The "Get your war on" dude's message: "Chin Up"
Yes it's a little harsh with "motherf*ckers" being used in about every line, but it's spot on and in your/their face. Here it is.

No more rolling over, no more capitulation. Whether we like it or not we don't have the luxury of backing down anymore.

Chin up.
Because it's on, motherfuckers.
It is on.


Yeah, it is on.

3. I would imagine that we need to re-evaluate how we go about...
...confronting the troglodytes both in campaigns and in person.

I would also suggest that taking up the causes of the Working Class would be a good idea as well. We aren't doing so well trying to drive on the repuke/Corpo road.

I'd also suggest that people like Begala quite saying that Bush is such a great guy on shows like Crossfire. He isn't. Fight the fight, don't cuddle up to the Right.

5. Fuck Begala and the whole Democratic Party
They are idiots, they are incompetent losers, they are fools.

Either that or they are in bed with the Repubs.

Either way they are low-life fuckwads who don't have a clue about jackshit.

I despise all of them now.

Time to form our own party, and take back Democracy itself, and take back this country.

We have absolutely nothing to lose.

6. I liked the quote from Jim Wallis
Which makes his "Hell, our atheists are more Christian than their Bible-thumpin' motherfuckers" quote all the more, er, poignant? Apropos? Timely? I don't know.

"It is now key to remember that our vision—a progressive and prophetic vision of faith and politics—was not running in this election. John Kerry was, and he lost. Kerry did not strongly champion the poor as a religious issue and 'moral value,' or make the war in Iraq a clearly religious matter. In his debates with George Bush, Kerry should have challenged the war in Iraq as an unjust war, as many religious leaders did—including Evangelicals and Catholics. And John Kerry certainly did not advocate a consistent ethic of human life as we do—opposing all the ways that life is threatened in our violent world..."
