There's only one reason why the Wingers are rewriting history
At such a fervent pace: Desperation.

Once out of power, they fear they'll be held responsible for their malfeasance and incompetence.

I say, GIVE THEM A REASON TO BELIEVE IT. Publicly declare that they will be investigated and prosecuted once the reigns of power have been exchanged.

Oh boy, they'll shit their pants.

The formula is simple: Knowing full well that they're in for it, they'll react by doing more outrageous shit. The criminality in them will just explode, ala Nixon.

The more crimes that they commit will be more fuel for the fire. A fire that will burn them in their collective asses.

I say go after them with both barrels, loaded for bear, baby.

In the end, I see a collapse of the neo-con, right wing so profound that it will last many a year.

Start loading your ammo, people.

2. The churches are already circling the wagons.
Our local Southern Baptist church has gone bonkers lately with sermons, ads, phone calls, and emails proclaiming the end of the world if republicans dont retain the House & Senate. They are really trying to scare the masses with the tired old issues of gay marriage & flag burning (yes, unbelievably they are screaming this crap again). They are comparing the trashing of Bush to the crucifixion of Christ.
Harry and Nancy, go ahead and TELL the American people that if Dems win Congress you WILL start investigations into republican crimes starting at the top with the blivet.
I will applaud your backbone.

20. Even worse is the call I answered at my Dad's house...pre-recorded message
about signing a petition to protect people from child pornography and same sex marriage. Press 1 to sign the petition. I was at his house working some damn spyware off his computer (Dad, do NOT open and run the joke movies and attached scripts your raunchy friends send you dammit for about the millionth time or I am going to take your computer from you for a week! Let your friends computers be all fucked up but I am tired of spending a gazillion hours a year cleaning yours out!)

I was so appalled by the call I did not take the time to listen who broadcast this terrible insinuation (child pornographers and gays are one in the same) and hung up the phone like I was holding on to a snake.

I actually was come to think of it.

It was some organization with the word American in it. An 877 number on the phone but no name identified. That call still bothers me this AM.

Edited on Tue Sep-26-06 06:47 AM by mtnester
I had to immediately go home and disinfect my hand.

I normally pay attention to stuff like that, but it caught me SO off guard the phone became like poison.

You bet your azz they are fucking scared out of their minds. If the Dems take back part of the government, especially the House, they are in for it.

Lot's of folks in these parts howl and yell and scream about DINO's. I don't particularly care for them my own self, but if voting for a DINO will help take at least the House back, I'm all for it. Like I've said many a time, if you are unhappy with your DINO Rep or Senator, but there is no solid Dem challenger, then hold your nose or whatever you need to do, and vote for them.

AND THEN, GO AFTER THEM. You don't like the stance they took on the Iraq war? Fine. Then demand answers. You think they aren't paying enough attention to the issues you think are important? Then put your boots on and keep kickin' 'em in the azz until they start listening to you. Don't, for God sake, stay home, arms crossed, pissy look on your face, and refuse to vote.

As WillPitt said the other day, we HAVE TO look at the big picture. You aren't happy with the Dem candidate? Fine. I understand. I feel that way about Maria Cantwell (D-WA), but I'll be damned if I'll help Mike McGavick (Repuke-WA) win the fucking election.

I'll vote for Cantwell, and I will keep KICKING HER FUCKING ASS on some things I am not happy with. But I will NOT work to kick her out of office.

To paraphrase WillPitt, LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE, FOLKS. That's how we will win in November. BIG PICTURE!!!

We must gain control of the committees again to do ANYTHING to stop the GOPer stampede to hell in a handbasket!

9. Amen!
It is unrealistic to think that all the candidates running in November of this year, or in ANY year, are going to meet our own personal standards down the line. But if we look at the larger picture, look at the Democratic Party, taking back at least one branch of the government, that's the most important thing. I have confronted Cantwell on more than one occasion. I will vote for her but I won't give her a skate. She's supposed to represent me and many other people in Washington State. And we better damned well hold her to that. It's not just up to her. It's up to US, too!

18. Now I'm not saying I don't think we dems need to clean house...
in the years to come, because I'm all for shit-canning guys like Joe LIEberman and the other folks who have leaned so far right that they're dead wrong. If we can't save our country from slipping into total PNAC-fascism then ALL is lost. We'll have time to make some needed fine adjustments once we stop the total political train wreck in progress.

I have a few issues that mean more to me than others, but if the country is lost to the petro-fascist GOP forever, then those issuses will NEVER be resolved anyway!

19. You are so right,Hubert!
I would gladly purge Lieberman from the Dem rolls, but as for the others, well, hold your nose, and vote for the part we want in powerl

8. Absolutely
Edited on Tue Sep-26-06 05:46 AM by MrScorpio
Will Pitt was right on the money.

Our goal right now is to get Dems elected. The more Dems we have means more strength for our side.

Now is not the time to parse over DINOs, now is the time to take power.

And once in power, take our fucking country back.



The cons' shit, is really pissing me off. They need to pay and pay dearly.

10. Pissed is a mild way of expressing how I feel right now about
the completely wrong-headed way my beloved country is being run. Red hot rage is more like it. So yes, if some of need to vote for a DINO, then so-fucking-be-it. My main goal is to take back at least ONE branch of the government. And while I'd like to take back the House AND the Senate, I'd be happy taking back the House, because then the Dem's would have SUBPOENA POWER And won't THAT be fucking fun??????

32. Your Cantwell....my Feinstein....but your absolutely right - we got to
keep the DINO's even if we have to hold our nose while voting for them and take back the Congress. Once we can get back control, then we can remind the Cantwell's and Feinstein's who they represent.

Keep the eye on the Big Picture folks...big picture...

:kick:

11. Watch who is running as an "Independent".
It could be a full blown rightwinger/bu$h supporter "distancing" himself from bu$h to get reelected.

14. Independent, my ass.
Yeah, the only way they are distancing themselves from the BushBot is by not posing for photo ops with him. But they sure as hell are happy to take the blood money he raises for them. :nuke:

In the immortal words of Mike Malloy, have I told ou tonight how much I hate these people?

Especially because you know they'll do just what you're predicting. It will be a spectacle to behold.

25. No more of this 'for the good of the country' crap
this time around either. Not like after Watergate, where most of the criminals got off the hook and went right back into government to continue their destruction of our country and all we supposedly stood for.

No pardons, no leniency, do not pass go, do not collect $200.

I want these bastards eradicated from the system like they do when you have cancer. We need to get every last bit out so that can't even think about coming back again.
