#2 I'd like to think the American public would be smart enough to be outraged by these comments, but unfortunately, they are not. Worse, they suck up this stuff like milkshakes through a straw.

Sigh. Is it wrong for me to wish that these traitors would be sucked up by a freak tornado and thrown into space where they would explode into a billion pieces and vanish from our lives forever?

PS. Rafael - "civil" was good enough to make me lol!

#3 I fear you're right. The latest results from www.rasmussenreports.com aren't good: Kerry 48%, Bush 42%.

Anybody want to speculate what happens to retention rates in the military if Kerry wins? My guess is, they abruptly go in the crapper.

#4 Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry said of Bushâs Iraq policy, "Since I fought in Vietnam, I have not seen an arrogance in our foreign policy like this."

Nice to see some self-criticism from Kerry for a change.

#6 Civil war? You mean the War Between the States?

The War of Northern Aggression, as my southern mother-in-law still calls it.
