72-25 It's beautiful!
Been over checking out KOS and DU, and just got back.
Definitely a suicide watch over there. They are furious, depressed...

The 1 and only way liberals will see their agenda items become law for the next 20 years:

WIN ELECTIONS

Well, can you imagine the mistakes that get posted here at FreeRepublic and then the real-time pressure of doing it at the U.S. Senate - I would not want that job title ; )

That guy needs some Abilify stat! He also needs to be made aware that by impeaching Bush, the Right-Wing would lose the Religious wing of the party, and that is something that they will not do. Sorry, but Alito won and Ugnmoose can't do nothing about it.

Interesting epithet "Uncle Tom".

If you've read the book, you know that ol' Tom's great evil was -- gasp -- FORGIVENESS!

Yeah, that's right, Uncle Tom gets the bad rap because he had the unfettered timerity to forgive his opressor and refuse to let anyone speak evil against him.

Nevermind that Uncle Tom was only following the example of Jesus who said, "Love your enemies, and forgive those who sin against you", then, as he was hanging crucified on a Roman cross, forgave his own opressors.

Well, it just so happens that, by some incredible coinky-dink, the Dems hate Uncle Tom and Jesus, too. Probably why they use both names mainly as epithets.

But, of course, they're the REAL compassionate ones, you know.

[Eh? Eh? Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say nor more, say no more.]

Reporting on a blog that is wacked out isn't entertaining, it's just giving them an audience.

They must have a couple hundred drama queen threads over at DU. I wonder how those people deal with adversity in their lives. Oh wait, I am starting to remember a DUmmies thread discussing the meds they are on.

I have not heard about Hagel yet - it better be a good excuse - Harkin's is that he is simply an *ss.

A DUmmie to me is like one of those guys in the hospital with a drugged look on his face and he's looking outside the window going "there's a butterfly".

Now that would really chap a few A$$s, wouldn't it. :)

What would be better would be all you posted plus Alito wearing a t-shirt that says "I love the NSA!"

Compelling. I hadn't quite thought of that before.

And we only substantiate their existence by reporting on what they are doing.

Laughing at the expense of the loonies is hardly substantiation.

On the other hand, it also helps to expose DU's complete and utter looniness to people who, otherwise, might not know it's there.
