How much do you LOVE Patrick Fitzgerald?

[debbierlus]

We ALL love the Irish Alligator. Here on Fitzmas eve, it is time to determine just who loves him the most! How much do you REALLY love Fitz?

[hippiechick]

1. How much do I (what ) Patrick Fitzgerald ?

:shrug: Type slower and preview your post next time. :hi:

[debbierlus]

3. I fixed it literally five seconds after I posted it!

Damn, you nags!

:hi:

[Tinksrival]

20. Hey debbierlus.......

Have you seen Fitz's cousins flash on his famous relative? "The man in America that can bring Bush down"

There is cute childhood stories and pics when he came to visit in 2001.

2. I won't love him until I see results.

He brought down the Illinois republicans, but I withold my judgment of him until I see the results of his Bush investigation.

[undeterred]

4. I would shower with him to conserve water

and ride with him to conserve fuel.

[debbierlus]

6. Wow, SUCH sacrifice!

:toast:

[LiberalEsto]

5. I would adopt 20 cats

and name all of them Fitzgerald, as in Fitzgerald 1, Fitzgerald 2, Fitzgerald 3, etc.

Then I would toss them a few catnip mice named Karl, Dick and George.

7. It's an amusing poll, yes--but please do stop with this longing for a

"white knight" to save our democracy. We have to do that ourselves--we, the people. Patrick Fitzgerald is a brilliant and courageous man, no question about it--and he can provide inspiration to many, especially as to basic honesty and integrity in government, and public servants doing their jobs in the public interest. But he can only do so much. He is just one prosecutor.

WE have to act. And one of the things we can do is to fight for transparent, honest elections--in every state, in every county, in this country. Because we do NOT have transparent, honest elections now. That ended during the 2002-2004 period, when Bushite corporations gained control of our voting sytem with "TRADE SECRET," PROPRIETARY programming code and virtually no audit/recount controls, in the new electronic voting systems--as a result of the so-called "Help America Vote Act" (HAVA), a $4 billion electronic voting boondoggle, pushed through the Anthrax Congress by its two biggest crooks, Tom Delay and Bob Ney.

Congressional bills:

Russ Holt's HR 550 requires a real paper ballot, bans secret software in "voting machines", and has more than 170 co-sponsors, but the audit required is too weak, it promotes electronic voting and centralized power, and the secret software might be permitted to continue in the central tabulators (the bill is not clear).

15. I think most DU'ers carry their weight & then some...

A little levity is the very LEAST we deserve!

:party:

[Reader Rabbit]

22. In the words of Sergeant Hulka...

Lighten up, Francis!

:P

Seriously, though, most of us here are working hard for all that is good and just. It's just nice to give props to someone with power who uses it for good, instead of evil.

Not to mention the fact that I certainly wouldn't mind procreating with Mr. Fitzgerald! :evilgrin:

[TahitiNut]

8. Other: Ask me in the "morning after."

I'll await the results - I can't take promises to the bank.

[applegrove]

Poor man is going to be exhausted!

:evilgrin:

[applegrove]

18. I'm laughing at the DU and how desperate whe are for a "Mr. Smith

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[LiberalEsto]

17. I knew someone named Patrice

so add that one too.

[Frustratedlady]

10. Too old to bear his children,

but I surely do hold a tremendous amount of respect for the man. If he can pull this off the way we think he will, he will have earned my undying love, respect and my nomination for the Nobel prize for honesty and determination. Doesn't get any better than that! Go Fitz!!! You are a breath of fresh air.

[incapsulated]

11. Who would fuck Cheney but not Bush, lol?

EEEWWW!

There is only so much I can do for my country!

[debbierlus]

13. That is SO funny! I didn't think ANYONE would check either one!

They must REALLY love Fitz.

And, the winner is!

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

12. Don't Love Him At All. He's Just Doing His Job.

By I respect him Immensely, for doing it so well and so honorably.

[bigwillq]

14. They can just call me momma

Cause I would have that man's babies! HEE HEE! :)

[mandyky]

19. Other - He's a wonderful person

He has restored my faith in public service and servants. I hope my sons and daughters grow up to be like his man.

[Missy Vixen]

21. His life would be so much better

if I were in it! :evilgrin:

25. Julie, I have to admit...

my (natural, bio-identical replacement) Estrogen soars when I see him.

I think it's seeing honesty and integrity in the flesh, working for truth and justice.


He's my "Superman". :woohoo:

[Beausoir]

26. Tee hee.

And now we learn that he chews gum and rides the EL home from the airport.

Swoon.

[Missy Vixen]

27. Okay, where did you read this?

:evilgrin:

[Beausoir]

33. Guess Julie will be riding the EL tonight.

<p.s. You do know I'm in Chicago right now....>

Looking for our man.

Grab a plate of fresh hot cookies and maybe some Doublemint? Or Juicy Fruit? You can use those as bait.

[Missy Vixen]

34. Beausoir, I'm getting a great mental picture here

>Grab a plate of fresh hot cookies and maybe some Doublemint? Or Juicy Fruit? You can use those as bait.<

I'm going to have to get a tray. Coffee, cookies, gum, clean socks...the possibilities are endless ;-).

30. Thanks Julie!

He looks so wistful. :loveya:

[warrens]
