The Saturday OT Committee and Operatic Society gathered last night to watch the returns and bask in victory. We didn't all vote the same way with a few even confessing to voting for Republicans in some races. There was a thoughtful and spirited discussion going on between the Rain Man, Pope George Ringo, SoccerMike and the Senator from Plains when the Mean Old Man showed up and all hell broke loose. The Mean One started yelling about nuking Syria and Iran, tossed around his version of WMD's (Thelma Jean's biscuits) and accused me of having a hand in the mysterious disappearance of a local conservative blogger.
Some people just can't take losing an election.
I had a wonderful time last evening. It was very satisfying for the first time in many years, for us Dem's. to bask in the glory of the total rejection of the Bush regime. It's ashame it took this long. But now, it is time to get down to brass tacks and show results or our overwhelming victory will be very short lived.
ReplyDeleteThe committee was in rare form with all members present at one time or another throughout the evening.
