That was ugly...

All I can say is... ouch.

Ok, I can say more than that. The Republicans got hammered. From what I can tell it was a combination of scandals and the war in Iraq. Which leaves us the unpleasant reality of a Democrat controlled House of Representatives, and possibly the senate as well.

Time for the Democrats to put up or shut up. For six years they've done nothing and offered nothing except second guessing and wild criticism of President Bush. They have yet to produce a plan for Iraq, and most of their actions in the War on Terror seem designed to help our enemies and make it harder for us to gather intelligence. I'm pretty concerned about just how much damage they'll cause in the next two years.

Let's hope it doesn't happen. Let's hope they tinker around with social issues and try to raise taxes and open twenty investigations into the Bush administration and behave in the obnoxious way that Democrats in power generally do. Couple that with a decent conservative Republican candidate in two years and we'll take back the government and put the grown-ups back in charge, rather than the juveniles who are about to start running the show.

Really? You mean you actually think that Democrats aren't just misguided but area actually actively trying to help al Qaeda?

Somewhat related, would you agree or disagree with the statement "God designed humans to be evil"?

I disagree. We were designed with the capacity for choice, but not designed to be evil.
