I notice that the newspaper and broadcast pundits are telling us who the winners and losers are in Tuesday's startling elections. Well ... I might as well get in the game here with everyone else.
The envelope please.
And the winners in this year's midterm elections are:
Islamic Fascists
(Accepting the award for the Islamic Fascists will be Osama bin Laden)
The focal point of the war against Islamic fascism was Iraq. The jihadists were sending their fighters to Iraq, there to be killed in gratifying numbers by American and coalition troops. What was once American resolve is now American weakness. The people have listened to the politicians -- one group that wanted to finish the job, another that didn't -- and gave the nod to the quitters. Today America is weaker in the eyes of those who would destroy us. Not a cause for celebration.
Slackards
(Accepting the award will be Shirley Sternfaulter, a young mother of three who wants the government to pay for her child care.)
A huge percentage of the people who went to the polls on Tuesday went there to vote for a living. They feel that the purpose of government is to make sure that the basic necessities of their lives are paid for, while they spend their own money on the newest technology in flat-screen televisions, gadget-filled cell phones and subscriptions to People Magazine.
Illegal Aliens
(Putting down his leaf blower to accept the award is Pedro Lopez-Garcia-Menendez-Gonzalez, who pays no taxes in the U.S., and sends 80% of each paycheck back to Vera Cruz to take care of his wife and children.)
Yesterday President Bush as much as said that amnesty would be the order of the day. Now that those pesky Republicans have been kicked out of the majority in the House of Representatives, the president and the Senate will have clear sailing on their plan for amnesty for the 20 million plus illegal aliens now residing in this country. Oh .. and the border? Nothing will be done to stop the Mexican invasion, so as soon as Pedro has his paperwork Maria and the kids will be on a bus.
Those who want a weaker America
(Accepting the award will be Dominique Marie François René Galouzeau de Villepin, sometimes known as Dominique de Villepin, the Prime Minister of France. Dominique was the leader of the Axis of Weasels before he became Prime Minister.)
A poll earlier this year said that something like 58% of Europeans wanted a weaker America. They got their wish on Tuesday. Who is going to be there to pull their candied asses out of the oven when they finally wake up and realize the great strides that have been made in the Islamification of Europe? Hello Eurabia.
The first blow to be struck in the weakening of America will be for the Democrats to get rid of John Bolton as the Ambassador to the United Nations. They'll replace him with someone who will not stand up to UN corruption and the forces who want to weaken us.
The Libertarian Party?
(I would be happy to accept this reward, but the don't like me all that much because I believe that we need to defend this country from both the Islamic fascists and the Mexican invasion.)
Tuesday's vote showed that a lot of conservatives and libertarians in this country are completely fed up with the Republican Party. If ever there was a time for the emergence of a third party that would adhere to conservative and libertarian values -- without an obsessive allegiance to religious fundamentalists -- now is the time. The Libertarian Party could be just that party. We'll see if they're up to the task.
The leftist media.
(Accepting the award for The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, The Boston Globe, Time Magazine, Newsweek Magazine and too many more to mention will be Dan Rather)
Ninety percent or more of these people vote Democrat. They engaged in a six-year campaign of demonization of George Bush. It worked.
Washington Lawyers
(Accepting the Award will be the President of the D.C. Bar Association)
Get ready for two years of investigations, subpoenas, hearings...you name it. Everything will be investigated, then investigated again. But the Republicans did it to themselves...every last bit of it.
"WHOM", Neal. The word is "WHOM".
Terrorists, perverts, degenerates, criminals,parasites.
The Losertarians are never winners.
Thanks, Neal. Hope you get about 400-600 REMs from your buddies.
I think he left out the cucumber growers and condum manufacturers. The NEA will be once again in charge of the education of our children.
Thx! Everytime I read that title, I get the same irritating twinge.
Unless it was good for "us." Then it would be who. IIRC,Whom is appropriate when the response is "them, him, her."
This from a guy who claimed to have voted straight libertarian.
Authors of remedial grammar textbooks.
Yes, I listen to Neal whenever my use of pronouns becomes a bit too accurate and precise. My favorite Boortz boo boo is his constant use of the impersonal "that" where a more personal "who" or "whom" properly belongs. Guess Neal doesn't know the difference.
But he has two airplanes and a home in Naples. Guess the correct use of the language isn't as important as it was when I went to school.
Hey, he's an AGGIE so let's cut him some slack.
What's everyone making such a big deal about. We get two years with a do-nothing congress. Since they don't have a two-thirds majority, they can't override Bush's veto, which means they can't anything really out of line.
I'd worry if Pelosi tried to get both Bush and Cheney impeached, but there would be serious questions of her motivation (don't forget, with them gone, Pelosi would end up in the White House), and the bad press would ensure a Republican victory in 2008. And you can bet your ass that neither Hillary, Kerry or the other hopeful douchebags in congrees would want to end up with Pelosi as the Democrat incumbant for president, destroying their chances in 2008.
And don't think for a second that Pelosi would step down in 2009; as Palpatine said: all those who wear pants are afraid of losing them.
Uh, Boortz, didn't you vote Libertarian?
So what evidence can you produce that Bush will grown some FISCAL cajones (as large as his military ones) and begin using a VETO PEN he hasn't used in 6 freaking years??
Perhaps my faith is misplaced. However, since Bush has always been backed by a Republican congress, we really don't know how he'd react to Democrite legislation. I suspect that he is going to block them at every turn. I mean, this guy chose Cheney as his right-hand man, so he's got to have some sense.
I wouldn't be too worried by the graceful loser act...
Ask not for who the bell tolls, it tolls for he.
* chuckle *
True, that. Very sad, very true.
Yeah, Boortz that bonehead was gleeful on Wednesday morning. He noted his "success" on voting straight Libertarian and urging his listeners to do the same. Said it was good to teach Republicans a lesson.
Hope that putz is happy.
