Highest Turnout in 36 YearsAnd therefore the biggest turnout of my lifetime. So says Newt Gingrich. I really want to win this, for so many reasons I can't even list. But one of them-- a minor one -- is to finally rubbish the liberals' belief that there is an army of liberal voters out there who really, really want to elect liberal candidates to the presidency. posted by Ace at 04:51 PM
CommentsI'm tellin you, when this goes down, it's primal scream time. As lame as that sounds, it's gonna feel SOOOO damn satisfying - the question is who's gonna drive that last coffin nail into the MSM casket? Posted by: fat kid on November 2, 2004 04:54 PM
I've found my moment of Zen in this whole mess, and here it is: It took four years of Carter to make Reagan possible. And I can wait, if I have to. But my bones say it Texas BBQ time tomorrow. Posted by: Bud Tugley on November 2, 2004 05:00 PM
Just got back from voting in Hamilton County, Ohio. Did a straight ticket Republican vote,then handed my ballot to the four antique women chatting at the table. Nobody seemed especially concerned about seeing my photo identification or voter registration card or anything. I was in and out in less than five minutes, but I imagine it'll really back up after 5.

Ace, I was born in '68. You? I think it's still too early to have any confidence (even though I posted a supremely confident prediction yesterday). If we win this thing it'll be despite the best efforts of the MSM, up to and including the early leaks of raw exit polling data intended to demoralize optimistic Bush voters. (Heck, if Bush has already lost Ohio, why bother voting in NM, or HI, or OR, or any of the other places he was competitive as recently as a couple of days ago??) On to more important polls: have you chosen between Bev Crusher, Deanna Troi, Tasha Yar, Guinan, and Lwaxana Troi in this week's SF Babes poll yet?

Ace, I was born in '68. You? Didn't your mother tell you it's rude to ask that of a blogger? Posted by: ace on November 2, 2004 05:04 PM
Guinan? GUINAN?? Aye caramba. I'll take Counselor Cleavage, thankyouverymuch. Posted by: Bud Tugley on November 2, 2004 05:07 PM
In reminding yourself to chill you have also helped to remind me to do so. We can do this! America can't be as dumb as Michael Moore thinks! Posted by: Jade on November 2, 2004 05:09 PM
"America can't be as dumb as Michael Moore..." I totally agree. Posted by: zetetic on November 2, 2004 05:15 PM
I thought it was only rude to ask chicks - not bloggers - their age. Your allusion to this being the highest turnout in 36 years, and therefore your lifetime (along with your knowledge of D&D, Rush music and other 80s pop culture), made me wonder whether you were also 36. So who is it? Troi, Crusher, Yar?? (You wouldn't believe the pics you find on Google for Marina Sirtis, btw). Posted by: JohnL on November 2, 2004 05:32 PM
I wouldn't mind having the URL which led to such pictures. Posted by: ace on November 2, 2004 05:38 PM
I would, but apparently the term "google dot com" is questionable content. http://images."google dot com"/images?q=marina+sirtis&hl=en Posted by: JohnL on November 2, 2004 05:48 PM
"It took four years of Carter to make Reagan possible." Words of great wisdom, so let's not despair even if the worst happens, for there will be much work to do, no matter what happens. Posted by: 72VIRGINS on November 2, 2004 06:27 PM
"It took four years of Carter to make Reagan possible." Words of great wisdom, so let's not despair even if the worst happens, for there will be much work to do, no matter what happens." Yes, But you cannot undo supreme court nominations. This is really why I voted for GWB. I can't stand the thought of ultra-liberal judges sitting on the highest court in the US. Even, perish the thought, Justice Clinton. Posted by: Fireproof4Ever on November 2, 2004 07:00 PM

Incumbent Senator John Cornyn (RINO - TX) betrayed his party and his country by voting in favor Biden's Afghan resettlement bill in 2021. Cornyn voted to bring in the Afghan who shot two National Guard soldiers on US soil. A vote for Cornyn is an endorsement of importing unvetted, radicalized murderers. [Buck]

Oh no! Hamas' de facto press agent at the UN complains that she can't use her credit cards or rent a card now that she's been sanctioned as a terrorist operative
Why does this keep happening to members of the "political organization" (per Tucker Carlson) of Hamas?!?!
Tucker Carlson claims that it's weird that Ted Cruz is interested in the massacre of Christians by Nigerian Muslims, because he has "no track record of being interested in Christians," then blows off the massacre of Christians by Nigerian Muslims, saying it might or might not be a real concern
Tucker Carlson enjoys using the left-wing tactic of "Tactical Ignorance" to avoid taking positions on topics. Is Hamas really a terrorist organization? Tucker can't say. He hasn't looked into it enough, but "it seems like a political organization to me." Are Muslims slaughtering Christians in Nigeria? Again, Tucker just doesn't know. He hasn't examined the evidence yet. He knows every Palestinian Christian who said he was blocked from visiting holy sites in Bethlehem, but he just hasn't had the time to look into the mass slaughter of Christians in Nigeria that has been going on since (checks watch) 2009. He doesn't know, so he can't offer an opinion. Wouldn't be prudent, you know? Don't rush him! He'll sift through the evidence at some point in the future and render an opinion sometime around 2044. Of course, if you need an opinion on Jewish Perfidy, he has all the facts at his fingertips and can give you a fully informed opinion pronto. Say, have you ever heard of the USS Liberty incident...? You'd think that the main issue for Tucker Carlson, who pretends to be so deeply concerned about Palestinian Christians being bullied by Jews in Israel (supposedly), would be the massacre of 185,000 Christians in Nigeria itself. But no, his main problem is that Ted Cruz is talking about it, "who has no track record of being interested in Christians at all." And then he just shrugs as to whether this is even a real issue or not. Whatever we do we must never "divide the right," huh? Tucker is attacking Ted Cruz for bringing the issue up because he's acting as an apologist for Jihadism, and he can't cleanly admit that Jihadists are killing any Christians, anywhere. There is no daylight between him and CAIR at this point. One might conclude that Tucker Carlson himself isn't interested in the plight of Christians -- except as they can be used as a cudgel to attack Jews. Just gonna ask an Interesting Question myself -- why is it that Tucker Carlson's arguments all track with those shit out by Qatarian propaganda agents and the far left? That if Jews crush an ant underfoot it is worldwide news, but when Muslims slaughter Christians it elicits not even a vigorous shrug?
Garth Merenghi is interviewed by the only man who can fathom his ineffable brilliance -- Garth Merenghi
From the comments: I once glimpsed Garth in the penumbra betwixt my wake and sleep. He was in my dream, standing afar, not looking my way, nor did he acknowledge me. But I felt seen. And that's when I knew I was a traveler on the right path. I'm glad he's still with us. Now that's some Merenghian prose. Garth Merenghi on the writer's craft Greetings, Traveler. If you still have not experienced Garth Merenghi -- Author, Dream-weaver, Visionary, plus Actor -- the six episodes of his Darkplace are still available on YouTube and supposedly upscaled to HD. (Viewing it now, it doesn't appeared upscaled for shit.) I think the second episode, "Hell Hath Fury," is the best by a good margin. Try to at least watch through to that one. It's Mereghi's incisive but nuanced take on sexism. Recent Comments
