I gave up. I kept trying to see who would be my new senator in Virginia (oh, did I say new? Freudian slip) and finally went to bed when CNN was reporting them tied at 49%. Woke up this morning to the screaming Wash Post headline DEMOCRATS TAKE BACK THE HOUSE. Loving life right now.
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

"The voters are stupid, lazy, uninformed, etc."
To be fair, I was saying this in 2004.
Oh, me too. It's just funny to me because those same voters are the ones who voted in 2004 in ways the Freepers approved. And now they're suddenly lazy and uninformed?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I wanted to ask, where do they get all their "facts" from? And then I remembered - the right-wing media. These people are living in a bubble....
A lot of posters are saying that the Democrats will raise taxes on everyone - rich, poor, middle-class. AFAIK, some Democrats have proposed raising the taxes on the rich (or reversing W's tax cuts for the rich) but that's it.

Backing up Nora,
I have read some RIdiculous and easily as vile things on liberal blogs over the past 6 years.
I certainly do not want to be like the folks who brought on the Repugs just before the "contract with America" hell that started all this right-wing control of everything.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I wonder if these people understand that when the Republicans increased spending, they implicitly increased taxes? If not now, then at some point in the future?
I mean, do they believe that if the go to the store and pay for a TV with a credit card, the TV is free?

I thought Ken Mehlman was going to swallow his own tongue on the Today Show when he told Matt Lauer the president was "looking forward to working with Nancy Pelosi." I'll bet he is, Ken. I'll bet he is.
I guess he left off the "with dread" part of that sentence.
