Angel ,'Not Fade Away'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
That's a conservatism I could get behind.
I wonder why Conservatives have such trouble saying, "We got bitch-slapped. We need to regroup and convince folks we're right so we can win big next time." Liberals don't seem to have much of a problem doing this. Might be the practice, I'll admit.
ETA: Happy Birthday, Jessica!!!
Happy Birthday, Jessica!
Happy birthday, Jess!
I think conservatives need to convince the general public that conservatism is still cool and stuff.
ION, Feingold will not seek ‘08 nod
I think a real part of the problem is that most of the current Republicans aren't actually conservative at all, in any real sense of the word.

True, dat. The '05 US budget; pre-emptive, unilateral military endevours; legislating people's personal relationships; attempting to overrule the judicial process—this is not the conservativism I grew up with.
This is fun - remember the Onion article they ran when Bush was inagurated in 2001?
"Bush: 'Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over'"
Well, someone went and created links for all the stuff in that article that actually came true. Quite a lot did. Gotta love prescient satire.
Oh, sweet dog. That's terrifyingly, depressingly hilarious. Thanks, tommyrot.
Thanksgiving is going to be a non-event for me this year--and hopefully by the time Christmas rolls around it'll be less painful to travel.
ita, you're welcome to join us for Thanksgiving if you'd like. Aimee and Miracleman and ND and I are co-hosting a local orphans' Thanksgiving at our house. I'll stick you on the evite just in case.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JESSICA!
ION, gronk. Stupid internal alarm clock, don't you know it's Sunday morning? LET ME SLEEP IN.
Felicitations on the Anniversary of Your Natal Day, Jessica! May there be laughter and fun and cake! With candles, and may the year ahead be joyous and full of prosperity. Many happy returns.
