Stumble It!
"Now look here, Old Bean."
"Buzz on Boston talk radio is that Massachusetts SJC Chief Justice Margaret Marshall re-elected George Bush. By demanding that the court take up the gay marriage issue -- and force it on an unwilling population -- she inspired, directly, 11 anti-gay-marriage amendments, some in key states, and one in Ohio," gloats Ace of Ace of Spades HQ [via Sharp as a Marble], reporting on a phone conversation with Son of Nixon where the two blokes were "Giggling like schoolgirls on happygas":
A grateful nation thanks you, Ms. Marshall.
Next, whoever put Juan Williams [He's the one Tuck caught during election night 2000 during a moment when Gore seemed to be ahead saying "Our side is winning"] on FoxNews last night deserves a huge bonus. Son of Nixon's favorite moment (which didn't quite happen, but almost did):
BRIT: So, Juan. We're giving Florida and Ohio to Bush. What do you think of that? Juan . . . ? Juan . . . ? Are you all right, Juan? Do you want a glass of water, Juan?
The best part: Son of Nixon notes that, in a President's second term, he sort of has to take it easy, because he doesn't want to upset the apple-cart for his Vice President and political heir. In this case, however, neither Bush nor Cheney will ever run for elective office ever again, so Bush is free to pursue, as SoN puts it, "all sorts of crazy-ass shit." The kind of shit that's sooo crazy-ass that even hard-core conservatives say, "Now look here, Old Bean. I'm all for unilateralism and all, but I don't know if we can just invade a country for 'looking at us funny'."
We ourselves would never gloat, of course [cough, cough], but isn't it a hoot?
My husband - who happens to be in Massachusetts at the moment - got in the car just when the sports radio guys decided to do a 15 minute happy schtick about the re-election. He said they were just great. *grin*
As for SoN - I hadn't thought about it, but I think he might be right - now won't this be a fun 4 years!!!

Our hearts are light for this soul-renewing brief interlude . . . Then back to the grindstone, of course! We must be ever vigilant for those wolves just beyond the campfire. :)

As W said yesterday: He has political capital...and he aims to spend it. Yee-haw!
Hey Bartender! Another round of tax-cuts for me and all my friends!
