Eat your words.
This is old, but timely once again.  Not to mention amusing.

At last.

Remember two years ago...how we clung to hope?

 

It has come, finally.

 

Now the giddy glee of "victory" has passed, and the real joy sets in.  The feeling that everything we've been working for is finally beginning to bloom, just when we'd turned from it in abandonment.  I feel like I won't ever hear the words, "Mom, what was voting like?"  

The cycle turns.

And it's not time to stop working.  It's time to start.

Because the revolution's here...

Rummy's out.  The House is ours and the Senate lies in the balance.  Revenge is sweet, especially when served with a sprinkling of enlightenment.  

 This is the article on the election I wish I'd written.  But then I would have had to have watched Fox News.

WOOOOOOOO!

DEMOCRATS IN 'DA HOUUUUSE!

The Senate may still be in GOP hands, but they've lost three seats so far.  As it stands, the Republicans have gained nothing this election.  Not even a governorship. Not bad for a party that, frankly, sucks at campaigning.

Rick "Captain Homophobe" Santorum and Ken "Electioneer" Blackwell got handily pwned.  George Allen (of Macaca fame) is still neck and neck with Democrat Jim Webb. If Allen wins...*headdesk*

 Alas, in my own adopted state, Lieberman managed to pull a solid victory despite looking more and more like Droopy every time he comes on TV.  You win some, you lose some.  

 It makes me feel okay about democracy.  If there's a silver lining to the Bush administration's shameless botching of everything ever, it's the fact that "Republican" is no longer a synonym for "competent." 

 Now let's cross the fingers for the Senate.  There is always hope...

This is so weird.  I always read these descriptions of Capricorns, about how they're practical and patient and whatnot, and I always think there's no way I can be a Capricorn.  So I decided to take a test to find out what Zodiac sign fits my personality, based on things like what colors I like, how I spend my free time, and what kind of gifts I like to receive.  Lo and behold, I got this:

Maybe there's something to this astrology crap after all. ;)

Fuzzy logic

Tony Blair came out against Saddam Hussein's sentence, stating that he opposed the death penalty "whether it's Saddam or anyone else."

Funny how he opposes the death penalty for this very guilty Iraqi, yet had no problem with it for thousands of innocent ones.

NSF app is IN.

I wrote the last essay in only a few hours and it's just as good as the other two.  Funny ha ha.

 

*Squee!*

I voted.

Now I don't have to hate myself.

How on earth do the Republicans expect to get any votes with candidates like Dick Mountjoy and Michael Jackson?   Fureelz, guys.

There's something I don't know

Okay, so now Richard Burger tells me this:  "I would not apply to Harvard if you really want to return to California. I am sure that you will get into either UCLA and UCSanta Barbara, and with any luck, both of them."

WHY are you sure?  Do Stanish and Scrhreiber owe you some blood debt?  Am I a mere pawn in your clandestine schemings? Whence comes this creepy confidence?

If he's wrong, McDonald's patties aren't the only Burgers I'm going to be flipping next year.
