"Hey, you think we've waited long enough? Can we start calling our opponents un-American now that we've got the power?"
"Long enough? Jenny, we just won the election. Like, barely a month ago. I mean, hell, we haven't even taken office yet. There's still only 51 Democrats in the Senate and there's still a Texan in the White House. I'm not sure that counts as 'waiting'."
"Yeah, I guess that makes sense. But this auto bailout thing - I really want it! I can't believe I have to wait even longer. This is totally unfair!"
"Dude, you can just wait a month and then we'll be in power."
"But I want it now! You know what? Screw it, I'm calling the Republicans un-American."
"No! You can't do that! That'll make us look just like those oth- ... too late."
Ugh, gross.

Out curiosity, who is the other party conversing with J-Gran in this post? You? Rod Blagojevich ("look, Democratic governors have enough bad press right now...")?
Yeah, I'm not sure who it's supposed to be. I guess an aide, or it could be her talking to herself. By my use of "dude," though, I guess we can surmise it's someone whose job doesn't depend on it ...
