that Dick only gets six months of secret service protection...

I should have added that this is in Northern Virginia. Mostly Fairfax and Prince William counties. I live inside the Beltway. I heard from a poll worker an hour ago that almost 600 voters had voted early. We're expecting very high turnout - approaching 85%.

and am a precinct captain. I arrived at the polls at 5:30 and there was already a line of 60 people. By the time the polls opened at 6:00, there were almost 200. Yippee! And many many new citizens were voting for the first time.

And I've seen lots of vandalism against Obama and other Democratic signs. I think it's the work of the repubs.

But not to worry. Democrats have so much money this year that we can replace them faster than those rat fucks can deface them.

I was talking to a client the other day - a West Point grad, career Army office, and a man who has never voted for a Democrat for president - until this year. He's voting for Obama because, he said, McCain was too old, too erratic, a nut job, and still trying to win in Vietnam. And the choice of Palin! He called her an ignorant, superstitious bitch. (I've known this man for 15 years and have never heard him use foul language.)

I never thought Obama could carry Virginia, and he probably won't. But McCain is having to work here - and that wasn't supposed to happen.

And Cary's answer is lame. I have seriously considered shooting them at random - and if the rat fuck bastard repugnuts steal yet another election - I very start locking and loading. And that isn't much of a joke. But, I have copied a wonderful piece that will bring a smile to your face, "A Day in the Life of Joe Republican." I take it with me whenever I'm going to be around welfare repugnuts. It shuts them up pretty quick. I don't know the author, but he/she deserves our appreciation.

A Day in the Life of Joe Republican

Joe gets up at 6 a.m. and fills his coffeepot with water to prepare his morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards.

With his first swallow of coffee, he takes his daily medication. His medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to insure their safety and that they work as advertised.

All but $10 of his medications are paid for by his employer's medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance - now Joe gets it too.

He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. Joe's bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.

In the morning shower, Joe reaches for his shampoo. His bottle is properly labeled with each ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how much it contained.

Joe dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some environmentalist wacko liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting our air.

He walks to the subway station for his government-subsidized ride to work. It saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.

Joe begins his work day. He has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. Joe's employer pays these standards because Joe's employer doesn't want his employees to call the union. If Joe is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, he'll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal didn't think he should lose his home because of his temporary misfortune.

Its noontime and Joe needs to make a bank deposit so he can pay some bills. Joe's deposit is federally insured by the FDIC because some godless liberal wanted to protect Joe's money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the Great Depression.

Joe has to pay his Fannie Mae-underwritten mortgage and his below-market federal student loan because some elitist liberal decided that Joe and the government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money over his lifetime.

Joe is home from work. He plans to visit his father this evening at his farm home in the country. He gets in his car for the drive. His car is among the safest in the world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safety standards.

He arrives at his boyhood home. His was the third generation to live in the house financed by Farmers' Home Administration because bankers didn't want to make rural loans. The house didn't have electricity until some big-government liberal stuck his nose where it didn't belong and demanded rural electrification.

He is happy to see his father, who is now retired. His father lives on Social Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Joe wouldn't have to.

Joe gets back in his car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show. The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good. He doesn't mention that the beloved Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Joe enjoys throughout his day. Joe agrees: "We don't

need those big-government liberals ruining our lives!

After all, I'm a self-made man who believes everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have."
