Madame Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D)
Majority Leader Harry Reid (D)
It’s morning in America again.
And it’s great that we have a Democratic chairman, Howard Dean, that now has our party poised to challenge the Republicans in every single state in this nation of ours.
While we’re at it, let’s take a moment to say “So long!” to a few old friends as they fade into well-deserved obscurity:
Denny Hastert, buh-bye. Enjoy life as a backbencher.
Bill Frist, sayonara. Time to renew that medical license. Don’t forget to take those classes.
Man-on-Dog Ricky, farewell. Maybe you can try again in your home state of Virginia.
Don’t forget Kitty-kitty-kitty Harris. There’s an open barstool for you at the airport lounge.
Serioulsy, I’m hoping she writes a tell-all to exact her revenge and spills about how she handed W Florida.
“There’s an open barstool for you at the airport lounge.”
Ouch.
Auf wiedersen, Bugman. (BTW, what ever happened to all those predictions that he would become even more powerful working from outside Congress? Seems like all his old friends didn’t get the word.)
The long national nightmare is over, to coin an old Gerald Ford phrase.
My very favorite: Au revoir, Asa Hutchinson!
What? You too, Rumsfeld?
Hasta la vista…baby.
Most interesting was the celebratory mood of the so – called right – wing biased media.
The second most interesting thing was the Democrats’ feint to the center to win the election, and how Oliver is now calling the United States a “centrist” nation, certainly not what he was calling it, say, six months ago.
And, I don’t want to forget Hodean’s statement to the effect that the Dems have Afro – Americans in their pockets — still.
