    I'm just saying the winners are not Pelosi or Kennedy Democrats.

    No, no you're not. You're saying it's no surprise for the Democrats to suddenly own what you call a Dem stronghold, but what is actually a very Republican area. And you're wrong.

    Shooter:

    Sorry if you can't follow a thread, idiot.

    One set of expectations refers to Windu's remarks about my predictions that the GOP would hold on to the Senate and the house losses would be minimal. The other set of expectations has to do with those who think that flag-waving patriotism is going to shift to the Democrats for the foreseeable future. Only if you consider that future two years or less. Which, with Al Queda's morale victory today, may never come.

    Pelosi as Madame Speaker. Ted Kennedy as a chairman. Yeah, they sure came out on the short end.

    Name-calling? That's what you think is in your best interest? Really?

    Probably true. But I think it shows the type of "anyone but the Republicans" attitude that, for better or worse, has infected a lot of this country.

    The story itself is here: http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/elections/2006/stories/110806dnmetdarace.16b9fc57.html

    Highlights include the first black DA in Dallas County history and the first Democratic DA since 1986. One of the first female judges in the county who was very respected by the establishment lost her seat to a man with no judicial or electoral experience, just a promise to be different.

    It's that attitude, especially in a fairly conservative metropolitan area, that's been the Republican's real enemy tonight.

    One personal insult deserves another, I guess.

    No, shooter. That's what's within his mental capacity.

    Reading comprehension: learn it, love it.

    I CLEARLY suggested that one death after Saddam's death means his death is an insignifcant footnote in an otherwise fucked up situation. His death isn't making Iraq a better place, isn't changing anything on the ground, nor making this fucked up war any more successful for us or anyone else.

    Again ... mouth out those words if you need to. Read it twice, better still, ask someone to read it for you if it has too many big words or concepts. It's clear something is getting lost in translation.

    I didn't attack you. Your post made no sense and was incoherent.

    Moving on, though.

    I still don't understand your point, except that the Democrats = terrorists are suddenly rejoicing across the world.

    Which, frankly, seems a little reactionary and not terribly logical.

    Wow. Get this Bubbler. I made a mistake. You didn't say that.

    But the liberal press started whining as soon as the death count reached 10 at the outset - as if how many of these will Americans put up with? I hated to see anyone make that sacrifice and it would have been nice to have gone in and kicked ass like we did in Kuwait. But that was the exception in war, not the rule.
