My mind was assaulted this morning by some 31 percenters... |
|
I'm sitting in the hair salon an unfortunate captive audience to the following conversation:
Ditzy Lady #1(a reincarnation of Alice Ghostly of 60's sitcom fame): So, what is your full time job?
Ditzy Lady #2 (Corporate Elvira type and purveyer of cosmetics): I'm a fundraiser
D.L. #1: Who do you fundraise for?
D.L. #2: Um....(mumbling)Bush...and some other Republicans
D.L. #1: Oh, really?
D.L. #2: Oh, you like him? (sounding very surprised)
D.L. #1: Oh, yes, I like him, I was at a fundraiser last month for George Allen!
D.L. #2: He's going to be our next President!
D.L. #1: I hope so, or at least the Vice President!
D.L. #2: No, he wants to be President.
(V.D. has to hold her head very tightly now before it explodes)
D.L. #1: Next month I'm going to a fundraiser where Dick Cheney is going to speak, I'm so excited.
D.L. #2: Oh, that's great!
Mark my words, friends, if George Allen is our next President, I for one, WILL have to drop out of society. It's bad enough living in a state where people elected that useless twat to the Senate, but President would just be too much for me to bear.
Excuse me now, while I :puke:

2. By the way, if D.L. #2 has a full-time job as a fundraiser, |
|
what was she doing in the hair salon on a Friday morning? :shrug:

5. I wondered the same thing.... |
|
I guess Bush pays shit wages to his own people, that would make sense. Plus, what the hell is he raising money for, he's not running for anything?

23. Especially when you consider the DNC did the same thing |
|
And had over 1 million people participate.

3. I spent a little over a year just outside DC in the early 70s |
|
and at that time, the state was pushing bumperstickers that said "Virginia is for Lovers!" Some friends of mine got a whole pile of them and cut and pasted them into "Virginia is for LOSERS!"
I see things really haven't changed that much there. Back then, they were fanatically pro Nixon, as smug and nasty as any 29 percenter today.
Just console yourself with the fact that Ditzy Ladies are in a small and shrinking minority. Most folks are starting to shake off that Reagan induced hypnosis and realize the pubbies do NOT have our interests at heart.
Besides, would you rather SEE them or BE them?

...what happens when doctors write so many scripts for mind-altering substances? The ladies in the place where I get my hair cut (hey, they do a good job & charge me less than the barber) all think they're Scarlet O'Hara!

8. You have some interesting info and it now may be possible to |
|
infiltrate their little club and screw it all up. ;)
Hell, that's how they defeated the Dems in the last couple elections.

9. I'd have spoken up! I'm fed up with BushBots and the sheep! |
|
I'll flip them the bird if I see their car has a B/C or W sticker.
If they're talking politics anywhere (grocery store line, internet forum, etc.), I won't hold back.
It's time to unleash our frustrations on these idiots.

13. You should have reminded her to wear a bright orange vest to |
|
the Cheney event. Out of your deep concern for her safety, of course.

15. I would have laughed out loud if |
|
I had heard the George Allen comment.
A racist Confederate with sealed divorce records just waiting to be opened does not strike me as Presidential material, but then who knows how low the repukes will go to shoot themselves in the foot. If that's the best they can do, by all means, run him.

20. Isn't Virginia in the clutches of Diebold? |
|
Any possibility of an honest election? I just can't see the repuke thugs allowing this one to get away from them.

22. We vote electronically, so I assume they are Diebolds.... |

And you're right, I'm sure they will pull out all of the stops for this one.
