A senior former White House official today predicted that the Republicans would suffer heavy losses in the midterm elections, despite polls showing a cut in the Democratic party's lead.

The former US deputy secretary of state Richard Armitage - a Republican who opposed the Iraq war - said his party would pay the price for presenting an "angry face" to the world after the September 11 attacks.

"We were showing a very snarly and angry face," Mr Armitage said. "I think it's understandable to a certain degree.

But we're well past that now, and it's time to turn another face to the world, back to more traditional things such as the export of hope and opportunity." Although the latest polls ahead of tomorrow's vote show the Republicans gaining on the Democrats, Mr Armitage predicted that the Democrats would retake the House of Representatives with a majority of between 20 and 25 seats.

SHOWING THE WORLD AN ANGRY FACE? Should we have smiled and said, THANK YOU FOR KILLING 3,000 US CITIZENS?

"We were showing a very snarly and angry face," Mr Armitage said.

Yeah, we should have continued the Clinton strategy of ignoring everything - the holiday from history parade in the name of personal approval ratings. Or maybe we should have lobbed a missile in an empty desert area to show we're sorta, kinda serious.

Democrats, like Armitage are stuck on stupid and still believe that if we just talk they'll get to know us and LIKE us!!

I suppose we should have shown SMILEY FACE for the deaths of 3000+ of our loved ones?..........

Yeah...we're well past that now since the 3,000 killed on 911 aren't dead anymore. Right? Oh Yeah, I just remembered they're still dead and they'll always BE dead and they'll never play with their kids or make love to their wives or gossip with their neighbors or do any of the things that WE get to do with our loved ones every day. So, sorry Mr. Armitage, you fat, bald , liar. I'm still mad and snarly and I'll stay that way for long damned time!

Personally, I would have liked to show them the other end w/ the words "Kiss it" right before we nuked 'em to oblivion. But, hey, that's just me being snarly. ;-)

Showing our angry face to the world? Too bad the world doesn't get a vote in our elections.

Yep... Just what we need - more smiling America-haters at the State Department to suck up to grinning, America-hating diplomats, presstitutes, and corrupt government hacks...

This skunk Armitage must be angling for a job in the Hillary Administration. I wish him all the bad luck in the World with that.

"We were showing a very snarly and angry face,"

It's called defending our citizens from ruthless death, you butthole!
