Just Spotted a New Freeper Malapropism
Regarding Al Franken's victory:

"A darkness upon the land. . .

Al Franken (D-MN). We’ve reached the bottom of the barrow, scraped it, and this floated up."

I guess that barrow was left upright in the rain...

Also noted this. Not so silly, but spells out the Freeper philosophy.

"FU, American electorate."

Reminds me of why I became a liberal.

1. A barrow is also a grave...
Changes the meaning a little, I think.

4. It is also...
Edited on Tue Jun-30-09 05:39 PM by JuniperLea
a male hog castrated before sexual maturity.

Could even mean a costermonger... a hawker of fruit or vegetables.

34. Hmmm... and a grave left upright in the rain could catch all kinds of bad things in it
like... rain???

:wtf:

On second thought, never mind. Trying to understand Freeper Haiku is like trying to understand someone in the middle of an aneurysm.

23. Nothing, exactly...
Just looking at it from a view that it is still a totalitarian, right-wing state and it may be the only place where the freeps can call home.

33. So don't you think the poor folks of Belarus have already been through enough?
The only demographic who truly deserve this are the benighted or the mentally challenged who voted for Bush*... Especially those who repeated the abomination in 2004. They were too incapable, uninformed or moranic to have learned... :eyes: x( :grr:

35. Oh good gravy... yes I do.
I guess I should have said north Korea... but belarus was the first that came to mind. Next time I'll say that the freeps should all go there instead of belarus.

:hi:

36. LOL. But you know that isn't going to happen. The Freeps are scared witless of North Korea...
Madeline Albright engaged with them, trying to head off a nuclear threat. But the Bushies were so afraid to engage in unilateral talks with them that they did nothing at all. And, after all, North Korea was a "Clinton issue," like Osama bin Laden and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, so they ignored all three of these world crises completely. And that certainly worked for us... :eyes: :grr:

How about the Gulag? There's nobody there to piss off... ;)

Rhiannon :hi:

25. Thank you.
It feels good to be on the road to recovery, (I'm a former Freeper-type, gave up on Republicanism a few years back) and these forums help.

22. No they didn't... BushCo is out of office...
And McCain couldn't even muster a good cheat... if there had been any cheating, I would think the loud mouthed GOPers would have made sure Franklin didn't get seated... they whined real loud, but didn't have a chance against truth.

19. That "FU American electorate" ...



was AWOL Monkey Boy's guiding philosophy for eight years. And he carried it out with great zeal.

29. And now for something completely different...
A Freeper who actually makes some sense, here contradicting conspiracy babble of some sort:

"Really? While I agree that ACORN probably got every black voter in Minnesota to vote for Franken, all 10 of them, I don't believe it quite has the power you claim! The election was about the performance of one George W. Bush's 8 years in office and it had unfortunate results for Norm Coleman as well as John McCain and Sarah Palin. That was a fact and nothing more than that is fact!"
