There IS something else you could always do, I suppose.
You could just give up, and go back to bed. Or not care. Or live with hopelessness in the pit of your stomach (and don't forget your Tums!). That way, you're GUARANTEED to see nothing accomplished AT ALL. You GUARANTEE the bad guys yet another ill-gotten gain and undeserved, unchallenged victory. You give them free rein - AGAIN.
And I'm pretty sure you don't want to do that.
If they don't comply, the very LEAST we can do is make them miserable with our nagging and confrontations and demands and insistence. NEVER LET UP. NEVER GIVE UP. NEVER LET THEM REST. If they stand by this, make it FUCKING PAINFUL for them to do so. If they insist on clinging to the status quo, MAKE THEM PAY FOR IT.
I'm sick of another sleepless night in a continuing series. High time we shared the wealth on that particular score. Give THEM some sleepless nights, for a change.
There is NO BETTER TIME in the last five-and-a-half miserable years to do that - than NOW. B ecause their "precious" president is down on his luck, and his shit's caught up with him. The press can't help itself, writing at least a few more things day-by-day about how the whole world is now in such a mess - "ON HIS WATCH." There ARE a few more voices from our side articulating that every day in the media. Still not enough to counter-act the limbots and Pox "news" effect, but we ARE making inroads. More questions are coming up all the time, and being allowed to see the light of day. And more of the bad guys are facing legal trouble, bribery scandals blown wide open, the Abramoff effect, and a lot of other fun stuff - FAR MORE of their guys than ours. FAR MORE.
Please believe me - their heads are NOT resting comfortably on their pillows at night. We've seen article after article describing "worried republi-CONS" and more and more stories about the increasing probability that the Dems might take back either the House or the Senate OR BOTH.
THIS IS NOT A FUN TIME TO BE A republi-CON, OR A CONservative! It's not fun at all. They've had the whole ball game for some time now, and they're only seeing grief and bad results and bad press for it. It's like Bill Maher once stated on his show, in a rant directed at bush - "this job can't be fun for you anymore." Well, it's very likely not fun for a whole heap of his minions and apologists who see public opinion turning against them, moreso every time some bomb goes off in the Middle East (and THAT is becoming more and more frequent). THIS IS NOT A FUN TIME TO BE A republi-CON. Their glory days are far behind them, and they're chin-deep in quicksand of their own creation. And deep-down, I guarantee you, more than a few of them recognize this. And more than a few of them are sitting in, and now are being forced to defend, seats that they'd once presumed were a lock. I'll bet there's a frickin' shitload of Maalox being gulped all over Capitol Hill and surrounding areas. The LEAST we can do is further aggravate that condition.
