Bush is my shepherd
Bush is my shepherd; I dwell in want.
He maketh logs to be cut down in national forests.
He leadeth trucks into the still wilderness.
He restoreth my fears.
He leadeth me in the path of international disgrace for his ego's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of pollution and war,
I will find no exit, for thou art in office.
Thy tax cuts for the rich and thy media control,
They discomfort me.
Thou preparest an agenda of deception in the presence of thy religion.
Thou annointest my head with foreign oil.
My health insurance runneth out.
Surely megalomania and false patriotism shall follow me all the days of thy term,
And my jobless child shall dwell in my basement forever.

“Stop saying that blue state people are out of touch with the values and morals of the red states. I'm not out of touch with them. I just don't share them. In fact, and I know this is about 140 years late, but to the Southern States, I would say, 'Upon further consideration, you CAN go. I know that's what you've always wanted, and we've reconsidered. So go ahead. And take Texas with you.' " -– Bill Maher

”If we want England's opinion, we'll dictate it to Tony Blair. ‘How can 59 million people be so dumb?’ Gee, I don't know. How many of you voted for Prince Charles? Oh, right, I forgot. Zero. He got the job because his great-great-great-great-grandmother married the Duke of Brunswick in 1658. Sorry, but I can't take any country seriously where the bars close at eleven.” –- Bill Maher

"Apparently it is more moral to start an illegal war, invade a country, occupy a
country
that did nothing to us, kill thousands of people
... all based on falsehoods trumped up by Bush and his hawk advisers. He told
one falsehood after another to get us in a
Vietnam-style quagmire. We have lost our moral
compass. We used to be mankind's
greatest hope; now we are despised around the world."

The color purple -- this will make you feel better about the election.
Some people like to see things as absolutes. (GWB is one) Black/White, Good/Evil,
With Us/Against Us. But we don't have to look at the overwhelming Red
on a post-election map and feel that we are powerless and
outnumbered. A 51% majority does not turn an entire state Red (or Blue).
So it was extremely comforting to me to discover the enclosed map. We are all
a lot less polarized than many people in the government
-- and the media -- would like us to believe. Send this to as many people as you
like (but I can tell you that the subtleties of color don't print as well as you can
see them online).
We are NOT ALONE.

I'm still in shock over the presidential election...please ask the
Large Editor to make room in the garage! Today, while eating lunch, I
read an editorial comment written by Maureen Dowd (NY Times)
and found that it expressed my feelings well.
In the mean time, please pass the bottle.
Thanks and keep the faith

Hi Roger,
The Large Editor has moved from the garage to the deck because the weather has
improved. Come on down. Kegger!!!
