Shame on all of you sick political vultures!
Salivating as you await word of a great man's defeat—what's wrong with you? It grieves me to see that this voyeuristic rubber-necking so dominates what passes for liberal political discourse, and—

Oh, who am I fooling? I can't even type that with a straight face. This is freaking awesome! My coworkers can't figure out what to make of my ear-wide grin, and I've been clicking "refresh" on half a dozen blogs and news-sites for the better part of two hours!

The anticipation is killing me!

3. Being a political junkie doesn't pay.
And it's worse because I'm stuck in an office, drooling over the computer. Couldn't call in sick, cause the boss knows how addicted I am.

Thankfully, she's a junkie, too, so I'm hoping for a reprieve early today. She's already promised me an indictment martini.

7. I know you are being sarcastic but I work with people that really think
this way (your first - sarcastic sentence) and they really think I am being very unpatriotic by hoping indictments are going down. They say I want the United States to be shamed and I am unpatriotic. No matter what you say to them, they think all charges should be dropped and this is just a huge liberal media thing. I am so frustrated with these people ...

11. You should tell them to fuck right off.
I was throwing that around work quite a bit last night, to the wingnuttia.

Of course, I work in a bar, so saying "fuck right the fuck off" to someone is entirely acceptable. :-)

20. If you are saying I am a Dupey McDupster you are wrong
In fact last night my sister in laws boyfriend and I got in a fight (verbal) and you know what he said to me - he said we wouldn't have had to go to Iraq if CLINTON had taken care of it in the first Iraq war. I am not kidding you. They blame Clinton???? WTF Of course I explained to him that it was Bush 1 that started that war. He blames Clinton for everything. I have co-workers that also still think the war is justified and this is all a liberal media thing. It's stunning. You can tell them the facts and they deny deny deny - I don't know what to say anymore. Nothing gets through to them

16. Those people don't know what patriotism is
They think patriotism is the same thing as being subservient to their King George II. If they were truly patriotic they would approve of purging our nation of this evil.
