"I guess in the next few years there will be many buckets of KFC chicken on the desk in the oval office and watermellon rinds on the floor…"
"An American who wants his country back
Anyone who voted for Osama..I mean Obama is a TRAITOR.
By voting for Obama, liberals demonstraated their hatred frto freedom, and their hatred for America. You have given America over to the Islamofascists"
"Lets have a huge parade…how about on Nov 22…In Dallas….Barack can ride in the back of a convertable with his wife…they could drive by the School Book Depository…yes thats the ticket…"

Heh - I'll never forget my family's and friend's reaction to the election. My second mom felt that Obama's election was fixed and was an insult to women everywhere. My parents were planning to go out to get a license to carry (why, I don't know. Is Obama gonna jump out from behind a bush and mug them?). They were sure my father's business would suffer (why, I don't, after taxes it only makes like $10,000-$15,000 I think). They all took their McCain/Palin signs down because they were afraid of the people out partying because of the election results.
I may not have been pro-Obama, but the level of over-reaction from some of these people is amazing.

Wouldn't expect anything else from a bunch of sore losers. I wonder if these same idiots complain about their children's schools lacking and wanted another bottom of the class president.

Posters here at Mylot or at Foxnews sites have no responsibility to be "fair" or "balanced". Sure, they are saying some pretty vile things, but no worse than what the left has been saying about Prs. Bush or conservatives for years now.
In the end, they say more about themselves than anyone else.

When the liberals say nasty things about the conservatives, it is OK. When others say nasty things about liberals, it is a crime....nothing new there.

From msnbc's discusion site, newsvine:
"True family values" - thanks for the laugh. That WAS meant as a joke, wasn't it? Do true family values include fornication? "
So how are the comments from fox news posters different? How are they different from the krap on the Daily Koss or the Huffington post. You are equating random internet posts with a news agency and it doesn't fly. Just looking to stir up ill will and discontent. Why don't you stick with the BBC.

Neither side is fair and balanced. I just wish that people were smart enough not to buy into that sort of drivel.

Those are just a bunch of morons posting on that site. You can't blame Fox News for the attitudes of a few small minded jerks. If you'd like to push this, I can gladly link you to the comments made by some disgusting hateful liberals on CNN's website that have said much worse things about Bush, McCain, and especially Palin. I can't even repeat the disgusting things those people have said about Sarah Palin.
