IF ROMNEY WINS I AM LEAVING!

[Pecospete666]

If Romney wins I will move to U.K.

If that fucking Idol Worshiping maggot wins I’m leaving! The fucking liar will say anything to win!

What’s a nice neighborhood?

Uruguay is suppose to the Switzerland of South America

Wow, I didn’t think there could be even more reason to hope Obama wins.

[mick]

If Pecospete comes here I’m bogging off back to Austria.

[HelloMabel]

Coincidentally, I was studying in Austria in 2004 during the whole Bush/Kerry debacle. I swore that if Bush won a second term, I’d stay put and never go home. *

This is a thing with us. We say this every four years, you may have noticed. JetBlue even decided to capitalize on it:

If Pecospete wins I’m moving in with Romney.

There’s a plot for a sitcom in there somewhere.

They seem like very hospitable folks – I bet Ann would even let you ride her horse.
(Don’t count on it.)

Well, she might… as long as you’re not A GAY wanting to get married and/or pro-choice or something ghastly like that!

[HelloMabel]

Right! Or you’re a minority. Or a socialist. (Wait, they think all Europeans are socialists. You’re smegged.)

Actually, just tell them you’re one of us 47% who back Obama because we’re all on welfare. Then you won’t need the horse; you can just “ride the government’s coat tails.”

There’s no way Romney can win. No way. I won’t move out, but I will be incredibly embarrassed.

[Jo]

>There’s no way Romney can win. No way. I won’t move out, but I will be incredibly embarrassed

Well, if it does go that way (and I REALLY hope it doesn’t!) we’ve got Cameron :-( so it’s not like we can point the finger!

[Carlito]

If Romney wins I will move to U.K.

Kryten, open communication channels with America…

We don’t want him. Go away. You bred him, you can keep the smegger.

[Pecospete666]

Connell, thats what I like about you, your coherent thought process! Your comment gives me hope the world will end on Dec 21 2012.
If this Maggot wins,the world is in for a huge shit storm! They are sacrificing babies on the altar in Salt Lake City as we speak! Mormons, the Cat’s religion is more coherent than what they practice.

[Phil]

Shit. Polls here are closed so it’s too late to cast my vote for Mitt. :(

[Jo]

Looks like PecosPete is staying put!

[Ian Symes]

FOUR MORE YEARS… of Pecospete being on a different continent to me.

[Pecospete666]

Shit !I was looking forward to becoming an EastEnder!

[srmcd1]

You know, maybe you could hitch a ride on Newt’s rocket to the moon-base.

[si]

So glad Obama won. My dad’s called Mick Bromley, and I mishear the radio at least three times a day at the moment, couldn’t be doing with it for four more years.

[Pecospete666]

I can not believe that 53 million morons voted for Romney! 56mil for Obama.
I think there was massive cheating going on! I saw a electronic voting machine that if you pushed the Obama button, Romney lite up. So the fuckers tried to steal the election but failed. Rupert Murdouch your boy lost so FUCK OFF!

[NoFro]

Yer it is a pretty depressing thought that 53 million people actually voted for Mitt Romney.

[HelloMabel]

Also, California had a chance to abolish the death penalty, and didn’t. :(

Still, mostly good news. Two more states legalized gay marriage, and one even elected our first gay senator. And in Colorado and Washington state you can now legally smoke weed.

[Phil]

>And in Colorado and Washington state you can now legally smoke weed.

Not quite “now,” sadly. It’s still illegal on the federal level. All this did was prove a majority support on the ground…it still has every chance to fail at upper levels.

[anniescribe]

Ian, I’ll cry you a river … from the U.S., where Pete and I are still joined at the figurative citizenship hip. ;-)

(Oh well, Pete and I agree on one thing at least. LOL)

[Ben Kirkham]

So pleased Obama won. He’s an incredibly eloquent, intelligent man. I’m not American, so I don’t know how successful he is as a president, but I think Mitt Romney would have been a disaster. And anyone that believes you can ‘pray the gay away’ deserves no place in politics, in my opinion.

[HelloMabel]

>I’m not American, so I don’t know how successful he is as a president

Here’s a partial list of what he has accomplished: reforming healthcare, getting us (mostly) out of Iraq, signing the Lilly Ledbetter Act for equal pay for women (as the very first official act after being sworn in!) and ending Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. All of that despite one of the houses of Congress being dead set against him. That makes him one of the great all time presidents in my book.

[Ben Kirkham]

Yes, all of the above I can say I agree with. Especially ending Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. It’s like a reward for America after George W Bush (don’t get me started on him), a man who never ceased to amuse me purely for his inability to string a sentence together.

[anniescribe]

Ben, I just hope we don’t go backwards as a nation in four years when Obama is no longer eligible to run. I hope we get someone equally competent to run for that ticket. But this country is odd. :-/

[Ben Kirkham]

I heard a rumour that Hilary Clinton was interested in running for President in four years, but it’s entirely too early to speculate.

[Pecospete666]

There will be new faces come 2016! Hilary Clinton will be senile by then! She probably will not even finish these last four years. It would be a sure win for the party of darkness if they ran her. Though I could see her as proxy for Bill.

[anniescribe]

Well, we know you think women are just proxies for their men anyway, Pete.

[Pecospete666]

“Well, we know you think women are just proxies for their men anyway, Pete.”

Do you have something intelligent to say about Hilary? or you just want to troll me? She will be 69 in 2016. She has done an abysmal job as secretary of state. Her last debacle that she own up to was the Libya ambush on sept 11 2013. She got the job as a reward for not running against Obama. She would be an great asset for the party of darkness

[anniescribe]

Pete, you ignorant slut. ;-)

You’re addressing the wrong thing, yet again. None of those mistakes you claim she made was as a proxy for Bill; she did them on her own, as well as any successes she had. I said nothing about whether she would be a good president or a good candidate on her own; the sole issue was proxyism.

Now, I’m going to go watch some Red Dwarf. Without a man supervising or forcing me, no less.

[Pecospete666]

Manwhore is the correct term slut is for women :€
I was commenting on her performance! nothing to do with Bill ,but I sure she consults with him on all major decisions.

[Ben Paddon]

Actually slut works both ways.

[Jonathan Capps]

I think Hilary would be good, mainly because I can’t see her being so heavy on the drone bombings of civilians. Then again, I get all my US politics opinions from Gregg Proops.

[Ian Symes]

I get mine from fictional characters written by Aaron Sorkin, so at least you’re in the right plane of reality.

[Ben Kirkham]

It’d be a hell of a lot more entertaining if ‘West Wing’ characters actually ran the country.

[Jonathan Capps]

The entire world would be brilliant. Even Republicans are amazing when they’re written by Sorkin.

[Phil]

>Even Republicans are amazing when they’re written by Sorkin.

Unfortunately the same thing can’t be said for news anchors.

[Jonathan Capps]

Newsroom is great, you shit!

EDIT: NEWSROOM, NOT NIGHT.

[Phil]

I gave up on it after the pilot.

Wait, wrong thread.

…I think?

[CackThosePants]

Romney lost because he was a Moomin. Obama won because he was a Sad Sack.

*Raggy Dolls lyrics tweaked ever so slightly……

It’s not much of a life when you’re just a fucking face
Just to be whoever you are is no disgrace
Don’t be scared if you don’t fit in
Look who’s in the arse gravy bin! It’s the G & T’s,
G & T’s Cunts like you and me
G & T’s, G & T’s made imperfectly
So if you got a bump on your nose or a lump on your toes
Do not despair – Be like the G & T’s, and say I just don’t care
Cause G & T’s, G & T’s are happy just to be
G & T’s, G & T’s, CUNTS like you and me!

[Danny Stephenson]

I’m learning TV themes for the piano at DJ, this will be an excellent addition…

[Ben Kirkham]

Which ones have you learnt so far, Danny?

[HelloMabel]

>Raggy Dolls

I am such a massive Neil Innes fan that I actually know this show and song. I’m one of maybe three Americans who do.*

I can play the theme from Innes Book of Records. Lovely tune. Entirely useless at a drunken sing-along.

*Edit: if you don’t count the ex-pats. How rude of me.

Eh?

Just beating a dead horse…

It’s good but it’s not right.

[Jo]

>Just beating a dead horse…

I understand what the GIF is, I don’t know what you’re referring to!

[Blisschick]

Oh…just the whole who won/ who lost thing, who is better/worse. I’m just glad the thing is over. I’ve never been so tired of one election in my entire life, and only too glad to move on.
