10th Anniversary of Fitzmas!!!

[Kang Colby]

Hi Everyone,

With the 10th anniversary of Fitzmas fast approaching, what do you plan to do to ring in the event? For newer members, perhaps we could use this thread to chronicle the original incident for historic purposes and share a few laughs.

Let's not wait until "24 business hours" before the anniversary to start the discussion.

3. LOL...you got that right. n/t

2. Airing of grievances

Oh wait, that's Festivus...

[sharp_stick]

4. Has it been that long?

Wow, the unbelievable expectations. The unwavering belief that the piece of shit Dick Cheney would actually get charged.

I admit, I was sure hoping it would happen. Nobody deserves prison more than that dirtbag. The fact that he will be allowed to die without trial really pisses me off.

7. It was Karl Rove....

But point taken.

[sharp_stick]

10. Sorry, absolutely right

I had my criminals mixed up. You know how easy it is with that many of the bastards?

[Codeine]

5. Ten years?

Christ. I'm old.

6. Charming... just what DU needs.

8. Why not? n/t

9. Wow, 10 years ago!

I remember Fitzmas mania here, I was one of the maniacs. Wishful thinking on my part. I hope canned ham Rove at least sweated a bit over it.

11. Disappointing

I wonder what became of him (Fitzgerald)?

I remember that photoshopped pic of Karl Rove being dragged into custody, with wet pants!

12. He's a partner at a law firm in Chicago as of 2012. n/t

13. Thanks !

[Hekate]

14. I wrote a lot of Fitzmas Carols, but never got to sing them. I wonder where they are now?

Man, that's a lot of water under the bridge since then. smh

15. Has anyone told Hugh and Agent Mike?

[malaise]

16. It's beginning to look a lot like

Fitzmas - damn it's ten years already

[bigwillq]

17. Oh, Fitzmas!

Those were crazy days.

18. there was a small but vocal group of us on here that knew nothing would come of it.

and we were shouted down as "debbie downers".

it's tough being a realist in a oligarchy sometimes.

[Kang Colby]

19. LOL...

I'm sure it was tough at the time.

[Javaman]

21. thanks for your sympathy...

it's noted.

[Kang Colby]

22. Sorry. I genuinely sympathize with the position you were in.

I'm sure people didn't like facing reality back then...they sure don't now either.

20. Laughing at the unaccountability of our corrupt government

Ha Ha.

And nothing has changed.

[Kang Colby]

23. Kick! n/t

[Drahthaardogs]

Old DU was more fun.
