Good luck from Norway - please read |

Edited on Tue Nov-02-04 08:02 AM by trigz
I'll post a thread in here as well -
Today your country decides whether the world will continue to destabilise over the next four years, whether your country will continue to isolate itself from the international community and cause Americans and the western world to continue to be hated by increasingly large sections of the Muslim world.
We Europeans have been sickened by the introduction to American society by what, to me and my people, is a crypto fascist regime, elected by the Supreme Court and with the most ruthless international political agenda ever to come out of a democratic country.
We want Kerry to win because we want to be your friends. With George W. Bush and his supporters arrogantly spitting us in the face, the USA can be no friend.
With an intelligent, internationally-minded President who sees the absolute need for international cooperation in the combat against terrorism and the forces that seek to undermine democracy and stability in their own interests, we hope to get back the USA that we know, respect and in some ways admire.
Now
VOTE AS THOUGH YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT
and
KICK GEORGE W. BUSH'S FASCIST ARSE OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE!
I'm not religious, but I'll pray for you tonight. Go out and get the job done. Get rid of the true Evil Empire and bring back democracy and intelligence to your country.
Go Dems!

If bush* takes office again, it will prove to the world that Americans are unfit to govern themselves. It will mean that the political culture here has weakened to the point where we can't make rational decisions on our own interests AND we inflict disaster on the rest of the globe. I sincerely hope that Europeans (and others) take special note of what's happening here and vow not to let it happen to them. The key is the mass media....

We have a long, dark history of authoritarian fascism here. If W wins tonight you'll be going through the same dark age yourselves.
KICK SOME ARSE!

...for your e-mail. It really made me feel good. When I went to vote at 6:30 this morning, in a not-so-great part of Chicago, there were already lines. We are going to win if this is at all fair, and thanks again for your support from so far away--please keep reminding people that roughly half of America is doing all it can to help the rest of the world and ourselves by getting Bush out of office.
