#1 Good sign - the LLL is starting to realize what most of us already know. GOP landslide in November.

#3 the dems will have a difficult time keeping these nuts away from the national convention- they will have to rely on big media to censure the images to show the warm cuddly stuff - will it work?

#5 It's just one helluva stretch between saying you'll go to war if you don't like an election result, and actually going to war. For one thing these folk are in love with a great and benevolent government trying against the evil republicans to take care of the 'people' from cradle to grave. Kinda hard to declare war and then realize the government they are so in love with is mustering its resources to defeat them and their friends.

I think a lot of these folk who are telling us what they will do when Bush wins in 2004, wouldn't know a miltary operation until it actually bit them in the ass. Might be entertaining, but it is far more likely to be pathetic.

Hopefully, someday, sociologists/psychologists will study this Hate Bush phenomenom and let the rest of of know the big answer to the big question: Was it really crack that brought them to this insanity or did they really think it all by themselves.

#6 I can see the PBS special now. Ken Burns, the violin music, Howard Dean's war letters home to his wife, Gen. Clark loses at the Battle of San Francisco, Gen. Kerry loses the battle of Boston... the possibilities are endless.

#7 That f*ck*n does it! I'm way in the hole from Christmas, but I figure I can dig myself out by March. #2 son's birthday is shortly after that, so he'll be 12 and old enough to have enough sense not to play with the couple of guns and ton of ammo therefor that I'm going to get after his birthday. That'll be well enough in advance of the Election for me to practice enough to have as good a chance as any of plugging Michael Moore's big fat ass...

#8 This is gonna happen about the same time Streisand and Baldwin move to France. The LLL - all blather, all the time. No action ever, just a lot of bad bowel gas...

#10 Can we put these people on trial for treason? Or is claiming you're going to start another Civil War not enough evidence?

#11 Can we put these people on trial for treason?
Talk is cheap, and the First Amendment allows any talk except that which causes other problems, such as inciting to riot or yelling "FIRE" in a crowded theater (when there's no fire - otherwise, it's ok), or intentionally defaming someone by using speech which results in loss of income or position. Only ACTION is punishable in most other cases.

That said, I'm beginning to believe a good old-fashioned Revolution of conservative, law-abiding men might just be what the doctor ordered. We're degenerating into a welfare-state, judicial oligarchy, with "elected officials" that have no reason for existence except getting re-elected, and an out-of-control bureaucracy that's actually trying to run the country to suit themselves (this includes the judicial bureaucracy, as well as the pure breed, both of which we would be better off without). A little blood-letting in Washington may help restore the freedoms we were born with. The major difference between the two major parties has degenerated into how fast they rush toward damnation, rather than the rush itself.

#12 Seriously, the radical left should just move to France where they will be happy. I'd suggest Canada but I think Canada is salvagable and I wouldn't do that to them.
