Well, they did it.

The Republicans managed to squander their good will with their electorate and the Demorats have regained the House. To make matters worse, Rumsfeld has resigned from SecDef.

I imagine the Libs are wetting themselves with glee at this news and no doubt Cindy Sheehan has given up that hunger strike/weight gain plan she was on.

Kudos to them, they managed to do it.

But frankly, I'm worried. Not that the Chicken Littles in the Democratic party have been endorsed by the public, Iraq is going to become an Islamofascist state. Those poor bastards are in for a long haul full of IED's and eventually another reign of plastic-shredder interrogations. I am really sorry that it has come to this, for their sake. Here we have a fledgling nation trying to pull themselves out of the dark ages of fear and repression and struggling to give birth to a democracy with personal liberties for all, and we go and elect a bunch of pussies who aren't going to honor the commitment we made to them. Pelosi and her pals are going to run from Iraq faster than you can say "Check, please!"

This will embolden the terrorists, mark my words. They will now be convinced of our weakness and lack of fortitude. They'll send Americans home in body bags from all over the world, waiting for the day when the global caliphate spreads from Alberta to Florida and Sacramento to Osaka. The next two years will likely see another huge terrorist attack because first chance they get, the Dems are going to gut security to fund such social programs as universal healthcare. Fuck me. Then, all of the Dems are going to get real fussy when all of a sudden some Government Hack gets to make the decision about whether you really need that surgery or abortion. Sounds just wonderful, doesn't it, This "New Direction"?

The sacrifices of those Americans who fought bravely will be squandered as we cut and run, or as Murtha likes to say "Redeploy to Okinawa." Fuck me.

Even here in Wisconsin we managed to once again get royally fucked, reelected that scam artist Doyle and his staff of dirty-dealers. So, once again, we've elected someone who doesn't trust us to protect ourselves. I suppose that will comfort me as I lie dieing waiting for my rapist to finish me off. We've disallowed gay marriage and recommended the reintroduction of the Death Penalty - not that it is binding on the legislature, of course. But, without concealed carry, there does exist the hope that my murderer will fry for his actions. Oh, wait, this is bleeding heart Wisconsin - that'll never happen.

And then there is the dual dim spots of likely increased property taxes here in Wisconsin with Doyle at the helm for another 4 years and Democrats in power in Washington means that Charlie Rangel's going to do his best to roll back the Bush tax cuts that have fueled this economy and resulted in increased home ownership and record-low unemployment levels and increased tax revenues and the cutting of the deficit. Yep - all that's going the way of the dodo if the Dems have any say in the matter. This means less money in college funds and more fucking taxes. Assholes.

The Democrats may have won, but the US taxpayer lost. Big Time.

Oh, and you can absolutely forget any serious action on Illegal Immigration reform. The Democrats are going to start bringing illegal aliens in by the fucking dumptruck. More people to suck at the free healthcare teat that the taxpayer provides. Lovely.

There are, however, three bright spots as I see them:

First: President Bush does have the power to veto any bill that comes to his desk and they'll have to have 2/3 of both houses to override. That is something. Of course, he'll have to have the will to veto it first.

Secondly: The possibility exists that the Democrats will screw the pooch so thoroughly in the next two years that a real Moderate Conservative will land in the Whitehouse in 2008.

Lastly: Two whole years to play "Scrutinize the Dems." That should be entertaining blog fodder.
