Weepy Sisters

Obama Speech Causes Mass Weeping Epidemic in Leftwing Blogosphere




That emotional awe towards Obama's speech has reached the level of mass weeping in the Leftwing blogosphere. The leftists profess to be so awestruck by that speech that it seems mass crying will soon replace the fainting attacks at future Obama appearances. Confessions of drama queen tearful reactions to Obama's speech has reached comedic proportions on both the Democratic Underground and the Daily Kos. ...  First a sampling of weeping confessions from the Democratic Underground:
    If you didn't cry, someone needs to check your pulse. It was a speech that christens an era.

    i started to tear up while reading the text on my phone at a restaurant. i had to stop reading it.

    I called in sick so I could watch it. I was seen crying in my recliner. My tough husband--who didn't cry when his father died--came home from work and blubbered like a baby.

    He's too good for us



Not to be outdone by the DUers, the denizens of the Daily Kos confessed to their own mass weepings:


    I wept while reading Obama's speech. Then I wept again while watching it. I have teared up again and again reading the many personal accounts of how Obama's words have caused change and healing.

    Barack Obama...has made this grown man cry more times than I care to admit.

    I haven't stopped crying since the speech. Off and on, all day, in the car, at the sink, at the desk....I just break out in tears.

    I cried, like everyone else, but the chills came first.
To quote FDR - "We have nothing to fear but canker blossoms like these."

Yeah, Hitler's speeches caused emotional reactions like that from his followers too.

I was starting to tear up, until _jon here allowed me to invoke Godwin's law.

I've had the chance to observe Obama doing his stump speech.

His tone and delivery remind me of Bill Cosby, just without the punchlines. Instead, what you get with Obama is recycled human potential blather, dressed up as politics.

It succeeds with a lot of people, but I feel like I can see right through him.

My reaction was somewhat different but quite satisfying as I had consumed 3 bean burritos for breakfast.

I dont know about ya'll but when I hear a great speech I dont haft to be told about it You just know it like Reagan's "TEAR DOWN THIS WALL"
OR W's "I can Hear you The rest of the world can hear you and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon" Or JFK " What can you do "
You know it when you hear it you feel it I felt nothing when Obama spoke It was a bunch of double talk
