Eruption of Mt. Republican
Posted on 01/15/2005 6:16:07 AM PST by NorthOfTheRiver
As the dust and ash settles from the recent earthshaking eruption of Mt. Republican, I think it's time to take stock of where we are in now red America.
Dazed and confused blue-media types are still stumbling around unshaven and disheveled, trying to comprehend it all. I feared somebody had died when newspapers were draped in funereal, foreboding headlines like, “What will happen to us now?!” or “Where will we go?!” Classic headlines like, “BUSH WINS!” or “REPUBLICAN SWEEP!” mysteriously vanished.
The endangered species, formerly known as the Big Three networks, are re-evaluating their existence. Dan Rather, shaky, pale and possibly in need of medical attention on election night, mumbled incoherently; unnerved that blue concubine CBS was forced to preside over the travesty. After all, his sources for the fake National Guard documents were “unimpeachably” fake!
Sadly, even a disgusted Canada has declared itself off limits for desperate, fleeing blues and threatened to close its borders.
You blues should have seen this coming!

Eruption of Mt. Republican
This is a great day..Two great columns posted and both nail it while making me laugh!

8. Do not nominate anyone who has ever bad-mouthed our beloved military in any way, shape or form or compared our adored troops to Genghis Kahn (especially using soft Gs) unless they have groveled profusely, begged forgiveness and been sufficiently contrite, no matter how many medals weigh them down. We reds don't forget when a blue turncoat with long, shaggy hair and a stuffy, pompous accent, calls our boys war criminals.
9. Negotiate a peace treaty with Swift Boat Veterans for Truth and declare war on movie/rock star types. These people are notorious hypocrites who howl about the environment as they dash about in limos and private jets spewing out carbon dioxide and burning fossil fuels like mad in their multiple mansions. We reds see right through these world-class phonies. They'll be the first ones to vacate the country if the oil dries up and the bottom falls out.

Great advice!
BTTT!
... Just 10 years ago Washington trembled because many Republicans who had won in the cymbal-crash elections of 1994 had vowed to abolish the Education Department. Education, they said, is a quintessentially state and local responsibility. But soon Republicans in Congress and a Republican president were deepening Washington's reach into education. In 1996 Republican appropriators gave the department a 15.7 percent increase in discretionary spending. And No Child Left Behind increased federal education spending more than any increase requested by President Clinton, who was the teachers' unions' poodle. ...

P.J. O'Rourke: An Alternative Inaugural Address
The Weekly Standard ^ | 01/24/05 | P.J. O'Rourke
The election has been over for more than two months now and we’re still gloating over our victory, but now we have grown so over confident that we are giving the losers advice on how to win the next election. The points that this writer has made are all common sense conclusions that the most brain dead Liberal must have already recognized.
Before we start giving Liberals advice, we need to back off, take a long look at what just happened, and come to grips with the fact that the Democrats just came within +-150,000 votes in Ohio of defeating an incumbent war time president. And they did it even though they ran a candidate with no record other than that of a traitorous New England liberal. What we need to be doing right now, instead of gloating, is to look closely at how the Democrat political machine pulled this off and how we can prevent it from happening again in 2008. If the Democrats are allowed to repeat this in 2008 with a candidate carrying less baggage than did Kerry, they will in all likelihood win.
So how did the Democrats take a man who should have been jailed for treason, or at least ran out of town on a rail, and push him to within a hair’s breadth of becoming President of the United States and Commander in Chief of our military forces? They did it simply by controlling the flow of information in this country and, in my opinion, by criminally manipulating the electoral process in several states.
Before the next Presidential election, among other things, we need to do all we can to change the MSM into news reporting institutions instead of Democrat cheer leading sections, and we need to insist that congress create a standardized nationwide election system that the Democrats cannot subvert.
5. Do not nominate a candidate who divorces a million-heiress to marry a billion-heiress, spends his weekends in Nantucket windsurfing and is stupid enough to do it in front of the press. Nobody windsurfs in Nebraska.
6. No pink ties, fake tans, manicures, black hair dye or Botox. Do you think martyred blue icon JFK owned any pink ties? I don't think so. Lose the pink ties already. The fake orange tan was a disaster, transforming the frozen, Botoxed face into a technicolor death mask. And common sense tells you not to announce your man is taking a manicure to prepare for the big debate. Or, just go all the way and nominate a woman for whom these beauty regimens are normal.
LOL! The fake orange tan did indeed transform the frozen Botoxed face into a technicolor death mask.
GREAT Saturday morning read! Thanks!
This was a great one. Almost (ah say, ALMOST) makes me wish Kerry and his klan were back in the newz......
Thanks for diggin up this older article, NOTR. And welcome to FR!
Sorry, Mr. Cheney, but this was just flat-out funny:
"10. Never nominate a second banana who is way cuter and younger than your lead man. Instead, nominate a dumpy, bald, grandfatherly figure who speaks in a monotone, is hooked up to a heart monitor or, even better, an oxygen tank. Your main guy will shine. It works for us."
Hey,now..there are a lot of us Cheney chicks around. ;)
