Governor Walker and his supporters won the recall elections in Wisconsin. This is democracy. As opposed to the street mobs that for the last year and a half bizarrely claimed they were democracy. The lamentation of their men will do:
[NOTE: I switched out the video for another version more blog-friendly]
Typically for his side, if they don't win it doesn't really count as democracy.
The original classic:
I've never actually seen the movie, but that scene is great.
UPDATE: Thanks to Mad Minerva for the link. She's back from her undisclosed location. Also, with the recall election over, let's savor the civility from Walker's opponents.
UPDATE: Oh, and I should comment that this guy thinks his side was defending the future of democracy in America, and yet they were only willing to cough up $4 million to defend it? Pretty sad, dude.
UPDATE: More comedy gold (tip to Instapundit):
A "solidarity sing-along!"
The thought process that goes into thinking that is something worthwhile to do is simply alien to me.
UPDATE: OK, one last update. These are members of the "reality-based" community?
UPDATE: OK, one more. One reason that their thought processes are so alien is that I don't see President Obama as evil the way the Wisconsin activists view Walker and Republicans. I think President Obama's policies are wrong. I think he's essentially a socialist--a European-style social democrat (those who are outraged that Obama could be called a socialist seem to wrongly think "socialist" is a synonym for "communist"). I don't trust him. I am sick of his overly political approach to everything. And I think he shouldn't have been elected president. Mind you, I am deeply angry that our press corps has sided so totally with the man. But I don't actually hate Obama. And I think our republic will survive 4--or even 8--years of him in office.
