TWO YEARS WORTH OF STANDUP MATERIAL

Want to bust a gut? Check Jim Treacher's take on the political situation. And by God, don't forget to read the comments... among the gems:

Personally, I'm fond of the Democrats who even today are saying "We need a new plan for Iraq."

Ok, you've won. What's the new plan?

am pretty surprised myself. I thought we were supposed to be running a highly efficient fascist regime here. And now, we can't even win an election? I mean, I've read all the research. What happened with suspending the electoral process? Why is constitution still in effect? What about our plans to declare martial law? Suspend Congress? We are doing none of it. And I was looking forward to coronation, too. Bumer.

No more homeless! No more AIDS! No more drug problem! No more war! We'll all live in gingerbread homes with chocolate graham cracker roofs, sleeping on cotton candy pillows and dreaming marshmallow fluff dreams, as the orange cream moon shines through our sugar glass windows!

"Bitter much?"

I guess he WANTS this post to be bitter so badly he has to pretend that's what he sees. Sorry, fella. You're confusing this group with the LEFT after a loss.

You know that dimple on Nancy Pelosi's chin? That's not a dimple, it's her navel. The woman is one more face-lift away from looking like Abe Lincoln... Or maybe Vladimir Lenin.

The irony of posting on the internet about how AmeriKKKa was being turned into a fascist police state never seemed to sink in.

Bush. Worst Hitler Ever. I have high hopes for Hillary though; kinda Hitlery, kinda Nixony, very Bitchy.

.... and then there's the Kos-ites, pushing us into utopia:

G.O.P. a 'regional party?' What a beautiful concept. If we could confine the neo-virus into a few corners of the country, we'd be well on our way to a healthy America.

Hate fascism, you say?

that I'm already sick as s**t of this overhyped "progressive vs. centrist" revisionism going on here.

Clearly some progressives won Tuesday, and clearly some progressive issues (pro-choice, gay unions) did surprisingly well in some conservative places.

But I think it's also pretty clear that America votes for Democrats who do not scare them by carrying the perception of being too far left.

Can't we just have the proverbial Democratic big tent and stop this silliness?

We won, and are in an excellent position to consolidate those gains in '08 if we play our cards right.

What, a few days in and you're already quibbling (and this in a discussion on how to divide Republicans. ROFL.)

Not all republicans are bigots, but all bigots are republicans.

And the esteemed senator from West Virginia, Robert Byrd, he is.... what?

--and we've got laboratories to work out new policies around the country.

America... the Democrats' new pet project.

This country belongs to us. The Congress belongs to us, not to either party, not to the president.

They serve AT OUR PLEASURE!!!!!

WE give them direction and CORRECTION when necessary.

WE are in charge and the more WE use OUR POWER, the more they will get the message and learn to behave themselves.

Urm... was that the F word again?

There is the matter of a corporate owned Main Stream Media forever lending support to the corporate owned Republican Party.

Make that a capital F.
