I had a horrible dream last night...
Edited on Fri Oct-06-06 05:45 PM by Rosco T.
it was the morning of 11/8.

It was an electoral rout... FIFTY seat gain in the House, SEVENTEEN seat gain in the Senate.

Instant Impeachment time...

one week later... (this is before the swearing in of the new members)

a suitcase nuke goes off in San Diego.

Ill Dunce declares it an Iranian plot, aided by Al Queda.. (yea, I can't spell, ok?)

after five days of panic, recovery, death, et.al. Chimp declares a 'national emergency', invokes "martial law" and dissolves the Congress until 'new elections can be held to recover from this tragedy....'

elections which never come...

tell me I just had too much Habenrao sauce on my bean burritos last night?

5. And ya wonder why moving back home to Canada ...
has become a very real possibility for me. I may not be able to spell habeus corpus but I know I don't got it no more.

6. It'll Never Happen
This bunch of Dems would never ever impeach Bush - he's too easy to triangulate off of.

7. I think it would be very hard, at this point, for the repubs to pull
something obvious. I think people are very leery, and Rove must be at his wits end trying to come up with something.

11. Don't think even Mr. Bush has the authority
to dissolve Congress. It is a co-equal branch of government, even if they don't act in that fashion.

13. Shit Rosco
I had the same thought the other day. I would give it a few weeks after we take congress. After the new year even so the neocons can really push the "We told you so" BS. It would most definitely be a MIHOP also IMO

15. Now you're creeping me out.
I can so see that happening. 'We told you the terrorists would win if you voted for a Dem congress.' I honestly wouldn't put it past these despots.
