"With the Democratic Party splattered at his feet in little blue puddles, John Kerry told the crushed crowd at Faneuil Hall in Boston about his concession call to President Bush.

"We had a good conversation," the senator said. "And we talked about the danger of division in our country and the need, the desperate need, for unity, for finding the common ground, coming together. Today I hope that we can begin the healing."

Democrat: Heal thyself.

W. doesn't see division as a danger. He sees it as a wingman.

The president got re-elected by dividing the country along fault lines of fear, intolerance, ignorance and religious rule. He doesn't want to heal rifts; he wants to bring any riffraff who disagree to heel."

Good article!

1. Pundit, heal thyself,

If you had this much understanding of the situation, why did you help them destroy the Democratic party?

5. the woman was relentless in her attacks on Gore, Clinton, Kerry

and the Dem.'s. What the hell is she anyway?

[Maeve]

7. She is a pit bull

Or a pit viper, if you prefer--ready to spit venom at any target that will make her acclaimed by someone. Attack is her main mode; she just does it with more finesse than many others.

2. is my memory failing?

wasn't she the one that was unrelenting in nit-picking Al Gore 2 pieces? wasn't she rending her garments over Clinton?? Am I confusing her w/ someone else?

4. Yes, that was MoDo the Ho...

She's clearly been anti-Chimp since then, but it's a little too late now...

3. This smart assed bitch has no value as a human being

those ramblings have no merit.

6. Just emailed her that she is part of the problem and the dem,'s don't

need a faithhealer as her.

In Mourning,
