If you have Republican relatives
And they voted for chimpy in 2004 and still plan to vote puke tomorrow and still plan to vote puke in '08, I don't give a FUCK that they're your family. They're assholes, period. There's an old saying: You can pick your friends, you can't pick your family. It sucks, but that's life.

Now let's all get drunk and party like it's 1999, 'cause tomorrow's gonna be a big day.

5. I wrote them off a long time ago.
I don't give a fuck that they're related to me by blood either. (I can't say they're my "family" -- they're not.)

7. As the saying goes...
You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose. But you can't pick your friends' nose. Probably, the same goes for family. It's too bad that election season isn't in the spring. There is probably an advantage to the repubs, that election day is so close to Thanksgiving and "Seasons Greetings".
