3. Deus lo volt!
Deus lo volt! Deus lo volt!

How about his bullshit promise to play nice with the opposition? Wasn't that a hoot? And now, anything little Georgie wants translates to "will of the people." Get your brownshirts and armbands ready!

:puke:

8. Playing nice
He was on a little while ago. It sounded more to me like he was encouraging the opposition to come play nice with him.
As in we're either fer him or agin him.

6. I'm with you on that
How the hell does a barely there majority give you a "clear mandate"? :wtf:

Up is down.

Black is white.

War is peace.

Four more years. It's enough to make you chew off your own foot.
