The morning after

Whew!  My head is still spinning from last night.  And what a night it was!  It was a night of meat-- good, juicy, fleshy meat, not like those tofu-and-Belgian-endive nights you get at the Democrat conventions.  I thought we got our message across loud and clear: George Bush has a spine of tempered steel.  John Kerry has a spine of arugula.  Bush will protect your family and smash terrorism.  Kerry will sell your family into slavery in the Sudan because he thinks American troops are occupiers instead of liberators.

But then I wake up and check out the liberal media, and what do I see?  Nothing but whining and whinging, coast to coast.  “Oh, Zell Miller looked so angry,” say all the girlie-men in the press.  “I think maybe he was a little over the top.” Hell yeah, he was angry!  Damn straight, he was over the top!  He was angrier than a Georgia chicken in a bread pan without any dough!  Jeezus Christmas, you’d be angry too, if Chris Matthews asked you a question!  Here’s this Matthews fella going on about “when Democrats come out, as they often do, liberal Democrats, and attack conservatives, and say they want to starve little kids, they want to get rid of education, they want to kill the old people” and Zell is supposed to sit still for that?  How dare Chris Matthews ask the Zellster a setup question about how nasty liberals are!  Zell should have taken him out right there, from ten paces.  I know I would have.  And now all you’re going to hear from the liberal media is “oh, oh, I think maybe Zell Miller is too ‘hot’ for television, ouch, he burned my hand, I need one of those Democrat Band-Aids with the little purple hearts on them.” Listen up, liberal media. When the devil comes down to Georgia, you bet your sweet ass he’s too “hot” for television!  Fire on the mountain, run boys run!!

And what’s all this crying and moaning about how the Republicans don’t have an agenda?  What, you people weren’t listening?  Exactly how loud do we have to shout it out tonight?  You want an agenda, we’ll give you an agenda.  Take out your little girlie-man pencil cases and start writing it down in your little newspapers:

On health care:  we will knock Democrats’ teeth down their throats!
On jobs: we will kick Democrats until they die of internal bleeding!
On education:  we will show America that John Kerry is even more liberal than Ted Kennedy!
On the deficit:  John Kerry looks French!
On the environment:  John Kerry’s wife is a rich foreigner! who is insane!
On corporate crime: John Kerry shot himself to get out of Vietnam!  and he was never there!  and he didn’t even know how to fire a gun!
On intelligence and security: John Edwards is a pretty boy!
On nuclear proliferation: John Edwards is a trial lawyer!
On Iraq: Democrats are traitors!

So.  You people want to debate the issues, we’ll give you “issues.” Tonight, our leader brings it all home.  Stay tuned.

UPDATE:  Almost forgot!  Back home in State College, Pennsylvania, three guys have smashed in the storefront window of the Centre County Democratic HQ.  Now there’s a platform we can build on:  A Brick For Every Democrat!!!  Way to rock, boys!

  1. As one who has worked with the commuity-based services in Oklahoma since their inception, I can vouch for the fact that they provide far more humane care than the institutions were able to do—provided funding can be arranged.  Yet for the truly seriously mentally ill, alas, they are frequently now warehoused in our jails and penal institutions where professional care is seriously lacking.  We have recently instituted a Mental Health Court which can divert the patient to a proper facility, but I have discovered that the district attorneys can intervene if they, iin their infinite wisdom, feel the crime does not warrant following that course.
