..some people will never get over it..

snip
There will be protests at the inauguration,
there will be calls for impeachment, there will be hell-raising
from sea to shining sea and some of it will appear here in your
favorite fishing group.

When will this start? I just LOVE a parade. ;-)

Do try to keep up Timmmmmmmmay!

Do try to keep up, Mark. The first shot was fired long before I arrived in this
marvelous place and the shots have continued constantly.

Do try--HARDER--to keep up Timmmmmmmmay! I was referrin' to the latest volley.


Love and bombs away,

That one was close!

Do you remember how much fun it was, in grade school, to play kickball with those
jelly balls?

You got that right. And why should they ?

Because if you guys don't recover from 2004, (hell some of you haven't got past
2000 yet), and come up with a viable candidate for 2008, you'll be doomed to
yet another four years of handwringing and whining.

Time for someone on the left to suck it up, strap on a set of balls and oust
the Clintonistas and start with a clean sheet of paper. Believe it or not, I'd
like to see a Democrat that I'd consider giving my vote in 2008.

What kind of La La Land do you live in anyway where the 48% of
the people who feel screwed, ****ed and betrayed by their own
goddamn countrymen are now supposed to act like nothing ever
happened ? Besides being stupid, that would be downright
unpatriotic !

A kind of La-La land where 51% of the people were rational, and felt Kerry was
so bad that they went with Bush, who was clearly vulnerable.

So get used to it. There will be protests at the inauguration,
there will be calls for impeachment, there will be hell-raising
from sea to shining sea and some of it will appear here in your
favorite fishing group.

And you can get used to losing governors and seats in congress, as well as
presidential elections, as long as your party shares your views. The protests
and calls for impeachment will only drive the majority of voters away from the
Democrats.

Not a big fan of irony, eh, Frank?

Did not serve but did get far enough in the draft process to be forced
to bend over (along with 50 other guys, in the same room at the same
time) and have several Army doctors look up his rectum. The most
Dadaist moment of his life.

Interesting, obviously-biased list - some notables missing:

Bush, Sr. - served, DFC
Reagan - served
Ford - served
Nixon - served (and for almost 25 years, through WWII until 1966)
LBJ - served
JFK - served
Eisenhower - served
Truman - served
FDR - no service
Lincoln - odd short service (something like 2-4 months in 30-day chunks)

Bob Dole - served


and of course, what would any topic be without:
Hitler - served
Stalin - served

Just shows you that long service isn't necessarily a sign of good
character.

On inauguration day, let's march down to the Federal Building, I'll carry my
'Impeach Bush Now' sign, you can carry your 'Get Over It' sign. We'll stage
a fight for the cameras, then go get us a well earned beer or 2 or 3.

Well, a candidate who can garner 48% of the vote is "viable"
according to my dictionary and we're *all* doomed, but only
some of us are aware enough to realize it.

Make up your mind, do you want to consider someone on the
left or a Democrat ? Hint: There is no "viable" left in
American politics.

And you can get used to losing governors and seats in congress, as well as
presidential elections, as long as your party shares your views. The protests
and calls for impeachment will only drive the majority of voters away from the
Democrats.

Yeah, the American electorate is hopelessly stupid and too
easily manipulated into voting against their own best interests.
I don't see any silver linings in the clouds gathering over the
future of our republic. That doesn't mean I'm going to abdicate
my right to bitch about it though.
