Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Mom just called me at work to let me know Rumsfield stepped down, she wanted to make sure I knew as soon as possible. I love my Mom.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

honestly, I feel like I can breathe.

Yeah. I feel like "It's about fucking time." Because I really was hoping the electorate would hold Bush and the Republicans accountable back in '04.

I just called Joe to tell him the Rummy news and his comment was:

The dark empire is slowly crumbling. Frodo made it to the Cracks of Doom after all.

LOVE this.

Also?

I'm actually getting all teary about that the fact that the Constituion clearly works. I was truly beginning to fear for the seperation of powers.

Also nice to know that my fears about the Dalek Diebold voting machines came to naught this time around. I'm also hoping that all the voting problems that came up will get the whole process seriously overhauled.

I do wonder if some of these voting problems have always occurred; it's just the speed and the content of news concerning elections has changed so that we hear about the problems more than we did even just a decade ago.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm a little concerned that Rumsfeld's replacement was the head of the CIA. Although maybe he'll be more focused on intelligence than mass quantities of troops?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I heard a little of the press conference in the car on my way home from lunch, and Bush was asked about the fact that last week, he said Rumsfeld would be around until Bush left the White House.

Bush basically said, "Oh, I wasn't going to make that announcement until after the election, so I had to lie to the reporters, obviously."
