Bitter, party of one.


Like many, I hope the Democrats, now that they're in charge of Congress, can fix the mess left by the Bush administration and its GOP enablers. The task is daunting daunt

To abate the courage of; discourage. See Synonyms at dismay.

* Incarcerate in·car·cer·ate

1. To put into jail.

2. To shut in; confine.
 Ann Coulter. Fabricate the charges if you have to. I hate her.

* Pass legislation to retroactively declare Brokeback Mountain the rightful winner of Best Picture for 2005.
