Just in case you thought the Republicans might, you know, wake up to reality and try to deal with it, they go ahead and start petitions to try and create the reality they want

It's a very small and retarded % of the US population signing those petitions. Butt hurt and ignorant people, who are fortunately a dying breed and lost in the New America which has rejected their existence.
I think I respect the crazy son of a bitch who said he was gonna kill himself if Obama got re-elected and did (Leaving a single note saying "Fuck Obama") more then these people.

Saw an article that says there's a guy who specializes in "I'm moving to Canada because soandso won" and he says all of the time he's been working only like 5 people actually moved to Canada.

Let's remember that GA is a state of nearly ten million and thirty thousand isn't even a percent if you round up. You could go anywhere in the world and find less of a percent of people that believe something completely idiotic.
Everyone that believes in secession could move to one state and still be in the vast minority. And that's including the states with semi-valid secession movements that aren't because of a presidential election.

Jedi is like the #5 religion in Great Britain.

Most people think that's a funny joke. If I didn't have a respect for census-taking I'd probably do something similar.

I don't think people who put Jedi as their religion is any less serious than the guys who want to secede. Like I said an article talks about a guy specializes in getting people to Canada but over the years very few people actually wanted to move to Canada even though these claim they're going to move there because the US sucks.

What really amazes me is how pig-headed these people (and a lot of Republican politicians) are being about the loss. It's simple: MOST PEOPLE DON'T AGREE WITH YOU. Get over it. Adapt or die out

If the Republicans had candidates that weren't super rich, religious zealots, bigots, or just plain idiots then the Democrats would be in trouble. Just look at how close this was and with the Democrats in a pretty crummy position going into the election. There are trends in the youth coming up in this country and the Democrats are doing a much better job identifying what they want and following suit. Republicans have decent points on a lot of topics and if they'd focus more on fleshing out these points with actual plans rather than digging deeper into holes that promote ignorance then they'd capture more of the youth, minority, and female vote.
The party is just too selfishly male-centric, too old, and too white.

The sad part is that many think that Rubio is going to solve all of their problems. You know, just like how Steele got the black vote for the GOP?

Really, just browse through Fark Politics. Probably one of the best news sites out there. Seriously.
I mean, you can't
make this shit up!
