Their "dream" is the Dems take over of America...i.e. a Socialist UTOPIA.

Piscopo hasn't been funny for 15 years. It's inevitable that he would end up a Kerry supporter. It's what all the has-been celebrities are doing these days.

Automatic drink if Kerry comes out wearing a pink tie.

That's THE pink tie. It's not actually pink, it's red w/ little "JK"'s & flags all over it.

The lamestream was not enamored with Jean taking almost an hour for his speech. LOL. They immediately started remarking on how it was possible that it might actually come in shorter since Kerry was still...ahem, tweaking it. Hint, hint. I thought the talking heads I saw were going to commit hiri-kiri.
