Zounds! I thought I would never hear any Republican ever use that phrase again. The Bush Baby owns that one, forever, to the last syllable of recorded time. Then again, maybe it was a little hidden poisoned barb from some Liberal journalist afraid to show his true, treacherous colors.

Well, well. So a top businessman and leading celebrity (and former mayor) of Carmel manages to get the hometown newspaper to do a glowing testimonial on the infamous empty chair monologue. I'm not surprised. I wouldn't be surprised if Clint didn't own a piece of "The Pine Cone", either.

By the way, did I ever tell you I had lunch at the Hog's Breath Saloon once? The food was delicious, but a bit pricey. But what do you expect from a Republican joint? Great service, but only if you can afford the price of admission.

I'm glad you got that all off your chest, Tom. Feel better now? I know I do. I imagined you, like most Conservatives, were just waiting for time to heal that wound. I can imagine how the whole affair has been giving you the vapors, and you've been desperately searching the net trying to find a favorable review you could punish us with. Take THAT, Varlet!

But remember, maybe your guys had Clint, but the Dems had Clinton. I watched them both, and there was absolutely no comparison. None whatsoever.
