Nail on the head

Scarborough: "No, my elitist, lefty friends: People in Kansas City don't want to launch a jihad against gay men. They just don't want appointed judges in Boston, Massachusetts passing orders to their Kansas leaders on the subject. Bill Clinton understands that better than John Kerry. That's why Mr. Clinton was called 'Mr. President' for eight years while Senator Kerry's own Senate peers now call him 'loser' behind his back."

Arafat the monster

"God bless his soul? What a grotesque idea! Bless the soul of the man who brought modern terrorism to the world? Who sent his agents to slaughter athletes at the Olympics, blow airliners out of the sky, bomb schools and pizzerias, machine-gun passengers in airline terminals? Who lied, cheated, and stole without compunction? Who inculcated the vilest culture of Jew-hatred since the Third Reich? Human beings might stoop to bless a creature so evil -- as indeed Arafat was blessed, with money, deference, even a Nobel Prize -- but God, I am quite sure, will damn him for eternity."

Not even I would presume to speak for the almighty, but as far as the facts contained in the paragraph above, Jacoby is right on the money.

Brow-beater

No b-s Zell Miller continues to fire away:

"The more Maureen Loud [sic] gets on 'Meet the Press' and writes those columns, the redder these states get. I mean, they don't want some high brow hussy from New York City explaining to them that they're id iots and telling them that they're stupid...You can see horns just sprouting up through that Technicolor hair."

A MESSAGE FROM GOVERNOR WILLIAM J. LEPETOMAINE

"Baton Rouge have you gone berserk? Can't you see that man is a ni?"


Look, it's just this simple: after sixteen years of do-nothing mayors from Baker/Zachary who fiddle while Rome burned, the people felt a drastic change had to be made. In other words, they had to destroy the city in order to save it.

The truth is, it will be whites who destroy the city by "getting while the gettin's good." Think of Rock Ridge, whitefolk: under Sheriff Bart, the town escaped the grip of corrupt and incompetent politicians and an oppressive gang of murderers and thieves. Kip may not be the salvation on the white horse - indeed, he may be exactly the opposite - but the city of Baton Rouge has taken a giant step away from its regular voting pattern which closely resembled inertia. It's time for a more involved and more critical electorate, one that won't let Kip off the hook simply because he allows yuppies to feel better about themselves (ie., "I'm open minded...I voted for Kip!", the same feeling of personal pride they used to get when they listen to Hootie and the Blowfish).

We are a city that needs to fufill it's potential and no mayor will make that happen on his own. It starts with voters holding their leaders accountable, something they have been adverse to doing (especially in some areas like Central and Southeast, where incumbents never lose no matter how crappy and un-Republican they behave.)

Hundreds March In Anti-Bush And Anti-War Protest

Oh give it up...you lost!

Why are we red?

I stil say the Democrats should be red! Nevertheless, I present the two Americas.

This is 2004:



This is four years ago:



Note the similarities. Realize too that turnout was greater than 2000 and Bush won by a larget margin.

As much as Michael Moore, George Soros, et al tried to make big noises, the more the red areas turned out. Some say Bush made gains into blue areas but to the naked eye, it doesn't appear that way. With these returns inconclusive - the votes are still being counted - a judgment can't be made until everything is in.

What matters is that our guy won and the areas that turned out for him years ago, did so in droves this time around.
