Bush's response, when people say he should listen to Kerry and the Democrats should be the same as Arnold Schwarzenegger's, when he was asked a similar question.

"Why would I listen to losers?" Schwarzenegger asked. "Let's be honest."

The WINNER sets the agenda. Bush won a decisive victory with 286 electoral votes and over 50% of the popular vote.

Unlike Al Gore, who made a tortured exit from the public stage after his loss to Mr. Bush four years ago

That would be President Bush to you...

Kerry is BURNT TOAST! Stick a fork in him, he's done!

At 8:00 PM Wednesday, Nov 3rd, 2004, I held a formal burning of discarded Kerry campaign signs as a way of signifying that his effect on my life is finished!

I placed a protest sign I had made for FReepin' him on his first visit to my hometown, Jacksonville, Florida, in May 2004. It had his face imposed on the Vietnam Memorial with his Senate testimony words on the wall, with my words underneath about how he betrayed us and smeared our reputations.

One of my sons videoed the affair for posterity, the other participated in lighting the signs. We also had a fireworks celebration of the Bush victory after the sign burning. I invited my neighbor, FReeper "Cup a Joe" a fellow veteran, to participate. His daughters also participated by reading an appeal to voters to reject Kerry on Election day. He has been a anxious about defeating Kerry as I was and he joined me as we fought to expose Kerry's FRAUD.

I also invited a couple other neighbors and their families to come watch.

When all the signs had burned and all the fireworks finished, Cup a Joe and I held our signs that we used for sign waving on election day and gave out a big "Victory Yell"!

It was a great celebration and a real cleansing of the TRAITOR Hanoi John Kerry from our lives forever!

"Mr. Kerry has a Senate seat to return to..."

Yes, it's hardly been used before.

Yup, keep listening to those advisors. They've done such a great job so far (for President Bush).

Sen. Kerry, do America a favor and resign. The Republican Governor of Massachusetts will be glad to name your replacement!

The same thing was said about Gore after 2000 but the Clintons banished him to the backroom. They hold the sway over the party and Kerry has no clout to fight them with.

Maybe Kerry will take over Daschle's place as chief obstructionist.

For 20 years Kerry has done nothing in the Senate... now they want him to be a motivator? Out of all the predictions and things that could happen after this election this one won't be it.

Edwards will make a big play for the conservative side...

Why? He's one of the most Liberal Senators.

He's not gone just yet. We need to get the Clintons to expose his original discharge paters. Then, he will be through.

Here's more about Vietnam vets and Kerry...
This sign was erected by a fellow Vietnam veteran and retired Marine in his yard in Orange Park, Florida, not a mile and half from my house...

After Tuesday, his neighbor modified it...

Hopefully this POS will be totally exposed for what he is and will be forced from the Senate in disgrace. I know this is probably wishful thinking but this turd does not belong in any public office.

Articles don't talk about the SwiftVets much. But I am firmly convinced that they were the ones who disrupted Kerry's momentum, set the stage and significantly contributed to a Bush Victory.

God Bless them all. They have been vindicated. They defeated the Traitor.

Flex his muscles?! Good idea! Maybe Kerry & that other loser, Gore, can do their "Hans und Franz" routine at the next convention.
