2. If the neocons' lovers get a majority government on Monday...
I can't wait for the day these naive idiots who are about to vote for them will start crying out LOUD about how much they just HATE these new (old) robber-barons (it seems they've all forgot how LOUD they cried when that 'dictator' Mulroney was PM).

I'm so mad at these COMPLETE IDIOTS that all I can resort to is to laugh at their foolish & sorry faces...

Can't wait to scream "WE TOLD YOU SO" at them when they'll REGRET their own naive stupidity! (Shouldn't take very long: a couple of months.)

:banghead:

5. just wait for the first Bush/Harper duet ...
Edited on Thu Jan-19-06 07:25 PM by Lisa
Mulroney and Reagan's little performance curdled the stomachs of millions of TV viewers. I don't think George and Stephen would do "Irish Eyes" -- maybe they can put their Western duds on and do a couple of numbers from "Oklahoma"?



p.s. by the way, a candidate who refuses to concede until the votes have been counted is giving every voter another choice -- and is also getting every possible addition to the party's overall tally (which makes a difference in the funding for the next campaign).

4. 2004 election results in this riding
BQ - 55%
Lib - 29%
Con - 5%

It seems like a moot point here. The BQ appears to have a lock.
