But, has anyone checked his house to see if he has his head in the oven?
Earlier in the week, Michael Moore stated that the winner of the popular vote should be president. I wonder if he still feels that way?
“World leaders” are climbing over themselves to congratulate Bush on his win. Now, this is amusing. Why would these leaders, who so roundly criticized Bush, greet him like a long lost relative? Their realization that the 800 pound Texas gorilla is on the loose for the next 50 months, with a substantial increase in the House and Senate to boot, is making them very nervous. Bush does not have to worry about re-election; he can do pretty much whatever he wants and has solid majorities in the Congress to back him up. This somewhat unexpected reality is forcing the world into dealing with the man, whether they like him or not.
Radical Islam understands that the combination of Bush and Putin is overwhelming. The 800 pound Texas gorilla and the 800 pound Russian bear working to crush radical Islamic terrorism will formidable in the extreme. There’s no doubt that bin Laden’s videotape was a desperate attempt to alter the election result. But, what it showed was that bin Laden’s organization has been badly weakened and the tape merely showed that weakness.
Did anyone notice Edward’s reluctance to concede the election. Right up until Kerry called the President, he was reportedly pressing Kerry to continue to contest the result. Why would he do that when he knew that it would be damaging to the nation? Greed. Greed for power, greed for feeding his ego. Kerry understood that the nation comes before personal wants. He deserves great credit for that display of character. Had he displayed that character during the campaign, he very well may have prevailed. Edwards, on the other hand, is a trial lawyer to his core. Winning is more important than anything and losing is the deepest cut. Well, his designer belts will make acceptable tourniquets.
It was suggested today by Dennis Miller that "Edwards should go home, buy his wife a copy of the Atkins Diet and reconsider what is important, his personal gratification or the state of the nation." That sounds like reasonable advice.
