Yes, I thrive on a delicate mixture of monotony and chaos. So I was in my element...
  3:12pm
Sean Daily:

Well, Lizardner Dave, I think we can call the Obama administration a failure.
  3:12pm
AnAnonymousParty:

I had KG & RL going at the same time, just to see if it would create a black hole that would swallow up the earth.
  3:13pm
Ghengis Jung:

Don't worry, Irwin, GWB will invade Iran and declare martial law within the next few weeks, preventing O/B from taking office.
  3:13pm
Bad Ronald:

Yeah I was gonna say there not in office yet...
  3:14pm
Bruce:

My wife didn't like Michelle's dress and got bugged because I had no opinion. Other than that, pretty happy 'bout things. Would you play Lucia Pamela, Hap-Hap-Happy Heart? Thanks you right-wing nudge, you.
  3:14pm
Ike:

France? Who said anything about France? Isn't that where WE say we're going to move when our guys don't win? Where do all the neo-cons now threaten to move to? Paraguay? Saudi Arabia? Myanmar? Oh wait, never mind, you're all so much more "patriotic" than we are, so you'll never move. Seriously though, I'm curious. I'm not joking: If you DID move, where would you go? What other country is best for libertarians and conservatives?
  3:15pm
AnAnonymousParty:

I can't tell ya how much I enjoy a little BJ.
  3:16pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

I didn't like Michelle's dress either.
  3:16pm
Parq:

Interesting how "better dead than red" is something lefties say now.

Conservatives don't move to France, they get RAPTURED!

  3:18pm
oatman:

the room of people i was with, 1/2 made the comment about michelle's dress. i kinda liked it. it was a fashion thrillseeking moment.... i guess... to me i said, huh, oh her dress, yea, ummm, looks good, ummmm.
  3:18pm
Joe:

As someone who's entire political life has been defined by the George Bush boot stamping on the Democratic face, I really don't know what to do with myself. I've been trained to reflexively distain everyone in power. But now the person I voted for is in office. And not just in office, but swept to power on a frightening wave of humanity.

Is this what it was like when Clinton won in '92?
  3:18pm
Chulhu:

Bow down minions. I don't need no stinkin votes...I'm getting hungry
  3:18pm
oatman:

tears for fears next?

not being sarcastic, this is a great song by echo and the bunnymen
  3:19pm
Nicholas:

Actually, not only did Barack Obama win, the House and Senate went overwhelmingly to the Democrats.
  3:19pm
HotRod:

Who the hell cares about the dress she wore last night? All eyes were on our new President. What a wonderful experience.
  3:20pm
Bad Ronald:

May I be as bold to request Alice Cooper's 'I Love America"?

I guess I just did...
  3:21pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Kinda, Joe. The "frightening wave of humanity" was missing, but Clinton's election was pretty euphoric after 12 years of Reagan/Bush I.

Of course, then he actually got into office, and we had to face reality: he was just another politician. I'm afeared a whole bunch of folks are going to be disillusioned by Obama as well.
  3:21pm
Lizardner Dave:

Irwin can afford to be mangnanimous. Remember what happened two years after Clinton won. The revolution will be televised, and then it'll be cancelled after two seasons.
  3:21pm
Nicholas:

At least the dress she wore wasn't $150,000
  3:21pm
cthulhu:

Ok perhaps I do have a bit of trouble spelling my own name, but my many tentacled appendages really don't "get" (tentacle air quotes) the whole typing thing.
  3:21pm
Bruce:

Well, I tried to point out that history was being made... but that dress.
  3:22pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

What happened two years after Clinton won? Are you referring to the Contract On America?
  3:22pm
Bad Ronald:

It woulda been cool if she had a wardrobe malfunction!
  3:23pm
Joe:

I've got no illusions about Obama's political mettle. I know he's gonna wheel and deal. He's not the achetypical Magical Negro come to fixin us white peoples problems cuz he's got nothin better to do.
I wonder how many people voted Bagger Vance '08
  3:24pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

And Ike, I dunno about you, but everybody I know threatens to move to Canada, not France, when we don't like who won the election.
  3:25pm
Nicholas:

Well, anyway, like I said, gloating is for jerks. It would be rude to talk on and on about how this election was a thorough rejection of the Republican party across the board. Just plain rude.
  3:25pm
Bad Ronald:

Yeah F-France, better prank callers in Canada!
  3:26pm
xangoir:

fleeing to Canada is tired. South Pacific emigre for great justice
  3:26pm
HotRod:

I just can't understand these same-sex couple adoption bans. It disgusts me. We've come a long way yet have so far to go. Over 130,000 children are in need of families in this country.
  3:27pm
xxxx:

I threatened moving to Australia or NZ myself...
  3:27pm
gigantor:

I want to flee to France so I can meet the guy with bread in his armpits...
  3:27pm
Bad Ronald:

Yeah ITA HR, you're totally bumming me out now...
  3:28pm
Nicholas:

Well, you see HotRod, when your party has no idea how to run the government and people start realizing it, you come up with some outside enemy to focus on to keep people from noticing your inability to lead.
  3:28pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Yeah, and let's not forget Proposition 8 in California. The proponents of which were able to use Obama's face and voice, saying "I think marriage should be between a man and a woman." Obama didn't object. Think there may be a connection?
  3:28pm
oatman:

yes, and to meet nicolas sarkozy's american advisor, johnny halliday!
  3:28pm

Canada comes up a lot, but France was hot. Pierre Salinger really did move there.

jan:

say what you will about Irwin's political views, but he sure has a great musical beliefs.
  3:29pm
another old man:

End of big maps, big tables of pundits and "holograms".

Especially "holograms".
  3:29pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Between the implied endorsement -- or at least non-rejection -- of Prop 8 by Obama and the approval of said Proposition, that is.
  3:30pm
Nicholas:

Yeah, amen to the end of holograms.
  3:30pm
Ghengis Jung:

Rather than gloating, I'd prefer to learn what conservatism actually has to offer to the average citizen.
  3:30pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Sean, not until they move all their crap out of the White House and the Veep's Residence. Including all those little wiretaps.
  3:30pm
Bad Ronald:

Hang 'em high SD!
  3:32pm
willie the swillie:

do you make more than 200K a year? if not, you'll get a tax cut that you can donate to wfmu.
  3:33pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Ooh, Irwin, you're so manly! You can take it!

Then again, if you can "take it," some folks might consider you a tad bit less than manly.
  3:33pm
Nicholas:

Now he's just being maudlin. But I gotta say, we should make him sad about politics more often, he chooses music when he is.
  3:33pm
Joe Bacon:

Denise, I got a feeling the State court will throw out Prop 8. They always throw these things out!

P.S. IRWIN RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  3:33pm
Parq:

If I may say again: Prop 8 and its Florida analog are the gay rights movement's Plessy v Fergesun. They will have a Brown v Board of Ed, and they will have it in our lifetimes.
  3:34pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Irwin, I came in late. Did you really support Sarah Palin?
  3:34pm
Sean Daily:

Jesus, I WISH could pay all those extra taxes for being rich.

"That's right, bee-atches! I'm in a higher tax bracket! Obama's making me pay more taxes! And do you know WHY? Because I make more money than all a'ya's! I'M RICH, BITCH!"

On the subject of Michelle's dress ... http://tinyurl.com/5ozbub
  3:36pm

Yeah, Sarah needs a special good-bye committee for when she boards that final plane to Alaska. May I suggest a gospel choir singing "Hey Hey Goodbye"?
  3:36pm

How about a Cthulhu City? *Nods to tenatcled dude in the back row*

Nicholas:

Cthulu-Palin, 2012! Lets make it the real end of the world!
  3:39pm
Cecile:

Genghis, I could go on a long, and not entirely unsympathetic lecture on that topic. But I won't. Nor will I gloat - it will make for a most uncomfortable Christmas if I do.
  3:40pm
Fake Irwin:

The only way I would support Sarah Palin is in the manner of a brassiere...
  3:40pm
Parq:

Considering what happened the last time Sarah famously boarded a plane back to Alaska, the chorus should be singing "Bye By Baby, Baby Bye Bye".
  3:40pm
jon:

I don't see how moving to France would help much anyway.

Art of Noise !!!
  3:41pm
bzul:

Ls and Cs in need of escape could take to the most ruined and dangerous American inner city neighborhoods. Exposure to some itchy social service presence would be offset by Abundantly Exploitable Opportunities to Succeed Through Pragmatic Enterprise and Individual Assertions of Strength. Self-determination and self-defense daily. Ahhhhh!
  3:41pm
Lizardner Dave:

I was kind of hoping for a Cthulu-Zatumba ticket in '12 myself..
  3:41pm
GP:

I used to love this Art of Noise video..I forgot all about this....thanks Irwin.
  3:42pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Hmmm. I think the lawsuit asking that Prop 8 be thrown out looks pretty weak. But I will admit I know almost nothing about California law.
  3:44pm
Cecile:

"Cthulu-Zatumba: You bet we have our grasping tentacles in everything"

Youth and Experience!
  3:44pm
Nicholas:

I know something about California law now, its got a stupid law passed on it.

As a resident of DC, I am just glad we don't have to worry about Sarah with a shotgun flying over Capitol Hill in Air Force Two.

It won't be long now friends. The stars are starting to align.
  3:44pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

I'd like to see Cthulu's pageant walk.
  3:45pm
Parq:

Since Prop 8 effects a constl amendment, the only chance would be if a federal court finds it in violation of the US Constitution. I thnk we all know how likely *that* is. And Cthulu-Zatumba would make a great name for a band.
  3:45pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Bruce . . . I think I may know you.
  3:45pm
Nicholas:

"Right now I cannot even imagine running for national office in 2012," she told CNN's Dana Bash. "When I say that, of course, coming on the heels of an outcome that I did not anticipate and had not hoped for."-Sarah Palin
  3:46pm
Joe:

Actually, I think she's be shooting out of Marine One.
  3:46pm
Bruce:

From...?
  3:46pm
Joe Bacon:

Bruce, don't be so sure. Stevens got re-elected in Alaska. You may soon be seeing SENATOR Palin in D.C....
  3:47pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Parq, as it turns out, the lawsuit challenging Prop 8 is unrelated to the US Constitution. SFGate sez, "The lawsuit argued that Prop. 8 would change the California Constitution in such fundamental ways - taking important rights away from a minority group - that it amounted to a constitutional revision, which requires approval by the Legislature before being submitted to the voters."
  3:47pm

After McCain was leaving the stage after his concession, someone shouted "You're useless" I think they were shouting at her.

I sing some songs in Gordo styles, too....

Well that is just downright uncivil to treat a lady like that. Compassionate Conservatives..my a$$.

Is this Burton Cummings channelling Gordon Lightfoot?

c'mon, Irwin,your friends aren't depressed. Few with your tastes and interests would not have supported Obama. Most everyone is ecstatic. You are goading your listeners to fill up your comments page for some ulterior motives- but what are they
  3:51pm
Cecile:

I sometimes sing some goofy songs Gordo style myself. LOL! Not as good as Burt, though.
That comes with growing up next to Canada.

'Overt Gordon Lightfoot influence'. Now there's a phrase you don't often hear. I like it.
  3:52pm

Personally, I'm happy to allow Irwin to be his curmudgeonly, beautifully demented self.

'Overt Gordon Lightfoot influence'
The phrase has a certain ogliness.

OH that is a scream--"The Wasilla Hillbillies"

Come and listen to my story bout a man named Todd
A real buckaroo and he named his kids real odd
Then one day he was shooting at some moose
And up thru the ground came some bubblin ooze

Guess you're not the Bruce I know then, Bruce. Sorry.
  4:01pm
Nicholas:

"ABC News' Raelyn Johnson Reports: You can tell it's political season when people are putting a fine tooth comb to, well hair. A report filed with the Federal Election Commission last weekend revealed that former Sen. John Edwards' D-N.C., presidential campaign twice shelled out $400 for haircuts he received from a Beverly Hills salon.

Just as fast as gossip spreads in the fashion salon, ABC News has learned the money will be returned. "As for the haircuts, the bill was sent to the campaign, it was paid in error, and Edwards will be reimbursing the campaign," says campaign spokesperson Eric Schultz."

Lets see, 400+400=nonissue compared to $150,000.
  4:03pm
Denise in Washington, DC:

Look out, folks, this just came from the WashPost: "Cyber criminals are blasting out massive amounts of spam touting a video of President-elect Barack Obama's victory speech. Recipients who click the included link are taken to a site that prompts visitors to install an Adobe Flash Player update. The bogus update, however, is actually a data-stealing Trojan horse."

I was just about to comment: "Hooray Irwin! You're playing one of my favorite Clash songs" ('Lose This Skin,' from Sandantisa).

Then I realized the stream had broken a couple songs back and I've just been listening to my own ITunes library on shuffle.

God damn it, you really should play that song though. Especially today.

Lizardner Dave:

They're both non-issues. Looking at the amounts head to head is incorrect, you need to look at what was purchased. Formal clothes are more expensive than haircuts and the amount spend on each was ludicrous relative to what should sensibly have been spent.

And no, I'm not a Palin fan (far from it), however some of the piling on from the MSNBC crowd is just as absurd as the right-wing piling on manufactured by Fox News.

Yep, I'm what you call a moderate. Objective even. That means everyone hates my guts.

Well that's it, Bryan, I should have been tipped off by the fact that "Diane" was "playing" a Losers' Lounge track, but the thing was on shuffle, and the track before had been so Kamikaze that I was thrown off my guard.

Anyway, if Irwin is soooo desperate for us to gloat, then let's do it: Barack Obama and his fellow Democrats sweeped the executive branch, the House and Senate. President Elect Obama will probably have the chance to choose at least two Justices for the Supreme court, radically altering the Judicial branch for decades to come. The Republican party is on life support and its members will be a minority party for the coming future... lets see, anything I missed?
