just a quick shout out to DU. Many said here that Ronnie would
go to the big GOP house in the sky during the election campaign over a year ago. well low and behold what do we have but old ronnie doing one for the bushie's. sorry to sound so cold, but this is just too damn perfect not to draw some sarcasm. I guess old turban head bin laden is not too far behind.


what is really scaring me is that some of you having been saying look out for the next terror attack, or for bush to declare martial law, now that is really some scary shit. lord help us.

1. yeah
because dying 5 months before the election is sure to help Bush.

Come on... the man is older than rocks and sick as hell. It doesn't take Jeanne Dixon to predict he's gonna die soon. Dying now will have ZERO impact on Bush and the election.

3. Or...
I think if Bush tries to make much hay from it, he'll get a big PUBLIC smackdown from Nancy.

That'd be fun to see :)

10. Look, I know they're evil, but they're just not THAT evil.

I'm with you, Dookus... and besides, I just don't see Cheney visiting Ronnie's death bed and slipping a little sodium penathol into his IV while Nancy lounges at the nursing home snack bar, just for some far-reaching and negligible-effect political gain.

Silly talk, if you ask me.

So, Ronnie's gonna die. I'm not particularly mournful, but I think the death of any American President, no matter how contentious, is a matter of concern to everyone. I'll take a moment, I'll watch the fawning coverage, and I'll move on and keep fighting the BFEE.

They're just not that evil, everyone. And even if they were, they're just not talented enough to pull it off. :D

5. well it might not be as close as they want it to be, but you still
have to admit the odds of him dying in 04 is really wild.

9. Not really
I'd guess the mortality rate for 93 year olds with very advanced alzheimers is pretty high. I don't think he's breaking any great odds.

7. Bzzzzzzzzzzzzz goes the buzz that lasts 100 years
Just saying. When you don't have a say in the story-telling, you have to put up with the bullshit stories.

8. It seems much too early for this to be political prudent and planned
on behalf of the Bush Regime. Old Monkeyfuck could've died at anytime. It will not affect the polls.

John Kerry is the next US president.
