1. It's called "job security"

Every seat in "da House" is up for re-election next year. And with the Dems able to tar the Repub candidates with what I'm calling "the Bush brush," they have to start backing away from him NOW. They may not get the chance face a Dem if a Repub challenger presents himself as a moderate who won't be a Bush lapdog.

2. We've got to overthrow the oil barons.

These traitors are destroying our country. Big oil promotes (through their paid representatives in Congress) policies that keep us dependent upon our enemies oil even while we are at war with them. These fat cats reap windfall profits at the expense of our troops and our countries fiscal stabilty. They have no loyalty to God or Country and have declared that any attempt to tax their windfall will result in the removal of operations from the US. We should expropriate all oil and oil facilities, jail the traitors, and remove their minions from office.

3. Real, old time Republicans despise Bush. Now that he is a lame duck, they

are no longer afraid to show their real feelings. We will be seeing MUCH more of this in the future. You think we don't like Bush - that is nothing compared to the hatred of the Republican Senators and Congressmen that have been pushed around by this administration.

Retaliation time is here.
