Since Pelosi, Reid and their crowd of scurvy Socialists have taken over, the Republicans have shown as much spine as a jellyfish (less on most occasions), and when the Republicans were in charge in the House and Senate, they failed to treat the Democrats as the minority should have been treated: Allowed to speak, but ultimately ignored as being irrelevant. The Republicans are so desperate to be loved that they cave in to everything the Democrats put forward, it seems. Now, if there were different Republican leadership, I could ALMOST see Lord's scenario coming to pass, but with the current crop of wusses, it would be more likely to see Hillary admit to actually being a power-hungry dictator wannabe than to see Republicans stand up for what's right.

There will be no "pent up fury" if I read my Republican politicians correctly (and I suspect I do). For Lord's predictions to take place, two things would need to happen:

The Republican ahem "leadership would first have to grow spines and then grow testicles...and after all these years of Bush's "New Tone," and the "inclusiveness" that was practiced when the Republicans were in the majority, those occurrences seem HIGHLY unlikely.

Mr. Lord's sharp-penned satire is right on the mark! Hill can bet her rather prominent behind that there will be no prisoners taken if and when her administration moves back into the White House (gee-do you think they will load up the wagon and bring some of the furniture etc back?). I remember the attempts by W to create a new tone, I remember W sitting down with the pompous phony Kennedy to write the education bill, I remember W NOT cleaning house of Clintonistas at Justice, I remember W not cleaning house at State, not clearing out the trash at the CIA, ad infinitum. OH and I remember ALL of the Dems giving the back of their hand to W, the military, the war effort, social security reform, the staggering incompetence of the local DEMOCRAT officials in Louisiana, the empty and pathetic attempts to paint Roberts & Alito as fascists, John Bolton, etc

p>I could seemingly go on forever recalling the shrill, shrieking partisanship and I, for one, guarantee that I will NOT forget that Hill and the Dems were more interested in promoting their partisan agenda than anything else. br> -- Stuart Reed br> Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan /p>

With all due respect to Mr. Lord, he's living in a dream world.
