My fellow canadians and I would like to deeply thank the american people for voting some sense in Congress. No war in Iran! Phew.

The most important thing about this election is it allows us to stop the bleeding.
Now, maybe we can save the patient, the republic.
Chimpy is irrelevant. He's the crazy guy in the corner who just got his bloody knife taken away.

When the msm starts promoting St Rudy for prez, will any of them remember how he tried to move his mistress into Gracie Mansion while his wife still lived there?
Nah, I don't think so. It's not part of the script.

Don't do it! It has no therapeutic value. Look at Elvis, he died on the crapper of a heart attack.

4lg, you have hit the nail on the head with that emergency-room image.
BTW, Mr. Plushypants is looking very elegant in his most recent photos, and I'm so glad he's tolerating his medicine.

I like that image. Sure he's angry and whining, but he's contained. Like the crazy uncle in the attic no one talks about.
Really, what gooper would want to come in and clean up the chimp's mess? Jeb's gotta be tired of his big bro's disasters.

St Rudy for prez: unelectable. He had his mistress in the mayor mansion while his wife was going to all the papers. No wingnuts will vote for him. And McCain? He'll be 104 years old by 2008.

2007 is an election year in VA and NJ. This past election VA passed a Get-the-Gays marriage amendment. The sponsor was Bob Marshall (NO RELATION). In 2007 he will be opposed by Bruce Rommelt an all round good guy.
Atrios, sometime between now and November 2007, please throw this guy a link. Just for go one of those Yeah Yeah, another stupid open thread, and throw Bruce a link. It is the only election next year.

But back to the conversation on the thread below. I couldn't stand the BeeGees high tenorino/falsetto voices after a while. That vocal range seemed to be very much in style on the radio for what felt like years -- Christopher Cross (gag), Bread (blerg -- I wanted to reach through the radio & slap them sometimes), and I think several others whose names have mercifully been wiped from my consciousness. Ye gods, I'm an alto, and these fellas sang higher than I can. Barry Gibb and Barbra Streisand -- who took the soprano line?
That's part of what made Bob Seger and Bruce Springsteen sound so fresh and exciting when they first hit the airwaves -- those chesty baritone voices just sounded so flesh-and-blood and three-D real. (And sexy.)

it's worse. There was some kind of public event that wifey had always presided over. The press was there as were about 50 invitees. Rudy decided that year that his mistress would preside, but never told his wife, so when she showed up she was confronted, in public with the press, with the mistress on the receiving line.
Prick.

It's gonna be someone else. Felix Jr. Mitt Romney. Mark Sanford (although he says he's run his last campaign). Maybe Lindsey Graham. Chuck Hagel. One of them. McCain will have to be content with the role of kingmaker and Rudi is going to have learn to play second fiddle if he wants remain in the spotlight.

"Giuliani informed his second wife, Donna Hanover, of his intention to seek a separation in a 2000 press conference. The announcement was precipitated by a tabloid frenzy after Giuliani marched with his then-mistress, Judith Nathan, in New York's St. Patrick's Day parade, an acknowledgement of infidelity so audacious that Daily News columnist Jim Dwyer compared it with "groping in the window at Macy's." In the acrid divorce proceedings that followed, Hanover accused Giuliani of serial adultery, alleging that Nathan was just the latest in a string of mistresses, following an affair the mayor had had with his former communications director."

Thinking ahead to the process of nominating the Democratic candidate for the Presidency in 2008, the netroots need to start a campaign now to forestall the nomination of Hillary Clinton.
Democrats have just won the Congressional elections by attracting the support of moderate Republicans and Independents. We need to maintain this support by nominating a candidate who can unite the country in a positive and optimistic way. Whatever her qualities, Clinton is a tremendously polarizing figure.
Wes Clark is a solid progressive Democrat who has had a hugely effective role in the campaign for the Congressional elections. He can and has attracted moderate Republican and Independent support. He can attract support from people in the South and Mid-west who would never vote for Hillary Clinton.
The netroots should start campaigning now for Hillary Clinton to stand aside from the Presidential race for the good of the Country and Party and throw her support and campaign war chest to Wes Clark.

To clarify the record, Elvis had four televisions in his Graceland viewing room.
He shot four televisions.
One television shot was enough shock value at the time when it came to reporter narratives.

since saint mccain spent the last 6 years sucking junior off, it might be a good idea to keep reminding everyone of that.
Also, now that bush has pissed off the wingnut base, look for his numbers to go for parity with the cheneymaggot, i.e., below 30%. bush has become the town jerk EVERYONE loves to hate, including the wingnuts.

That's part of what made Bob Seger and Bruce Springsteen sound so fresh and exciting when they first hit the airwaves
I was watching Silver City last night (y'ever notice that Sprawl*Mart NEVER carries flicks like that...I was looking for used DVDs at Blockbuster and picked up that and Enron: The Smartest Guys In The Room) and, at the end of a very good movie, noticed a very oldskool Springsteen-like song playing over the end credits.
Now I'm looking for Steve Earle CD's.
Special thanks to the REAL Democrats who bucked the Degenerat elite naysayers at the DLC/DCCC and ran campaigns which proved that people were looking not for Rapethuglican-lite but for a REAL alternative to this fucked up mis-admistration. You've made me a believer again. The good conscience of America was there all along.
Oh, and the DLC/DCCC/RNC can just wither up and die. We don't neetcha!
