Finally. FINALLY! Democrats are punching back

[mtnsnake]

POW! @#!X##! Take that, Cheney, you ugly rat-faced puke!

WHAM! #X!!%@#! Fuck you, Junior, you ignorant no-good crooked coward!

So Bush and Cheney thought they could silence their critics by doing what they've always done best....taking the offensive by hurling lies, spin, and insults at any Democrats who dare criticize them. Well, wadda ya know. Democrats are fed up and they aint taking it anymore.

With Harry Reid and John Kerry taking the lead yesterday, Democrats are proving that they've finally learned how to fight back. In the war of words, they have outright blistered Dick Cheney for his inappropriate attacks on Democrats the other day. I can only imagine the stunned look on Cheney's face when he read Kerry's statement about how when it comes to Iraq how there is no one less competent than Cheney to talk.......or when he heard Harry Reid on the Senate floor say, "In the last 24 hours, 10 of our brave soldiers have been killed in far off Iraq. On such a night, you would think Cheney would give a speech that honors the fallen and those still fighting by laying out a strategy for success. Instead we have the Vice President of the United States playing politics like he’s in the middle of a presidential campaign."

I just love this Harry Reid guy. With him as our chief Democrat in the Senate, we've made giant strides...and just in the nick of time!

Someone has been giving Democrats some good advice for a change. I think it's several people, led by Howard Dean. Regardless of who it is, Democrats are making it clear that they will no longer turn the other cheek. They will no longer be intimidated by anyone, especially chickenhawk cowards like Bush and Cheney. Hit us and we're gonna hit you back...and then some. From now on, we're gonna make you think twice about what you say about us. Fuckers.

Only a short time ago, Democrats would've rolled over and played dead. Now we're foaming at the mouths! I don't know about you, but I love this new look, and it can only get better. Remember that song from Flashdance, "What a Feeling"?

Yeah

1. Harry Reid's wife was almost killed by a car bomb

planted, apparently, by a Vegas mobster who didn't like a piece of Harry's legislation.

Harry knows a thing or two about dealing with thugs.

2. finally finally media is showing a little of it. just a little.

they have been punching for a while. and it has been effective wearing the repug power down

5. Exactly

But just a little. MSN is showing clips of Cheney and Bush over and over, with just text of Dem statements. They just added the one of Reid, maybe somebody complained. But it will still be a battle to get the media to report fairly, and stop reporting lies just because it's what the President wants them to report.

Ack, here it comes again. For the 50th time in 2 hours.

3. You think the media might be thinking twice before kissing every orifice of

the administration? I wonder if the scandals with Judy and company is making the media just a tiny bit more careful of how they stroke the repukes.

4. Someone grab Dick Durbin before he runs outside to apologize

on the Capitol steps.
