    But you don't like his most effective foe, Sarah Palin, either

    Not at all. I think Palin would make an excellent tupperware party hostess. As a candidate for national office she's as bad a joke as Dubya.

    Remember the Republican pig, Senator Packwood, who used to try to feel up women in the senate elevators? He was drummed out, and so were many other corrupt repugs. Remember how Bill Buckley drummed Pat the Rat Buchanon out? That bigot will never speak at a Republican Convention again.

    Good start. What about the rest of you?
