Buh bye, Uncle Ted

Exactly!

Bye, bye Ted!

Your bridge to nowhere...gone.

All that pork (which McLame said he hated)...gone.

Your protege's (Sarah Palin) chance at grabbing your senate seat...GONE!

Good riddance!

Now if only Marilyn Musgrave would just concede...

Does she have to?

Doesn't the Election Board just specify the winner?

It's the Hammer of JUSTICE,
It's the Bell of FREEDOM,
It's the Song about LOVE between,
my Brothers and my Sisters

Bad blood for Musgrave

It's no surprise Rep. Marilyn Musgrave is taking her recent loss to Betsy Markey really, really hard.

Musgrave, a Republican who's been representing Colorado's 4th District since 2002, became part of the Republican Casualty List when she lost in a landslide, even after the National Republican Congressional Committee doled out almost a million bucks (reportedly $900,000) for her campaign.

Two weeks after the brutal loss, Musgrave still hasn't called her opponent to concede or to congratulate the victor, as is not only textbook but also mannerly to do.

Moreover, Musgrave's ill manners bleed into her own team. Rumor has it she still - 14 days later - hasn't even thanked her campaign staff. (Again, textbook.)

Musgrave press secretary Joseph Brettell tells us: "It's a campaign matter, and I have no further comment."

And as for Markey, her campaign manger, Anne Caprara, who is in town this week with her boss for orientation, tells us of Musgrave: "No, she hasn't called to concede, but we're moving forward."

Though the Markey team doesn't plan on stopping by Musgrave's office while in town, eventually the two camps will have to touch base - just in terms of transitioning. But curiously, more rumors abound that no one has seen or talked to Musgrave since the brutal loss; she's all but disappeared.

Well, while the Markey crew is here, is there anyone they haven't met whom they look forward to meeting? "All the new members are all very nice and a really good group of folks," Caprara says. "Our schedule is up in the air, but it'd be nice to meet the president-elect. I don't know if that's gonna happen."

Meanwhile, Markey, for what it's worth, has already come onto the Capitol Hill scene with a bang - she ranks as one of the richest freshman members.

It's the Hammer of JUSTICE,
It's the Bell of FREEDOM,
It's the Song about LOVE between,
my Brothers and my Sisters
...All over this Land.

This is Musgrave at her best

Hat Tip to Crooks and Liars,

 Anyone wonder why she went down in flames...

If I make sense? it was quite by accident.

Pray for Georgia

I hope to the Flying Spaghetti Monster it is so, but the GOP and Saxby Shameless are fear mongering with the specters of evil evil libruls Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. It will be the revenge of the stupid white male McCain voters if we don't work hard to GOTV.

Of course!

With the felony conviction and the loss of election, Ted Stevens can only be described as down a series of tubes.

Cheney Indicted

Great News in the Morning.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/ame...

Cheney charged over jail 'abuses'

Still many ways that Cheney can slide out of this, but one can be hopeful.

This is moral and immoral. The moral thing, the thing that everyone knows is right inside, though some are afraid to say, is EQUALITY. Inequality is immoral.
