So long, sucker!

Why the glum look Rummy?


AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

And now, a few choice quotes from Bush's press conference this afternoon. The first one shows how EVEN NOW he's still trying to play the "fear card". The second makes me laugh because he's basically saying he lied. And the third is included because it may be the most astute observation the man has ever made.

"Amid this time of change, I have a message for those on the front lines. To our enemies: Do not be joyful. Do not confuse the workings of our democracy with a lack of will."

"Right. No, you and Hunt and Keil came in the Oval Office, and Hunt asked me the question one week before the campaign, and basically it was, are you going to do something about Rumsfeld and the Vice President? And my answer was, they're going to stay on. And the reason why is I didn't want to inject a major decision about this war in the final days of a campaign. And so the only way to answer that question and to get you on to another question was to give you that answer."

"Look, this was a close election. If you look at race by race, it was close. The cumulative effect, however, was not too close. It was a thumping."

And now, my absolute favorite quote about last night's returns, via Stephen Colbert:

"Tomorrow, you're all going to wake up in a brave new world, where the constitution gets trampled by an army of terrorist clones created in a stem-cell research lab run by homosexual doctors who sterilize their instruments over burning American flags, where tax-and-spend Democrats take all your hard-earned money and use it to buy electric cars for National Public Radio and teach evolution to illegal immigrants. And everybody’s high!"
