When y'all were sitting out in the cold in D.C., right in front of that t.v. camera, with your banner 6 years ago - did you ever think that we would take back the Senate and House, and several state governments in a huge tidal wave like this?
Thank you so much for creating this site and getting it through its rocky start.
Love ya, Me.
p.s. NOW might be a great time for a donation drive! maybe give away little blue donkeys.
(on edit: can you please post that narrative about those first few months again? It was wonderful - and it has a lot of meaning to me right now, as a parallel to the roller coaster ride we've been on in this country.)

...but it's good to have faith in OUR America again!!!!!:patriot:
I’m gonna tell you fascists You may be surprised The people in this world Are getting organized You’re bound to lose You fascists bound to lose
Race hatred cannot stop us This one thing we know Your poll tax and Jim Crow And greed has got to go You’re bound to lose You fascists bound to lose.
All of you fascists bound to lose: I said, all of you fascists bound to lose: Yes sir, all of you fascists bound to lose: You’re bound to lose! You fascists: Bound to lose!
People of every color Marching side to side Marching ‘cross these fields Where a million fascists dies You’re bound to lose You fascists bound to lose!
I’m going into this battle And take my union gun We’ll end this world of slavery Before this battle’s won You’re bound to lose You fascists bound to lose!

3. Not little blue donkeys |

but the head of your favorite ousted republican. You could create your own little gallery of losers, like the hearts at the bottom of the posts for Valentines Day. :rofl:

they are the best! It's UNBELIEVABLE How great they all are, and how superior "0ur" site is, because of all their hard work and remarkable social skills.
words fail me

13. This site has saved me more times than I care to admit |

Thanks for staying with us. The Christmas donation drive will be so much fun. No candidates to give to. A two year reprieve from the Dark Side.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
