08 Theme Thrown Down by Cheney, Dem's don't have it in them, how...
or what would we have done? How or what should we have done about this war environment we live in?

'hate radio' is presently steeped & filled with just how the elections 06 & 08 will be played out; "we" are not manly enough. Forget freedom & liberty. We are not able to protect our women & children. Cheney jumped at the opportunity to protect his bully puppet, cause his bully puppet is not able, let alone articulate enough, to protect himself. A 'must do' item, I am sure, on a dark little things to do list.

So in the midst of his 17% approval rating (perhaps an indicator of just how dis-associated this Cheney admin truly is), Cheney trots out there with a pocket full of stale, predictable, characteristically mean spirited, rotarian humor about 'amrican idol', the Republican's "can do" American corp de esprit, and it is begun.

I, for one, would not have gone into Iraq. And if it were the case my advisor's convinced action in Iraq was somehow key to this environment, the war environment alluded to even in passing; I would not have done so the way this Cheney admin has.

What should we have done? What would you have done?

Cause 'they' are on the verge, no fuck that strike that; they are here & now!!! calling Dem's out, calling us out while implying we are unable, unmanly, incapable of providing Americans with security, strength, vision, leadership, the whole nine.

Sure it's all bullshit. But that doesn't mean it's not coming. They have telegraphed their punch. Woe unto the dem that falls for it three times in a row. And I long for a candidate as 3-D, as articulate as Bill Clinton to make that case.

It is well time imo to coalesce like little rain drops around the response, and hand it to them disrespectfully if that is what the moment calls for.

1. 9-11 is the key...
The truth will out.

Cheney is desperate.

Watch them scramble.

This should be fun.

If they don't nuke us all before then, that is...

2. The "Big Dick" is a bully...
Right now he feels he can say anything he wants to, because the repukes control all of the branches of government. It is time for the Democratic Party to take the United States back, and watch how quickly that sniveling bastard starts talking out of the other side of his slack jawed mealy mouth...

5. This 'manliness' meme is SO tired
The new book that just came out, Bush/Cheney and their penis-waving belligerence . . . as a woman, may I just say that I am absolutely weary of it.

They are completely out of ideas, if they ever had any. Watching them roll out their new PR campaigns is like being locked in a room with a TV set that only plays reruns of the same five episodes of 'Who's the Boss.'

8. I can't see how they keep trotting this evil jerk out there
Of course he has nothing to lose poll wise. The 17% stands in solid stupidity watching fox. His list for travel including faux on all tv's says a lot about him. Sheesh and I thought he was smarter than that. He must watch fox for a laugh.
:argh:

9. They're talkin' smack
just more of the same-same hate-sprech from the
armchair republican army. They're bullies.... verbal bullies...
I don't believe they can back up any of their bluster...
in fact I'd welcome it if they tried. Bring it on you
freepin assholes. Huff and puff all you want.
Your pork-rind stuffed asses are gonna get kicked.... hard.

Unlike you, we believe this country was founded on freedom for all.
And we'd die to defend our rights.. from you repukes who want
to bring about some kind of christo-fascist new world order.
If history has taught us anything.. it's that nazis like you NEVER win.
Freeps... you're goin' down.

10. I thought this was bad decision on Cheny's part -
The Republicans would have to be stupid to think they can run competance...the public perception is that both Iraq and Katrina say otherwise.

17. IT'S NOT UP TO THE DEMS. It's up to the people running the government
who got us into this fucked-up situation to come up with a plan to resolve this shit. The Dems can't come up with anything that the Rethugs won't vote down so Cheney, STFU!!!!

Wasn't everything that happened during the Clinton admin. that administration's responsibility? And so it is with the administration and Congress that we now have. We are the "opposition party" not the "position party."
