8. You would, too, if you were married to a war criminal - investigating Bush and Cheney means
investigating Iraq War Group and MARY MATALIN.

This is why Carville was undermining Kerry at every important point in 2004 - Kerry would open the books on BushInc and Carville and Clinton knew it.

5. Dems should promise to tread...
as lightly as the Republickins did for the last twelve years. That's fair, right? And we are the party of fairness, right?

Warn? They're warning us? Warning us that the American public will turn on us just like they did on them? OK, if that's your true message, gops, then say that.

6. This citizen warns Repukes - YOU ARE GOING TO JAIL.


Never, Ever Forget: George W. Bush willfully violated National Security to cover-up his willful launch of a war of aggression and illegal occupation of Iraq .... and, now he willfully provided nuke-making instructions to terrorists -- if you doubt it, just check 'the google' ....

10. Memo to Reid and Pelosi
Think back just six years ago.....

Remember that GW Bush won the electoral college only through the good graces of the SCOTUS....not by counting votes....Bush LOST THE POPULAR VOTE

Remember that Trent Lott told Vice pResident-(s)elect Cheney that he would rule the Senate "with great caution, and your vote" because it was tied (50-50) Senate.

Bush and Cheney had no mandate....he had no "portfolio" with the American people

but Cheney and Rove told Dubya to rule "as if" he had a mandate
they told him to rule "as if" he had won by a landslide.

We need to rule with a bit of arrogance...we need to rule "AS IF" we have a 2/3 majority....

tread lightly? I don't think so...use the power..use the power to bring the neocons to their knees. Stop them. Hold them accountable and make them so reviled among the American people that they will never again be able to reek havoc on our country again....ever...


Use your new-found power to expose their lies, their corruption, their hypocrisy and make the name "neocon" among the most hated and despised in the country.

Above all DON'T TRUST GEORGE W. BUSH !!! He's a liar, a snake and a sociopath...he'll say and do anything to get his own way. If you think he's quitting, you're a fool! He'll turn on the charm until you let your guard down and then he'll attack again. Neither Dubya or Rove have given up on their dream of a "permanent Republican Majority" for which Dubya will be seen as the founding father. That's supposed to be his legacy....he wants to replace Reagan's legacy....don't give it too him...

Make DISGRACE the legacy of George W. Bush...

RULE "AS IF" ....

11. "Tread lightly" were the exact words spoken by Jeb Bush
to Garry Trudeau, just after the 2000 election was decided.

My response would be, please surrender your passports, and don't travel out of town without notifying us.

13. The proper response to this from any Democrat or party rep should be:
"We'll tread just as lightly as the Bush Administration and Republican Party have on us the last several years. Sound fair?"

17. There's always the old Cheney favorite: "Go fuck yourself."
That one does it for me.

16. Whenever a Republican puts on his/her concern-face and gives Dems
a bit of heartfelt advice, it means they're scared shitless we're going to do the opposite, and that doing the opposite would be politically problematic for the Republican party. Based on experience, you could do worse than simply doing the opposite of whatever it is this bunch of Republo-tards thinks is a good idea.
