ELECT A BUSH MAJORITY IN THE HOUSE AND SENATE
DEFEAT DASCHLE/CLINTON/GEPHARDT DEMOCRATS!
No wonder his face was red--calling Dick Gephardt his "soulmate"--
EMETIC ALERT
Daschle has obstructed defense appropriations, homeland security and a resolution on Iraq--
The Traitor's Trifecta--
Now it's shown Saddam harbors al-Qaeda, aids their training, assists their chemical weapons development and is scouring Africa for uranium to nuke us with.
Senator Daschle, you aren't concerned with uranium--you're only concerned with Uranus.
The sand is running out on the Napoleonic dwarf from South Dakota.
His soulmate's getting psychic readings from Barbara Streisand and his face is really, really red.
We're very concerned about your health, Senator.
It would be most unfortunate if you suffered an aneurism after assembling your media felators to watch.
We think you and your soulmate should retire to Jeffords' state to tie the knot.
There's a war on, and frankly, you're in the way.

TRADE DEFICIT: Formally termed a balance of trade deficit, a condition in which a nation's imports are greater than exports. In other words, a country is buying more stuff for foreigners than foreigners are buying from domestic producers. A trade deficit is usually thought to be bad for a country. For this reason, some countries seek to reduce their trade deficit by--
- establishing trade barriers on imports,
- reducing the exchange rate (termed devaluation) such that exports are less expensive and imports more expensive, or
- invading foreign countries with sizable armies.
In the 30 years that have lapsed since the Arab Oil Embargo, BOTH parties have failed miserably in there responsibility do deliver a comprehensive national Energy Policy that would reduce our dependence on foreign oil. This is inexcusable. The technology exists to significantly reduce our oil consumption through the construction of electricly powered mass transportation systems in our nation's most densely populated regions and urban areas. Power for these systems could easily be supplied using nuclear energy, protecting our economic security from the risks of Third World petro-terrorists like Saddam Hussein.

Statement by RNC Chairman Marc Racicot on the Economy
WASHINGTON – Marc Racicot, Chairman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), today issued the following statement:
“Tom Daschle has no credibility on the economy. As Senate Majority Leader he has failed to pass a budget, blocked prescription drugs, stopped pension reform, and stalled terrorism insurance to protect jobs. Instead of leading, he's called for a post-election summit to discuss increasing taxes. Tom Daschle's leadership deficit costs American families where it hurts – their pocketbooks and pay checks.”
I don't want to mess up your thread by changing the subject but I was just flipping across the TV channels and ran across the Anna Nicole Show. I have not seen this before. Oh my G-d! Does this girl need help or what? After watching a few minutes I decided to do one of those fancy photo software editing things too. But it didn't work. She still looks the same:
Out of Control
It begins to creep into your thoughts that you could lose the slim majority in the Senate. You create a strategy and methods of applying tactics to gain some breathing room over the other party. You think you've got them cornered on corporate corruption. But then it all falls apart and you're right back where you started.
Several strategy sessions and tactical maneuvers later you begin to sense that your party may actually be losing ground. It's two months before the mid-term elections and your worries escalate.
The September 11, memorial anniversary has the people reflecting on the past year's progress on the war on terrorism. That week, nearly a dozen suspected terrorists and one sleeper cell are rounded up.
Then it happens. The opposing party, lead by the President, publicly goes on the offensive -- putting the people ahead of politics. Now you're really worried about the very real possibility of losing control of the Senate.
Disregarding your party colleagues' advice, you attack the President -- proclaiming he's playing politics. It backfires. Yet it's his initiative that has again warmed with the people that has griped your thoughts and fear. By now you've confirmed to the people why they're so relieved to have the President on their side.
For six months nearly every strategy and tactic has failed to gain any breathing room and your latest gaff has set you back, losing ground. There's but five weeks until the mid-term elections. Faced with the people's President you're swimming upstream against a head win.
You must push on or drown. What to do? You need a blockbuster strategy to regain the ground you lost. Time is running out. You're desperate.
Should you cut your losses and bite the bullet? You decide damage control is out of the question. You push ahead to devise a blockbuster strategy. All the while knowing that if you fail all hopes of maintaining a Senate majority are lost. Even worse, if the last big strategy backfires you could sink the whole ship -- mates and all.
President Bush is In Control
Come November 6, 2002, so will the Republican House and Senate.
