2002 Predictions

12/21/01

[Mensch]

I'll start the ball rolling by predicting that the anthrax scare will be found to have been perpetrated by a domestic leftist. We will be fighting in Iraq. The GOP will regain the Senate. Hillary will be outed. Bubba will be indicted. Rush will regain fully functional hearing. US-China relations will have deteriorated. The economy will have rebounded, and Daschle will be very disappointed.

Nice try, but they have to go through the Packers to get there, and Mr. Favre has their number this year.

Another prediction then... Favre will be injured in the first week of the playoffs, and that 'other guy' (who never gets to play, what's his name anyway?) will not be able to overwhelm the Bears defense in quite the same Favreian (?) manner.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

.....And Arafat will declare another cease-fire....

[Revolting cat!]

2003 predictions will be made in December.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

I agree.

America is not sick of the ungodliness of it's residents enought to clean house. Hence, Hillary and Bubba will prosper. (Part of) God's judgement on America

[RedBloodedAmerican]

There's a good chance you may be right.

[oldvike]

Bring on 2002, Lord knows it can't be any worse than 2001.

[goldstategop]

The Democrats take over Congress. Partisan gridlock returns to Washington D.C til 2004.

[tjg]

I will resolve not to spend so much time at FR next year and abandon my resolution by Jan 2.

[aculeus]

Every single day someone will post a GOTTA SEE THIS thing as breaking news.

[Falcon4.0]

This is great timing.
I've just had a premonition that Johnny Bin walker will become the darling of the elite press corp. and be given serious air time to explain what is wrong with America and why the rest of the World hates us. Which by the way is the same reason why most journalists became journalists.

[IRtorqued]

2) Trent Lott will step down as minority leader.

but his hair piece will retain the title.

[brewcrew]

Yeah, who is that guy anyway? ;^D

[L.N. Smithee]

A well known Hollywood star will be arrested on a drug charge. ;-}

...and the sun will rise in the east every day of the year...

[Jhoffa_]

Tom Dassole will appoint himself "Head bastard and dictator for life" over the Senate, put on an eyepatch, chase the other members out and raise his own flag before wandering aimlessly around the building with a fifth of jack yelling "It's Mine.. ALL MINE!"

Geraldo's moustache will nearly overthrow the rest of his face in a failed coup attempt.

Hillary Clinton will just make it official and start wearing pentagram earrings.

By the years end, I may get the title to my New Yorker back.

Henry Waxman will kill Dan Burton through "nostril induced suffocation"

Congress will introduce "Nose Control" Legslation effectively banning nostrils unless a person can demonstrate a need for them (Law Enforcement and Government workers will be exempt)

Remember, you heard it here first.
