What a Relief - America Survives 

 Link

 Excerpt:
I figured out why I was so relieved last night. It's because I have spent the last six years 
(that's when I realized how radical the Bush administration was) on pins and needles that 
we were going to lose America and do tremendous damage to the world. Bush could do 
something monumentally wrong at any moment. But even more important was that Cheney 
had so degraded the American system of government that for the first time in my life, 
I wondered if the idea of America would survive.

Would they fix the elections? Would they make up some fake emergency to stay in power? 
Would they find some nefarious way to make sure John McCain won the elections? 
Did the powers-that-be secretly control these things? Was our democracy real? 
These are all thoughts I would not have entertained eight years ago. I would have found 
them laughable. But after seeing what Cheney and Bush were willing to do in the last 
eight years, it seemed that nothing was beyond them.

But it didn't happen. What tremendous relief! And joy. America survives!

 Subject: Bar room floor...

Bart, I'm toasting our new president...
 
Hey, just thought about 1996. At least we had congress to kick in the nuts.
 Now it's like coming to on the bar room floor with a couple loose teeth, 
a bloody nose but suddenly you realize you kicked everyone's ass in the room.
 
Shit this could be like Star Trek or something.... 
Other people might like us again... 
Maybe the Vulcans will finally show up?
 
The cromagnons at McPain's bye bye speach made it a point to boo Joe Biden.....
(Yes, but the Obama crowd applauded McCain at Obama's speech)
 
The Dark Side is still out there man....
 
But hey, the good guys won this one.
Eight long f-ing years...
 
A shot and a toke man....
333 electoral votes and Indiana went blue?
 
That aint just a mandate..... that's some profound cosmic intervention......

Obama's Kenyan family sings 
'we are going to the White House'

 Link

 Excerpt:
Barack Obama's Kenyan relatives erupted in cheers Wednesday, singing "We are going 
to the White House!" as Obama became the first African-American elected president.

Kenya's President Mwai Kibaki declared Thursday a public holiday in honor of Obama's victory.

Across Africa - where Obama is wildly popular - people stayed up all night or woke before dawn 
Wednesday to watch the U.S. election results roll in. In the Kenyan capital, Nairobi, people chanted 
"Obama! Obama!" as the results were announced on television.
 

Well - good for them!

A Black man finally made it - and he broke a lot of doors down last night.

The space between white and Black got shorter last night so 
maybe the space between Jew and Muslim got a little shorter.
maybe the space between rich and poor got a little shorter.

Someone said up until yesterday, "Anyone can be president" was just talk.
Now it appears to be a reality.

A Black man winning?
In this racist country?

The world just got a whole lot better.

 Subject: thank you 

Dear Bart, Mrs. Bart, and Bartcat,

Thank you for being there every day as we endured "The Monster Years" (a la Krugman).  
You've provided so many laughs, fuel for the fire in our bellies, and so much more.  
Your train never left the tracks!   

We survived because of people like you plugging away helping to frame the issues 
and teaching dems how to fight back.  You can still teach us - so I hope you will keep blogging.  

Hugs to you and yours on this unbelievable moment in American history - since I think you
need it most now that you live in the REDDEST state of the union.  Holy Bartcat!   66% for McCain?

 Quotes

"It's fun to watch Nazis cry..."
      -- ObamaWins in the chat room last night
 

 I feel bad for you Bartcop readers who weren't there.
 For several hours, we had a community of over 100 think-alike people sharing thoughts.

 We worried, we gambled, we celebrated and we got verklempt when Obama spoke.

 Also, believe it or not, I'm going to offer up a shot of Chinaco to Wolf the Whore and CNN
 I've talked before about that magic night when Cal Ripken Jr broke Lou Gehrig's record.
 Chris Berman was in charge and he perfectly shut the hell up and let the scene unfold.

 That's what Wolf the Whore did last night while watching the madness in Grant Park.
 He shut the hell up and let the viewers experience the moment. Without Wolf's incessant
 yapping and barking, the viewer could almost pretend to be at Grant Park and that was cool.

 So Wolf, I doubt you'll ever earn another one of these, so enjoy it.

 Subject: Kumbaya

Bart, I started reading Bartcop in the run-up to the 2000 selection, when you were virtually 
the only place on the internet calling bullshit on the Republican machine, and I've been a regular 
reader ever since. I was especially on your side during the Democratic civil war.
 
I didn't think Obama could do it, but he did, and I've never been so glad 
to be so wrong in my whole life. Kumbaya, brother. Oh lord, kumbaya.

Last Night's Live Chat

 Link

For most of the night we had over 100 chatters.
That meant normal conversation was a little hard to follow but there 
was some great talk, some great observations and some great jokes.

There were also some touching moments.

It was so long I cut it into 6 sections.
If a section gets boring, move to the next section
because it's great fun reading the posts when victory hits.

"Think how much detergent Obama is going to have to put in a 
  washing machine to wash Bush's skidmarks off of the American flag..."
     -- JoeBacon in the chat room last night,
 

  Send e-mail to Bart  |  Discuss it on The BartCop Forum |  Comment on it at the BartBlog!

Hard to believe...

America is no longer in the rape business.

America is no longer in the murder business.

America is no longer in the torture business.

America is no longer in the kidnapping business.

America is no longer in the invasion business.

America is no longer in the steal-your-oil business.

America is no longer in the borrow-from-commies
to give the super-rich more money business.

On the other hand, I see steel in Obama's eyes.

If they come to him and say, "We need to take this terrorist out,"
I have no doubt he'll assess the situation and if a just execution will 
make America safer, I think he'll take the proper action.

One big difference?
Obama won't ask them to record the murder so he can masturbate to it later.

Truth about Palin Comes Out

 Link

 Excerpt:
One night, Steve Schmidt and Mark Salter went to Palin's hotel room to brief her. 
After a minute, Palin sailed into the room wearing nothing but a towel, with another on her wet hair.

She raised William Ayers before the campaign signed off on it:

She spent far more on clothes than was reported:  An angry McCain aide characterized her 
    shopping spree as "Wasilla hillbillies looting Neiman Marcus from coast to coast,"

Steve Schmidt (who reportedly picked Palin as VP) would not let her speak on election night.

Think there's any chance Obama will re-open the Florida 2000 and Ohio 2004 files as president? 
Bring justice to Gore, Kerry's campaigns and to make sure it never happens again?
 Al in Regina, Canada
 

Al, I doubt that will happen.
I think Obama has too many super-serious problems to solve 
so looking back is probably not at the top of his agenda.

Of course, Robert Perry will no doubt attack Obama for that decision like he attacked
Clinton for not digging into Iran-Contra, but maybe Bob Perry can't be made happy.

Bart,

Thought you might appreciate my halloween costume.

What an incredible day we Americans (and the rest of the world) had. 
I believe our backwards ass states will begin to come to their senses starting today. 
Might take awhile, but we'll get there. 

Looks like I owe you a few bucks on my pledge...I'll do the math tomorrow.

Thanks for being there.

 Subject: Thanks Again Bart!

You worked your ass off and it paid big time Dude! 
I feel my Dad smiling down now that it looks like we've "hammered" the fascists as he and his 
brothers-in-arms did in W.W.II (without getting our asses shot off of course). I think your job 
has gotten even harder now because we have to protect OUR president from the pig men of the right.

I really wanted to blog with you guys last night but (I'm getting stupid in my old age) just couldn't get 
that damned MIRC to work.  It was a little frustrating for me last night knowing that I was only 30 miles 
from Grant Park but I just didn't feel well. But, that's OK.

Republican DuPage County went for Obama but once again, they turned their backs on a combat vet 
(Jill Morganthaler) in favor of that a**hole Roskam (who would not respond to my phone calls to help me 
with my Dad's VA benifits for my mother). Idiots and hypocrites out here!

I'll keep making the cartoons if you want them or anything else you need that I'm able to do.
God bless,
 Rob

This Just In...

 Obama wins Indiana

 Do you know how racist Indiana is?

 When Oklahoma holds a KKK rally, we import Fascist dog KKK bastards from Indiana 
 because the local Okie Fascist dogs just don't have that KKK panache, that swagger.

 ...but ...then there's this:
 

 Subject: Congratulations, Bart....  "we TOOK A HAMMER to them bastards!"

 Seeing as Bart comes from a SEA of Redneck Red there in Oklahoma,  
 I know it has been a LONG, HARD fight!
 
 Looking at the above CNN election results map,  looks like  the Knuckle-draggers in the 
 ol' Homestead state gave John McInsane HIS BEST results nationwide.. at 66%  a bigger 
 winning margin than in Wyoming, Georgia, and even Idaho.
 
 The GOOD NEWS, Bart...  is that ONE out of every three Okies SUPPORTED SANITY!!
  LJBK  
 

 Y'know, winning last night was more fun than watching the Dallas Cowboys lose - seriously.

Now: The hard part

 Link

 Excerpt:
Finally, at long last, the election is over. Now comes the really, really hard part. 
Our nation is facing a bad time economically. Detroit and Michigan are facing something 
much worse. Avoiding something that looks more like a depression than a recession will 
be tremendously difficult. That is no exaggeration. You almost cannot exaggerate how 
much our lives are about to change.

Subject: Dallas Cowboys

Hey Bart, I know you hate the Dallas Cowboys ALMOST as much as I do,  
so when I read this gem I thought of you:

With a record 13 Pro Bowlers returning from last year's squad, there  was talk - most of it 
entirely reasonable - that this was Dallas' most  talented team ever. The Cowboys were the 
consensus pick, not just to  represent the NFC, but to win the Super Bowl. Nevertheless, 
midway  though the season, America's team has begun to resemble America's  economy...

ha ha

...which is to say it smells of a scam. 

At the helm of this caper is - what else? - an erstwhile oilman. Jerry  Jones has succeeded 
George Steinbrenner as the star owner of American  sports: an aggressive huckster, a post-modern 
Barnum, a procurer of  talents that reflect well on his own. Truth be told, he's not a bad  general manager. 
Unlike Steinbrenner, he played the game he professes  to know, and knows it intimately. But he's also 
addicted to the high- profile play at the expense of more sensible solutions.

ha!  you gotta print that!
Greetings from mexico!
 Ricardo
 

I don't like or dislike Jerry Jones, but I'll say one good thing about him:
He wants to win and he doesn't mind paying for it.

He spent $45M to bring in that one receiver whose name I don't even know
just so T.O. could get open more often - you gotta love an owner like that.

Subject: Election night pledge

Ken's original pledge was a donation for the red states that Obama turned blue.

Those original states were CO FL IA MO NV NM ND OH VA 

Obama turned CO, FL, IA, NV, NM, OH and VA.
Obama missed on ND and MO - but we can live with that :)

For those who wanted to match Ken's original pledge, the number of states is 7
For those who wanted to donate for each state, my guess is 25 states went Obama.
For those who wanted to donate for each electoral vote, USAToday has it at 349 electoral votes.

Of course, I realize a pledge is not a contract, so if you got a little excited and pledged more 
than you can afford, I'm not keeping track so you're under no obligation to send anything.

I'm grateful for any donations that come my way.
