I just heard "No Surrender" on the radio. Just for old times sake, I went to www.johnkerry.com and started poking around at the videos, commercials, etc.
I really thought I had gotten past the grief stage -- I guess not. Talk about a bummer!

10. No time for depression |

There is a bright side to this loss.
I know its hard to admit but its there!!!!
This loss should be a wkeup call to the dems to avoid the center at all costs!!!! Look at all the wimpy dems we lost?
Tom Daschle?
Zell Miller?
John Kerry? (not really lost but a guy caught in the middle)
Sure the platform is good but we can't have a Clinton repeat where every conseccion is given to the Republicans. That would set us back even further. Dems need to do the job they are supposed to do only this time to it with some teeth. Repiglicans are a mean and nasty so maybe it's time we got mean and nasty also.
I dont think we should adopt their thuggery but we need Dems who are willing to stick it to em. The WMD issue should have set the Repiglicans (notice how I demean them whenever I can. try it!! It works wonders!!!!)back 50 years. It was a bigger scandal than Watergate and the Dems just walked away from it and let it die.
We're not going to do that anymore.
Every bad story you see come out use to to throw it back in there face for the next four years. Every time you use it that puts them in the defensive.
Shrub will destroy the Repukes on his own. We just need to be relentless in our goals to put an end to this Fascists movement.
KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE PRIZE!!!!!

My Kerry sign is still up in my yard. America had a choice between a populist leader who said all children will have medical coverage, and good paying jobs would be kept here, and we would regain respect in the world. Or to contunue the presidency of a guy who drove us into a ditch and killed our kids.
It hurts badly and I've ended friendships on what I perceive as the shallowness of Bushies.

11. Our family was split right down the middle so to speak... |
|
Unfortunately, I believe the "uninformed" members voted for Bush and Co...For them it was still the "immorality of Clinton" ...I don't get it and we tried to bring reason but...Can't let it split the family however...(By the way..the Mr. and I are the Oldest members...Our eldest daughter and our son and daughter in law were the other informed voters).

Shrub stole the election and I'm tired of this Bushit.
Rub their nose in that every chance you get. These idiots would love to think that this guy has a mandate. They know its not true and are only playing out a fantasy amongst their constituency.
Shrub lost and he's not my Pretzeldent!!!!
Hit them with that every chance you get. It fucking burns them up and exposes them for the lying theive they are.
