3. Let's add Republican politicians to that list.
Oh yes, let's not forget all Faux journalists with O'Lilly at the top of the list.

11. I see a whole new crop of reality shows.
Do you think we could throw some of them to lions? Or would PETA object?

12. Good idea! Throw some of those extreme
right wing Christians like Dobson et al to the lions. :bounce:

I don't think PETA would mind all those lions getting nice and fat on some RED meat. :9

4. Bug
What ever happened to the wifi bug some guy was inventing. He said that it really acted like a bug and he could send it in to unheard of places. Wouldn't that be a hoot if we had it at one of the republican meetings and caught them on tape.

6. I can't think of anything more worthy
...of harsh punishment than election tampering. The republicans are so hellbent on making their legislation retroactive, which in my opinion is illegal, when we regain power, we should pass laws making their transgressions illegal and make them retroactive, and see how much they like it.

If you break a law that is on the books, you are a criminal, and are subject to the penalties for the offense. There should never, ever, be a way to make those offenses legal by passing retroactive legislation. Our forefathers foresaw this, and forbid ex post facto laws for a reason.
