1. ....And the dumbass listened!

5. He was predisposed to do that anyway.

Like telling a car to have 4 tires.

2. It troubles me that a drunken utterance to a narcissist

could end a nation's experiment with representative government.

4. And yet it demonstrates how fragile all this really is

It's really amazing it's lasted this long, if you think about it. And I'm not saying it's over. I think we'll rebound. I think people are tired of the wackos.

But it's a not so gentle reminder that a crazy man listening to a drunk can cause nine kinds of hell.

6. Absolutely.

It makes Benjamin Franklin's "... if you can keep it" addendum seem chillingly prescient.

I hope we'll overcome this, but I don't see any organized, effective resistance to the insanity among the outnumbered, sane republican'ts, and that might prove key.

The loonies are running their show.

Tempus fugit.

10. I think the Republican party will be controlled by the extreme for a while

They don't seem to have room for moderates. And the moderates are being forced to vote with the extreme or face getting kicked out.

I think this will play to our advantage in the midterms. We need to.paint Republicans as extreme domestic terrorist.

11. Just paint by the numbers!

I'm not sure that being labeled extreme domestic terrorists bothers enough of them to matter... if they still vote R out of fear of exclusion, or out of ennui, they're still a threat.

I hope you're right, though.

3. Shocked, shocked I tell you!

Or not.

7. Blaming this on drunkenness is silly

Giuliani continued to say the same thing for months later, even though he never seemed to be drunk.

8. Whisper sweet nothings in his ear...

9. This is the guy who did nothing to stop 3000 New Yorkers from being killed in one day on his watch..

He didn't do a thing to prevent what happened.
