Had to gloat, check out this e-mail to two Freeper friends

Ah, Fellas: I'm back and rested from a great week at Disney World. They really do things right there. Gotta buy some DIS stock. But the real fun part was watching the beginning of the end to the far right wing of your party. You guys must be so proud! Chimpy still hasn't found WMD, Cheney and Rove on the hot-seat for the administration's ham-handed attempt to get back at Joe Wilson by outing his CIA covert-agent wife. (A freaking FELONY!) Bob "Novakula" Novak might also be headed for some interesting times ahead because he was the "tool" (literally and figuratively) of the adminstration, and unbelievably, took the FIFTH when he was asked questions about the story on CNN! But that's far from being the best news of this wonderful week! Yes, not only did Rush "Anal Cysts got me out of Military Service" Limbaugh "resign" from his ESPN gig for a RIDICULOUS statement about Donovan McNabb, but, it also turns out he's a DRUG ADDICT!!!! Oh, my compassion usually knows no bounds. And I toyed with the idea that we should hope and pray that Rush gets better. But that thought stayed with me for, oh....I don't know...about 15 seconds! I hope he gets indicted, goes to prison and gets ass-fucked by 10 inmates. Also interesting is the Arnold S. allegation of 30 years of sexual misadventures. Ahhh..the Republican party...home of family values! And, it looks (as I'm typing this) that the Cubbies are going to lose game 4! Geez, what else can go "right" for me? One question though, what's worse: getting a hummer from an intern in the Oval Office, or outing a covert CIA agent (which happens to be a FELONY offense)? What's worse to lie to the country about? A sordid and sad affair between consenting adults or the underling reason to send our sons and daughters to fight and die in a foreign country? Feel free to discuss this amongst yourselves!

Geez....do ya think I was too harsh?

[never cry wolf]

1. heh heh

Sox fan, huh??

Nice letter!!

4. Yep

Rooting for the Cubs is like voting for a Republican for me.

8. I feel that way about rooting for the Yankees!

eom

[Maccagirl]

2. Too harsh...Nah

This was truly a week to savor.

[LearnedHand]

3. Um, if I had to guess...

...yes. But only because I tend NOT to be so direct when I'm trying to discuss these issues with Freepers. I do that goddam stupid liberal thing of giving them their say, seriously considering their side, informing them I understand their position...SHUT UP, self!

So, take my judgment for what it's worth (for the record, I haven't converted a single Freeper.)

6. maybe it's a female thing,

but I could never write such scathing (yet amusing!) commentary to my friends and expect to keep them as such. I am far more likely to discuss politics with men than I am with women. I wonder why that is? I don't consider that women are inferior at all or that they are incapable of having their own opinion--God knows I do!--but maybe it's just that I'm in a new place and really hurting for some gal pals, so I don't want to offend them at the beginning.

Sorry, musing to myself a bit. Liked the letter. Let us know if they ever talk to you again!

:hi:

9. I've known these guys for years

We have a lot in common aside from our politics. We like to argue. They have written WAY worse e-mails (IMO) and they need to be slapped around a bit when necessary. This e-mail wil be waiting for them on Monday morning while they're quaffing their first coffee of the day.

7. Not too harsh, IMO

They reap what they sow.

11. Make sure to give us an update

when/if they reply. Should be good for a few laughs. Nice work!

12. "...gets ass-fucked by 10 inmates. "

Is this supposed to be a bad thing? I don't get you straight guys! Anyway, from what I've heard about Rush, it won't be the first time soemone's "checked him for hemeroids" if you catch my drift ;-)
