To all you would-be prophets of doom
You are a bunch of friggin' cowards. Plain and simple. You are cowards. Weak. Spineless. You are already screaming "OH NO!!!!! THERE IS NO WAY WE CAN WIN EVEN WITH BUSHCO SHOOTING THEMSELVES IN THE FOOT WITH A SHOTGUN EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THE WEEK!!!!! KARL ROVE HAS THE WHOLE ELECTION LOCKED UP WITH DIEBOLD SO THERE IS NO POINT IN FIGHTING ANYWAY!!!! WE ARE DOOMED!!!" and the frickin' election isn't until NOVEMBER people!!! Neither of the party conventions have even happened yet, both campaigns are just getting started, and people are already screaming, "ALL IS LOST!!!" For cryin' out loud, its not like we're just sitting here re-arranging deck chairs on the Titanic!!! If you want to freak out already, if you want to start screaming how we have a snowball's chance of beating Bush in '04 because of (insert reasons here), then you have no place here. If you are DEAD SERIOUS about fighting those crooks, then stand and fight. If you are freaking out already and feel that there is no way we can win, then how about you just save yourself the trouble and leave the country NOW/jump off a bridge/whatever your choice may be so that in February of next year you can come back here after the REAL fighters have fought and beat BushCo and thank us for our sacrifices and efforts and apologize profusely for ever doubting that it would be done.

1. "Waa! Waa! Mommy!" Democrats.
Ignore or ridicule them, as you like. Either choice is effective...

2. I'm just getting tired of their crap
If anyone wants to actually FIGHT and eject that unelected prick out of the White House, then suck it up and get your hands dirty, but don't start whining because your broke a fuckin' nail!

9. Thanks
I don't think I coined that phrase though. We gotta suck it up and take it to those dirty SOBs! I swear, some of these pissants strike me as the kind of people that if they volunteered for frontline duty they would be bitching about how filthy the trenches are!

"Mommy, he's making faces at me!"

8. candyass, eh? LMAO!
i love that term!

thanks to all who have posted these "don't get scared, get pissed!" threads.

i think we all occassionally slip into doom because, my gawd, these evil POS fuckers should be in jail a million times over by now.

fuck the polls. fuck CNN and all TV news.

we are going to win.

18. With ya, knight...
I can work the hair up on the back of my neck as well as the next guy, but it's not gonna make me give up and go home. I was just gently scolded on another thread for my expressed willingness to confront the bullies and fight dirty. Well, scolded I be, but I'm not afraid of breaking any nails. When my hands are messiest or most banged up, it just tells people I've been busy working and getting things accomplished, created, or built.

19. To quote Sen. Blutarski,
What's all this lying around shit?! ... Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? NO! And it ain't over now!!!

20. And it ain't over now!
Even if we lose, I would rather be said to have died on my feet, facing the enemy than to be shot in the back in the dark.
