Jim Webb's victory speech

[CallAShot]

what the hell has webb done?

nothing!!!

[rainman2242]

great inflection in the speech.

[wattzoo]

This never should have happened.  The ignorant majority bought the lies.

[BenAliGtor]

The third best news of Election Night 2006 was when Rick Santorum was declared the loser in Pennsylvania less than an hour after the polls closed.

The second best news of the night was the defeat of Katherine Harris in Florida.

And the BEST news of the night? George "Macaca" Allen's loss to Jim Webb in Virginia.

Good riddence, Santorum, Harris and Allen! It WOULD have been better if you'd never been born but your humiliations in '06 were the next best thing.

[Vinasai]

Out with Macaca !

BBC News reports that a statement from the leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq hails the defeat of Republicans in the US mid-term polls.

"I tell the lame duck (US administration) do not rush to escape as did your defence minister.

"The American people have taken a step in the right path to come out of their predicament... they voted for a level of reason," the voice said. Muhajir, also known as Ayyub al-Masri, has been identified by US forces as the successor to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

[jonathanwindham]

Al-Qaeda makes up less than 5% of the insurgentcy

and of course he would say that, he's just trying to make us second guess ourselves or even 3rd and 4th guess ourselves, during the 2004 election Binladen said Bush's re-election helped Al-Qaeda, you cant trust them to give us a straight veiwpoint on how to beat them

[IraqVetNY]

It seems that both Al Qaeda and the GOP are for supporting democracy. I will not be frightened for supporting a failed policy in Iraq and lack of courage and decency from your party.

[molarband]

buh bye corruplicans!

dont let the door hit your ass on the way out!

[vdiddyinthecity]

after the tape ended Webb found a 6 year old kid in the audience and shoved the kids dick in his mouth. Er... wait that was his book sorry I got confused.

[mayssm]

Yeah, because everyone that writes fiction believes and commits what they write. Anne Rice is secretly a vampire, J.K. Rowling attended Hogwarts and graduated with honors, and the women that currently write romance novels actually were alive in the 1800s and had sex with their slaves repeatedly. Any more straws to grasp at?

[gregarious24]

Is it just me or do they start chanting 'Hemotep', like the zombies in The Mummy Returns?

[kunomchu]

I voted for him! YAY

[mynaturalbeauty]

I am so happy Webb won, he is going to be great for the Democratic Party. He rocks! It's about time Americans came to their senses and out of the republican spin machine!

[wiredsurf]

FUCK GEORGE BUSH and the RELIGIOUS RIGHT! FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK

[tdl4101]

don't you people realize this country is fucked? ALL politicians are pieces of shit and only give a fuck about their own bank account and power....we are all pieces of dog crap to these guys...one is the same as the next.

[gregarious24]

Amen, brotha.

[ankerous88]

WEBB is an imoral pig. Enjoy him.

[mayssm]

Sorry I don't vote for polititians based on morals. They are all basically immoral. Power corrupts. I want them to make sound decisions for our military and infrastructure. Not tell me what I can watch on tv, who I can marry, where I should worship, and what books I should read, based on *their* morals.

Do you hire a CEO because he is a nice guy? No, you want a guy that will make your business flourish with good business sense. Same goes for politicians.

[waterfrontpark]

The training ground of Iraq has created more terrorists than we can ever count, superpasta. Go dems! I want the disgustingly rich to pay their share of taxes, and I want universal healthcare like every other first world nation.

[Darren7160]

ANY COWARD that believes Americans shouldn't vote for who they want to vote for because of terrorists don't deserve the freedom that we veterans have sacraficed for... You don't deserve it but... You are welcome. COWARDS

[johnlert22]

Webb's wife is hot! good job dude!

[shont2006]

Yeah...Webb, a Regan Republican that was drafted to run as a Democrat is really going to support impeachment hearings, LOL.

[SilkySmooth105]

I am not a big fan of Webb or Allen, but I am happy Dems got control of congress.

[allfordemocracy]

Some of the fascist may soon be out of sight, but they will still be near.

Lets let the bell of democracy ring clear for a long time ... We, the American people, need to be on the constant lookout, steadfastedly, as an eagle.

[abrittain80]

As the words of my favorite Sonic commercial say. "What a Duffus" (sp)

[superblaster76]

Yeah, the reference was already listed above when I said World Net Daily.

[tjs989]

Does no one realize that both Webb and Allen are horrible people either way? Allen is racist, Webb is sexist and anti-semitic. No matter who won, we lost out.

[thechattanoogan]

I agree with the spirit of your comment. To me, the "good cops" are now in control of Congress.

But they aren't particularly liberal in the veins of say Tom Paine or Ben Franklin...

"Lesser of 2 evils" tjs? Look no further than Diane Feinstein's hubby for confirmation...

[yigit2681]

allen is probably going, 'if i hadn't called that fucking macaca, macaca I would have won!'

[TommySavage]

"My favourite fact about Jon Tester is that he lost 3 fingers on his left hand..." - Katie Couric, Yesterday

:D

[rayman46]

I guess Webb made MACACA Allen into CACA. CASE CLOSED.

[phpimen]

Leave it to Virginia, home to the founder of the Declaration of Independence, to put the final nail in the coffin of the long national nightmare.

[SleeplessEric]

Hey, "superblaster," was it better to vote for delusional chickenhawks, NONE of whom had ever been in combat, who thought that a war was like a video game, who TOOK THEIR EYE OFF THE BALL IN AFGHANISTAN and enjoyed strutting around in Iraq, which had NOTHING to do with 9/11? Jim Webb, unlike CHICKENHAWKS Cheney and Rumsfeld, and Fake-o Cowboys Bush and Allen, is a REAL military expert who knows something other than video games.

[superblaster76]

So we can only go after bad guys who had something to do with 9/11? By that measure we should have never taken out the Nazis since it was not them who attacked us.

[sundropdave]

News Flash: Pearl Harbor - Axis attacks America in WWII.

[thechattanoogan]

Hmmmm, do you drive a Nazi Ford?

Ever read henry ford's "The International Jew"? I have...you can find it on Stormfront or other WP sites...

Kind of the prewritings for Mein Kampf buddy...

Once you stick your head in "that" rabbit hole, there's no "Coming Up for Air" (Orwell)

[superblaster76]

Terrorists leaders told WorldNetDaily an electoral win for the Democrats would prove to them Americans are "tired." They said a withdrawal would also embolden their own terror groups to enhance "resistance" against Israel.

Of course Americans should vote Democrat," Jihad Jaara, a senior member of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terror group and the infamous leader of the 2002 siege of Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity, told WND.

[Doorhenge]

WorldNetDaily: A news site that said New Orleans blacks are too "welfare-pampered" and shouldn't have relied on the government to save them from the hurricane aftermath.

What a reputable news site.

Posting this kind of crasy stuff is the reason why your side's majority is shrinking. I wouldn't do it anymore if I were you.

[superblaster76]

Anaudio recording by the leader of Iraq's al Qaeda wing gloated over the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld as a top U.S. general said the military was preparing to recommend strategy changes. That my friend is straight from the horses mouth, you can spin it any way you want but terrorists are happy that Democrats are in control, here come the 90's all over again.

[Doorhenge]

They'll say anything to make it look as though they're winning. It's too bad you help to spread their terror and demoralise our troops for them.

All for politics too. Shameful.

[phpimen]

Go wake up, you idiot. You, your party, and everything you stand for was REJECTED by the American people on Tuesday.

[dwyerb]

to avoid electing candidates from the party more inclined to reconcile with the mid east just because we want to avoid giving some random columnist the impression we are "tired"? -- now THAT would be a lack of courage.

[superblaster76]

That was not a columnist who said that, it was Al-Qaeda although I see how you could get the two confused.

[dwyerb]

actually it was a GRAVE error on my part to confuse the two. we should NEVER assume all of these people are the same, feel the same about america, or want us all dead. Now I know you'd prefer we just glassify every goddamned one of them, but isn't this the converse of the 9-11 hijacker's mentality?

[sundropdave]

Yeah! Let the terrorists tell Americans how to vote!

Great idea man!

[bejenin]

He mumbles.

[Doorhenge]

No. That was a book of the horrors he saw in Nam. Your party however will be on his junk instead.

BTW, I still can't believe your party is still trying that stuff. Allen's poll numbers was pulling away from Webb's until he showed that ad about his books that insulted the voter's intelligence.

You. Still. Don't. Get. It.

[orygun78]

The Dems control the Senate, House and a majority of the governors' offices.

Let the investigations and impeachment begin!

Oh and one more thing....

We are the champions my friend

And we'll keep on fighting till the end

We are the champions

We are the champions

No time for losers

'cause we are the champions of the world

[abrittain80]

To bad that is not going to happen. Pelosi said she would rather not send America into a long ordeal like an impeachment trial. So tell me buddy. Just what exactly did he do to deserve being impeached.

[Doorhenge]

The reasons won't be for real until the hearings begin...

[Chilldogg]

The voters have spoken!

[doezeedoats]

Jim Webb has got SERious presidential gravitas! Pass the word.

[jonnybananas]

wow, in the crowd @ the tipping point... amazing! Thank you!

[fishhead06]

51-49. Go Webb! Go Majority Leader Reid!

[conservativechris]

I can be like the Democrats after the 2004 election and claim I'm moving to Canada or that American is going down the drain, but I'm a Republican. We have more class than that. So I'll just congradulate all of you that supported this man.

[fishhead06]

And the ironic thing is....I'm a Canadian!

[conservativechris]

lol. Why do a lot many Canadian's care so much about our politics?

[fishhead06]

Because it has such an impact on our society, esp. with regards to trade and border security. And Canadians are traditionally quite interested in foreign affairs, and the US is a major world player.

[conservativechris]

That was a well thought out answer. Thank you

[drumpat01]

Horray for Jim Webb!! HORRAY FOR VIRGINIA!

[poshzombie]

The unbelievable has happened. We've got both houses back! Now comes the hard part. Don't screw it up and fix this mess. The people have shown that we will not tolerate incompetence. The new majority better remember that.

[whatgodwantspart2]

We've just got to do our part and keep em honest :^)

[lamkhutte]

ALL RIGHT !!! now that's what i call "a good day"!!

[logovo]

YAY!!!! I didn't think it was going to happen, but yes! *pumps fist*

[ayaneva]

*cheers along with the crowd*

[swanny88]

it's all Colon, Dick and Bush's fault!!

[Sh3Lost]

Va Loves you Senator Webb

[SuperKooter]

YAY! You go rid of that Maccaa Racist Allen!!!

[superblaster76]

Yeah, just like all the Democrats who came out and threw Oreos at Steele.

[sundropdave]

Smear campaign is over you can go back and rest in your hate hole for another 2 years.

[tnichlsn]

Thank you Senator Webb. We know you'll make all of US proud!

[ziopedro]

we love webb!!!

you are in our hearths!!

[ThisGuysTrouble]

Way to go Virginia!! America is proud of your state for standing against racism and an autocratic neocon agenda.
