end like that. America is dead, the sun has gone super nova, the sky is falling, the rest of the world hates America and it's the end of the world for them. I was totally dumbfounded by their reactions and was tempted to tell them to just put themselves out of their misery right now to get it over and done with, but my compassion got the better of me and I logged out instead. All I can say is if that's the kind of people who were backing Romney, then thank God the more sensible half of the American populace voted for Obama.
