Democrats,CBS,CNN sound like Tariq Aziz.
i'm feeling good right now but it aint over yet
it's over.
Victory! Victory!--Yes! ah, yes, thou republican Zion,
Truly the kings of the earth are gathered and gone by together;
Doubtless they marvelled to witness such things, were astonished, and so forth.
Victory! Victory! Victory!--Ah, but it is, believe me,
Easier, easier far, to intone the chant of the martyr
Than to indite any paean of any victory. Death may
Sometimes be noble; but life, at the best, will appear an illusion.
While the great pain is upon us, it is great; when it is over,
Why, it is over. The smoke of the sacrifice rises to heaven,
Of a sweet savour, no doubt, to Somebody; but on the altar,
Lo, there is nothing remaining but ashes and dirt and ill odour.
So it stands, you perceive; the labial muscles that swelled with
Vehement evolution of yesterday Marseillaises,
Articulations sublime of defiance and scorning, to-day col-
Lapse and languidly mumble, while men and women and papers
Scream and re-scream to each other the chorus of Victory. Well, but
I am thankful they fought, and glad that the Frenchmen were beaten.

Getting rid of TOMMY DASHOLE will be like getting cured of AIDS.
If we win, I want to harass those Moveon and Act hags out of Philly.

I hate Detroit. Really. & Berkley East (U of M) At least some votes were drained off by Nader.
As Dan Rathead announced Florida for Bush, he said, "It looks like the noose is tightening on John Kerry. He's backed against the wall, his shirttail is on fire, and the bill collector is at the door."
Ron Reagan is dressed in all-black tonight, which is appropriate. (How the heck did he fall so far away from the apple tree?)
