Stages of Republican Grieving
Edited on Tue Sep-13-05 06:11 PM by ThoughtCriminal
It has been said that there are 5 stages to grieving: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance.

In the face of national tragedy, we have learned that the Republican process for dealing with large scale loss of life seems to be somewhat different:


1. Ignorance - No one saw that coming!
2. Exploitation - this continues through at least step 5
3. Misdirection - Huh? Terror Alert! Condition Orange! Bomb Syria!
4. Finger Pointing - Clinton/Democrats caused it!
5. Cover Up - Redact!
6. Pardons - And a Medal of Freedom for everyone
7. Old news - Get over it!
