I was gonna guess that, too. Wishful thinking of course.

On the "far right," she said. jim demint? brent bozo? bill kristol? grover norquist? So many names, so little time...

wayne lapierre? pat robertson? phyllis schlafly?

I hope so!

And it's PIRATIZATION. Named for the pirates these lovers of "privatizing" are.

LOL!

I love your "Sic Semper Dipshittus" I must say! Tons of CONS to whom that can, and does, apply!

Well, we finally saw his cutesy young Congressional hotshot "twin" shoved out the door.

eric cantor never thought it'd happen to him, either. Nor did I. Utterly delicious that he's no longer there. Even though we didn't snatch away his seat, it's still nice that he's so very OUTTA there!

The neoCONS want a war - period.

Probably because most of them never served in an actual war and have no idea what war is or does, and they missed their big "Captain America" macho moment. Or maybe by now it's their trying to channel their "American Sniper" self in a safe way, since they passed up the chance to see combat up close, when they were younger.

Just have that whole side of the room empty.

I stand with my President.

I believe it was the Mossad that was among those trying to warn bush/cheney that something

serious was definitely shaping up - much to our detriment. Back relatively early in 2001...

Besides, ANYTHING contradicta says is automatically suspect. Even she doesn't believe what comes out of her own mouth, if her body language is any indication. Watch how often - when her lips say something negative, her head is bobbing up and down in a "yes" motion. And when her lips say something positive, her head shakes from side to side in a "no" motion.

And there's something else I don't understand about Netanyahu. WHAT about figuring out ways to turn the heat down in the Middle East (in general, and with Iran in particular) - is bad for Israel? How does that work? How is that a bad thing? WTF?

I fuck up, therefore I am.

Totally agree!

VERY proud of him. Man - I never thought I'd be gleeful about the aftermath of last November's elections. But it's been All-Home-Runs-All-The-Time since then - for OUR side. And the exact opposite for boner and the bad guys. I would not have expected any of this. I'm just repeatedly pleasantly surprised. If this is some cosmic "consolation prize," I'll take it!!! With bells on!!!

Well, we sure as hell need to think on this NOW. And HARD.

I wish Debbie, She-With-Not-One-But-TWO-Consecutive-Abysmal-Midterm-Election-Performances would go away. Leave!!! RESIGN!!!!! And bring back Howard DEAN!

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
