Election Aftermath

As Repuglicrums bay at the moon and highfive each other over the bloodied carcasses of their foes, I sit back and wax philosophical about the near future of our country. Based on Dubya's first term in office, we may reasonably assume:

1. Another possible tax decrease.
2. Enough spending to make Red Kennedy's stomach explode like a sodden, post-Halloween pumpkin.
3. Even more spending proposals from Bush, for the greater good of Ameritopia (had to be said).
4. Moderate judges appointed to Supreme Court. I predict this because Bush has never fought hard for conservative appointees, though he may attempt appointing some. We'll see.
5. Continued challenges of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban, and continued ignoring of such attacks by the president.
6. Massive funds pledged to prop up medicare, social security, and other socialist inventions.
7. Another attempt at reinstituting the draft, led by the Democrats as they charge up liberty's hill and assault the bulwarks of freedom.
8. In general, a moderate to leftist looney presidency from Bush.
9. Further caterwauling from the Demonbrat Party, as they bemoan the supposed illegitimacy of a secong Bush term. Of course, these are the same folks who would be screeching an identical mantra if Bush won 100% of the popular vote, and only bin Laden voted for Kerry via absentee ballot.
10. More talk on the righteousness of the nebulous "War on TERROR," and how it must be fought at all costs--including the further cost to our liberty.
11. More ablutions to the U.N.
12. That's all I can think of, at the moment.

So in short, more of the same. I expect no major backtracking to follow a more Constitutional path, on Bush's part. And just think, Kerry would've been even worse.
