1. The trouble is ...
*'s idea of reaching out is that we do everything they want. Screw that.

18. I'm sorry ...
But I think that's just awful.

Firing a guy just because he doesn't believe like you do.

I thought we preached tolerance of differing viewpoints, diversity, and the like.

22. Pretty sure that's illegal.
Or if not, at least inviting a lawsuit.

6. IT'S WAY TOO LATE
FOR REACHING OUT....

All of Bush lies, crimes, secretiveness, corruption makes reaching out impossible! It is over....

8. I don't reach out to bigots
There are a couple of skinheads in Dallas that probably still have a little token of my last "reach out" a few years ago.

13. I agree.
There's no way we can even be thinking about election 2006 with BBV and the right-wing media. Those two should be our primary concerns from here on out.

14. Agreed!
There's little motivation for Bush to change directions now that the American people have shown they won't hold him accountable for his screw-ups. I have no intention of "reaching out" or cooperating with this administration - I simply hope to limit the damage they do. And since they won't compromise, neither will I. I'll do everything I can (short of violence, of course) to keep this administration from accomplishing its agenda.

12. Exactly.
Why do we reach out? How do we fucking heal? We just automatically go along with the bigots and zealots? FUCK NO! We continue to fight, and if we fail, then hell, we go down FIGHTING!

15. Kerry's "concession" speech
Here's what **I** wanted to hear:
-----------
"Fuck Bush. I've got nothing to say that the smirking fuckwad would understand anyway. Fuck unity, fuck common ground, and fuck coming together. Oh yeah, and fuck healing while we're at it. Why don't you red staters go fuck yourselves rather than being so concerned about who OTHER people fuck? Fucking racist hill jacks! Goat-fucking bigots! This country is in a world of shit because you xenophobic turds run like diarrhea-plagued bunnies whenever your asswipe leader says 'boo!'"

"I urge the 48% of Americans who voted for me to move to the blue states where we can hunker down and ride out the shit storm coming our way. That way, maybe we'll get some Dems back in the senate in '06, that is, if Dumbfuck doesn't get us into any nuclear exchanges with former allies first."

"For the rest of you inbred, retarded sheep, you got the shit-for-brains leader you deserve. May you rot in the hell of your own making, you pathetic mewling pukes. "
-----------

...I don't know, though. It might come off as somewhat bitter.
