Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsDear ODS sufferer: You just wasted a decade of you life. From DailyKos
Lots of you continue to get unhinged emails from people on Facebook, your drunk uncle, and various Tea Party relatives. Here's a gentle response to them....
Pretty soon Obama will be gone and you will have to face up to the fact that you will have lost a whole decade of your life passing around conspiracy theories and whipping yourself into a frenzy of hatred. All of you lost friends, severed relationships with family members, and some of you even lost your job or your marriage due to your unhinged behavior.
You lost that decade wailing about Obama the gay Communist Muslim narcissist dictator who was going to let the UN invade America and various hoaxes like "death panels," birth certificates, Iraq's WMDs, and the "Ground Zero Mosque" (remember how you wasted two years of your life over that?). Just think of what you could have accomplished if you hadn't wasted all that time. You could have gotten a college degree, you could have written a book, you could have run your first marathon, you could have built a boat and sailed it around the world. You could learned to speak another language - oh wait, you never would have done that.
You ODS sufferers are assholes.

(18,662 posts)4. That's what's odd...
I'm certain people who make such insidious statements know every president in the last 75 years played the links, but they seem to be parroting an excerpt they heard on prime time Fox News, but are unable to convey the reason for rage. They should leave it to the professionals.
