FLOODGATE!!!
I think poster paininthearse just coined the perfect title for this whole shebang.

1. I like it. And I don't especially care for the adding of -gate to every
little glitch that comes along. The water imagery really alludes to "Watergate" which in hindsight was just a bump in the road for this crew of fascists. Maybe the floodgate will finally sweep them away once and for all.

3. Yes, I hate the -gate suffix for random stuff...
but in this case it makes a real word. A floodgate can save lives if maintained properly, so it's ironic. Just like Bush's motto of "Keeping 'Murica Safer!"

Was just perfect, sorry for my burst of enthusiasm.
