I'm going to be ill.
Casualties are way up since the election, according to www.icasualties.org. Highest rate since April. I hate the callous bastards who created this fresh hell.

1. Think of it as a reverse TET offensive, played
out over several months. By next year, all we'll need is the Iraqi war version of Westmoreland claiming victory and requesting more troops, and Walter Cronkite saying the war is unwinnable. And somewhere in between, the truth.

3. An attorney friend's first action on 11/3
was to realize what happenned and he then threw up. The one positive thing in our conservative work place is that the Bushies have kept their mouths shut because of the strong feelings we hold against Bush. I think they know they would be smacked if there was any gloating.

4. Were we not all here ready to gloat big time when Kerry won?
I recall the sentiment was we were going to rub the pubs faces in it. A simple DU search for gloat and Kerry win should confirm.

6. And I'm disgusted
The electorate saw this coming. They don't give a rat's ass about "the troops."

Happy Veteran's Day :argh:
