The Democrats say:
"You have to be good neighbors and work with us. Sure we set your house on fire 8 times and poisoned your dog. And everyone knows it was us that drew swastikas in your yard with bleach and also keyed your daughter's car twice a week whether it needed it or not. And if your wife didn't move so fast we would have mowed her down with our car on at least dozen occasions. And it would be wrong to hold it against us that we called the police on you for no reason several times a year. And all those viruses on your computer, sure we did that too. And your six trees that got accidentally cut down wasn't really an accident either. And we're kinda, sorta, not really at all sorry about poisoning your well. But remember, you have to be a good neighbor and work with us."
The Democrats can go straight to hell. If it were up to me I'd punish them early and punish them often.
