Help Plan Bush's GOING-AWAY PARTAY!!
Edited on Mon Jan-21-08 02:40 PM by hisownpetard

--------------------------
THE PARTY'S ON, SO PARTY ON!

Where: From Sea to Shining Sea
What: The end of Tyranny
When: Jan. 20, 2009
Who: You and yours

--------------------------

The question is: how?

How shall we commemorate the official end of what may be regarded by historians as the bleakest 8-yr. period in American history?

Should people take to the streets, mardi-gras-style, with trumpets and beads and beer?

Should we fill every major sports arena with cheering people, happy to be free?

Should we dip our index fingers in purple ink, proud of the fact that we voted the criminals out of office, at last?

Is there a statue somewhere of Bush that we can topple?

Maybe parades will be in order with huge floats, each one representing another stooge of this administration - e.g. Alberto Gonzales, followed
by Harriet Miers, followed by Rumsfeld, Cheney, Scooter Libby and KKKRove. Dress warmly: it will be a very long parade.
Caution: care should be taken when filling floats with helium due to the already-present abundance of stale hot-air.

Or maybe we should party like it's the 4th of July. After all, we are about to regain some measure of indepencence, if the Dems don't let us down.
Fireworks everywhere, synchronized and set to go off only minutes after the new Democratic president in sworn in, in D.C.

Or - my personal favorite - how about a New-Year's-Eve-themed blow-out party, simulcast on TV from several major cities? Hosted in LA by the lovely
Valerie Plame Wilson and her husband, Joe. In LA, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins. In NY... well, you get the picture. And the ball will be programmed to drop
when the presidential oath has been taken by whichever worthy Democrat has been elected to serve.

And the whole world will watch as the huge sphere (with Bush's cynical, evil face on it) slowly, but inevitably, sinks out of sight.
Eight years too late, but better late than never.

1. We'll be too deep in the Republican depression to celebrate much.
Sorry to be such a downer but bad times are ahead.

I'll save a bottle of Champagne for that day next year when * is finally out of office.

2. There's no way I'm NOT going to celebrate in a big way, even if I have to rub two sticks together
to make a bonfire and roast a marshmallow.

3. Maybe spending a moment
thinking about all the people who died at the hands of this murdering administration, both in the war zones and in their homes because they were denied healthcare. All the elderly who were depending on pensions that disappeared and stock portfolios that tanked. All the homeless families in the streets due to foreclosure.

7. If that were to happen, I would think that I had died and gone to
heaven. Such justice! America would in that instant, regain most of it's lost respect at home and abroad.That would show that our system of Government works in a fair manner.

8. It should be a National Holiday! Big K&R
Edited on Mon Jan-21-08 04:00 PM by tmfun
I'm in! I think it's a great idea! Every one who fought this monster should be contacted. Move on, Dems.com, everyone. What a better way to show the world that we, the people are not represented by this criminal. We could spell out "good riddance" in human bodies on Ocean Beach! We could drop a big Bush head at Times Square! I love it. Lets do it!

10. And the headline on the marquee at Times Square could read:
We found our spine in 2009!
(Insert: fireworks in red, white and blue, on cue).

9. Delay the world's NY celebrations in 2009 until 1/20
THE END OF AN ERROR.
