POST-ELECTION PHOTOS...
...THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO SEE!
It's over. It's f-i-n-a-l-l-y over. The mid-term elections. We weren't even electing a Prezzident this time around, yet it was a hard-fought and ugly time for candidates and voters alike. One politician who got defeated (I can't remember who) actually was quoted as saying he was gonna get out of politics. Democrats pretty much cleaned house...and senate...I'd say that, regarding the Prezzident, the honeymoon is definitely over. A Democrat congress and a Republican President? That's never a good scene. Makes me wonder if Mr. Bush is gonna have to buy himself a case of veto pens...
I saw a political cartoon today in which a donkey-Democrat hunter had bagged a Republican elephant. The hunter looks up and wonders, "now what?" And who knows? Is it going to be a case of "Tug of war", with Dems at one end of the rope and the Prezzident at the other? Especially since the Vice President has such a bad heart, he couldn't help out Mr. Bush. Anyway, here are some mementos of this past '08 election...the photos they don't want you to see...
The first photo here deals with our Prezzident. He should be glad HE wasn't a candidate this year. But, he'll be revelling in all his lame-duck glory for the next coupla years...
As far as BILL CLINTON, I'm not sure what the rules are. I know that Prezzidents can only hold office for two terms, but can a former Prezzident return and run again? If not, well, chalk this next photo up to wishful thinking...
As far as the '08 Prezzidential elections, there may be one semi-serious prospect out there. I'm talking about Senator Joseph Lieberman. He ran as an INDEPENDENT this year, and got re-elected. That must be the motto of this campaign season: "Anything but a Republican!"
These fotos were lifted from the covert files of www.spokesmanreview.com/blogs/hbo .
So it's over. Now the fun begins. It's anyone's guess who all is gonna resign because they no longer have a supposed "mandate" to keep doing what they're doing. Let's just hope George W. Bush stays in good health until his term ends. The concept of "Prezzident Cheney" is just too hard to handle.
