Sherrod Brown Reads Our Minds

A fringe benefit of an Obama win would be pointing and laughing at Fox News. Myself, if things go as planned, I plan to block out 12-3 the day after the election day to listen to Limbaugh.

At about 11:30 pm, he told the crowd, they should switch over to Fox News, the network on which the right-leaning O’Reilly hosts a top-rated talk/news show.

A chorus of boos erupted from the crowd. Fox, of course, is vilified by many Democrats, who believe it favors Republicans. Obama himself has gone after the network at times.

‘No, no, bear with me here,’ Brown shouted, as boos continued raining down. ‘No, no, you’ll want to do this. You don’t like Fox, but sometimes Fox has gotta do the right thing, so you’re gonna watch Fox,’ he continued.

‘About quarter till 12 on election night, it’s gonna be Bill O’Reilly sitting there with Sean Hannity,’ he said, drawing another cascade of jeers from the crowd at the mention of another popular conservative Fox host.

‘No, no wait a sec, this is gonna be too much fun. You’re not gonna be booing ‘cause you know what’s coming next. So Hannity – they’re going through all these numbers and Barack’s won California, New York and Illinois and Michigan and Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and all these others. And, you know McCain wins Utah or something,’ Brown said, drawing appreciative laughs and claps from the energized crowd.

‘Then Hannity’s sitting there next to O’Reilly, and they’re looking at each other, and O’Reilly says, ‘You gonna do it?’ And Hannity says, ‘No.’ So O’Reilly – sweat’s coming, tears are coming down his cheeks – you can see ‘em on your flat screen. And O’Reilly says, ‘Well, Ohio went for Barack Obama. He’s gonna be president of the United States!’

    Me, my schadenfreude will be going over to Litte Green Footballs and Freep, and finishing up at NRO.

    Granted, the election ain’t over yet for president (seriously people, we still have to vote for Christ’s sake) but there’s no question the Dems are going to make serious gains in Congress, maybe even getting the magical number 60 in the Senate.

    Good times.

    I’m living for the day that I will get to watch O’Reilly’s face as he forms the words “Senator Al Franken”. And I shall drink deeply of the well of sweetest schadenfreude.

    I’ve been reading this site for quite awhile now, and that’s the funniest thing I have read in ages…well played, Sherrod!

    Damn I can’t wait to see that…I believe the words Uber Hissy Fit would about cover it.

    They’ll storm off before they say it and everyone knows it. A bigger pair of bully/cowards you will ever meet.

    2 Democratic Party presidents in the last 40 years and you guys insist on acting like you’re still in high school about the possibility of getting the third one. Try to act like you’ve been there before for a change.

    You cannot have missed that point accidentally.

    Hmm – Nixon – Republican – resigned in disgrance

    Ford – filled out Nixon’s 2nd term, then lost.

    Reagan – two terms, left with a degree of popularity that was preceded only by Eisenhower back in 1960 when he finished 2 terms.

    Bush 1 – one term, lost

    Bush 2 – two terms, leaving with the lowest approval ratings in history, with 2 wars still going, and an empty National Treasury.

    Aside from Reagan – not much to brag about.

  14. Parthenon says:

    I don’t know what you guys are so excited about. It’s all going to be ‘mmm serious allegations of voter fraud, OMG did Obama steal the election?’

  15. SaveFarris says:

    Leaving aside the fact that it will actually be Brit Hume or Shepard Smith that announces it, not O’Reilly or Hannity.

  16. Repack Rider says:

    Why brag about Reagan? Iran-Contra, Savings and Loan, Strategic Defense Initiative (”Star Wars”), and people like Oliver North, Elliot Abrams, Edwin Meese, Lyn Nofziger, Caspar Weinberger, John Poindexter, and a long list of other indicted and convicted aides. Reagan had a more corrupt administration than Nixon.

    Bad as he was, at least Nixon didn’t commit treason by trading with our enemies without the knowledge of congress. Reagan and North were both traitors and should have been charged with treason.

    ACORN and Obamas 20 year mission of destroying confidence in our electoral system has been accomplished.

    From the NYT:

    “I simply don’t have the staff to keep up,” said Ann McFall, the supervisor of elections in Volusia County, Fla.

    It takes 10 minutes to process a normal registration and up to a week to deal with a flagged one, said Ms. McFall, a Republican, adding that she was receiving 100 or so flagged registrations a week.

    “Former state Supreme Court Justice Sandra Newman said Friday she has no confidence in the integrity of the electoral process in Pennsylvania as a result of the extensive voter registration effort by a community group with ties to Barack Obama.”

    Nice work fellahs. I hope your proud.

  18. Parthenon says:

    Wow, Sen. Obama’s been working since age 26 to destroy confidence in the American electoral system?

    No doubt in concert with the ayatollah, right?

  19. SpiderJ says:

    Actually, Parth, he’s been working since age 8, when he began conspiring with William Ayers to DESTROY AMERICA!!!

    No, wait, he’s been working on it since kindergarten, when he wrote an essay about wanting to be President so he could DESTROY AMERICA!!!

    No, wait, he’s been working on it since the Muslim sperm cell that became him first bullied its way into his mother’s egg cell, and the newly conceived fetus began to imagine the day that he would one day DESTROY AMERICA!!!

  20. Leota2 says:

    Wow William—you’d think Obama would just want to get out of law school at twenty-six and maybe have a life. But destroying the electoral college?! Uh—I guess you mean like the Republicans in California wanted to?

    All that because those awful Negroes insist on voting?

    Who’d you copy this one from, willie?

  22. Nimrod Gently says:

    Oh yeah, they did a really good job of it in 2000, didn’t they?

  23. Tyro says:

    The Obama campaign is engaged in a vast, nationwide conspiracy to hobble the electoral process by registering too many people! Oh, the humanity! If only those citizens would know better than the register to vote and force those public servants to work hard to process them!

    Seriously, this is what the right wing has come to? Complaining that Obama and ACORN have created too much of a workload for electoral officials to handle?

  24. daniel rotter says:

    “Leaving aside the fact that it will actually be Brit Hume or Shepard Smith that announces it, not O’Reilly or Hannity”.

    Smith’s a pretty fair person (one of the few at the Fox “News” Channel), but Hume is as biased as they come.

  25. buma says:

    The really diabolical part of this ACORN thing is that the imaginary voters are also answering the phone when the pollsters call. Damn them all.

    I’ve already have had a little payback with Rush Limbaugh. Last time I listened to him was back in the primaries when he conspiratorial whispered to his audience “No way that Obama’s going to get the nomination.” “No way!”

    I can only listen to him at 5 minutes at a time. The pain is excruciating…but I am wondering what’s he saying of late. Boo-hoo!!

    Rush is the guy that told us that Arabs bombed Oklahoma City ’cause his friend in the FBI told him so. He was dumbfounded for no reason when he found out it was one of his own that did it. Another reason I worry about the Obama Presidency is what the Wingnuts will be doing then. This time, Obama should avoid being so nice to the Right like Clinton did.
