Those who forget 'Uncle Remus' are doomed to repeat it.

I never actually heard anyone proposing Hillary as a
Presidential candidate...
until right after the Repubs spent that month
uniformly dropping "hints" that
"they were worried they couldn't beat her"........

"Oh please, Br'er Democrat;
beat me, hurt me, kill me....
just don't toss Hillary into that '08 election!"

4. Sorry, but you can't STEAL it... simply not possible.

"In all of creation, only ONE thing is impossible to steal:
The thing which is offered freely."

Anything I ever post is free for anyone here to take.

Take it, use it, floor it until it dies along the road like a $50 '79 Pinto...
all with my best wishes.

7. Yep, quite transparent, aren't they

They must be thinking we're stupid or something.

Someone should inform them that underestimating your opponent is just about the most stupid thing one can do.
Hence the saying: "Their hubris will be their downfall".

8. "Their hubris will be their downfall"...

Man, after the last five years,
I really don't put much faith in that particular idea.

Somewhere deep in my heart, I still know it's true...
But just how long is it gonna take?

They have already exceeded all former HUBRIS records
by an order of magnitude.
By now, the corresponding Karmic backlash
is surely large enough to take them all out of power forever...

And I cry to the skies, "WHEN, LORD? WHEN?"

9. Hey, you stole that idea from me!

:7

I've stated it a couple of times in the past few weeks, but never as the beginning of a thread.

Thanks for bringing it to prominence.

10. Well, I suppose I must have stolen it from someone...

...even though I swear I did it subconsciously.

Because it seems WAY too good to be one of my ideas!

I don't agree with him, but Mark Warner is the nightmare scenario for the Repukes in 2008.

and they know it, too.
