Write John Kerry's concession speech.
Something like:
"The Republicans had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads,
taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the
power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at Democrats, razed
villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs
for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of
swing states in addition to the normal ravage of a campaign, and the
normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing
power of our own party."

Oh Jesus Christ Gary! I consider myself a centrist independent but you are
simply over the top. Go play your games in alt.politics. Your rants have
nothing to do with usage, and you turned a perfectly good discussion about
impeachment into sociopathic drivel.
I am rapidly tiring of kill file, but you are a fairly close candidate for
the garbage, at this point, for an obnoxious bastard who prefers mockery to
substantive issues.

Hmmm.... I read it as saying that you should "go play your games in
alt.politics", and that "your rants have nothing to do with usage".
Which pretty well sums up the view of many of us who are, if at all,
only slightly interested in your local elections.

pretty please, with sugar on top.)

Ah, that's similar to an old Irish joke - something to do with a
condom and a sixpence.
