"Did we give up when the German's bombed Pearl Harbor?"

[Blue Belle]

For those of you that never got this reference this weekend... "Animal House" is on AMC tonight. It is required viewing... if anything, John Belushi's comedic prowess will cheer us up.

For those of us who never gave up: we may have last this battle, but the war is not over.

I am proud of all of our hard work.

We're all Patriots. :patriot:

2. No, but

then we had a real president and congress

[DisVet]

3. So THAT's why we fought Germany! And all along I thought

FDR had lied about the WMD! FDR lied and 50M died.

But, if the Germans.... then why fight the Japs?

7. When do we start fighting smart? And hard?

Just fighting ain't good enough.

9. I was thinking of Animal House earlier today

in relation to the SOTU tomorrow. You know how presidents always start out by saying "The State of Union is sound"? I was spinning a nice little fantasy of the democrats all sneezing "Bullshit!" at that (and other points in the speech) - like the Deltas did at their hearing. Not that many Democrats would have the spine to follow the Deltas. - President Niedermeyer has them all cowed.

10. Ewww We're afraid to go with you, Bluto

We might get in TROUBLE! I'm afraid some people forget just how Senator Blutarsky got his start in politics.

11. Exactly...

I tried to make that point a couple of times this weekend and no one got it.
