Election Day Party Plans J.J. Johnson Sierra Times Ranch Chief - Posted: 11.02.00 We know a lot of you folks can't wait to vote out that whole Clinton regime. We know it seems like Tuesday can't get here fast enough. And like you, we are sick and tired of all these damn polls. But while you're all waiting in anticipation of whether Bush wins and hoping Clinton leaves office before starting World War III (already in progress), what to plan in the meantime? You mean, you didn't have a victory party planned? Well, here's an idea, and a great way to kill two birds with one bullet - actually, several bullets. Right now, it looks like Ol' W will probably clean Al Gore's clock. This means complete firearm confiscation may take 8 years, rather than 4. Even though it's only a small victory (if that), it's plenty of reason to celebrate. Once the Gore folks start crying and think of rioting, we'll have a bigger concern - will the First Bastard and the First Spousal Unit ever leave Air Force One? Here's the proposal. Since many will send a strong message to Washington during the day Tuesday, how about sending an even stronger (and louder) message Tuesday night? Synchronize your watches, folks. And wait until Al Gore's concession speech starts. That's when to let the celebration begin. As always, safety first. Proper eye and ear protection required. Semi-autos preferred. We're looking for at least that full clip to be cleared or 30 rounds, whichever comes first. And if some of you get a little carried away on the amount, just make sure to clean up when you're done. Sierra Times proposes we celebrate New Year's day a little early, that's all. Why do we propose this? Two reasons: 1) to REALLY tick off the socialists (yes, we're rubbing it in) and 2) to send a strong reminder to you-know-who that, a) he better not be sitting in the White House past January 20, 2001 at 12:01 pm, and b) his goal to disarm the nation didn't work - and never will. For you folks in the rural areas, you may fire in the air. For you urban folks, point 'em at the dirt. We don't need any accidents. Again, Think Safety. (Of course, check the laws in your area) But think loud. Real loud. Let's make this a party that shakes the founding father's graves. Nervous? Think it's a bad idea? Think about the veterans, the boy scouts, the Waco victims, the Arkancide victims, the men and women in uniform being put in harm's way for selfish interests, think of tobacco lawsuits, gun lawsuits, gay marriages, banning school prayer, (need more?) Got those visions of the last eight years in your head? Good. Now, lock and load. See you on November 7. We'll be listening. sierratimes.com
