4. BUSH IS TOAST!!!!!
Repeated about as often as "a recent surge of violence in Iraq".

6. I posted one of those the other day
Of course, it was meant with a subtle degree of self-mockery, because I famously hate that phrase.

5. Hi Zomby
are you not talking to me, since I revealed myself as paranoid the other day?

7. All of the above, - except -
the one about the yak. I can never get enough quality time with Lounge yaks. Or creamed corn.

You're the only one who remembers the creamed corn
That touches me deeply, although I can't say how deeply. :loveya:

12. I'm with you
A world without Yaks and Creamed corn is just not worthwhile.

9. "The Tide is Turning"/ "We're changing minds"...
I LOVE the idea that it could happen, but it's like we're tempting fate. Everytime someone posts one of those threads, *'s poll number bump up 3 points and the GOP sells more of our Civil rights away/ appoints some Nazi Fuckwad to a sensitive post like UN Ambassador or Supreme Court Justice. :eyes:

10. Other: "Mann Coulter"
Ad hominem attacks may make you feel better, but expressing a foolish prejudice in a political forum where we're all supposed to be liberals is counterproductive and weakens DU overall.

15. I voted "meme" but "drip drip drip" would be a close second if available.
I guess "meme" isn't strictly DU but this is the only place I've ever seen it used with any frequency.

I guess I'd put "drip drip drip" in the same category as "Bush is Toast". I know that in general, the poster means well, and I guess I'm glad they're able to be optimistic. But it's worn a bit thin, especially after Nov 04.

18. "Warm, buttery rim job."
Oops. That's the catchphrase I cannot do without.

I'll put another quarter in and try again.

21. COINTELPRO existed.
As far as it being in place THESE days, nuh-uh, but yes, COINTELPRO was a real program and it definitely existed.
