The american ppl have spoken
they have chosen hate over hope
they have chosen fear over strength
they have chosen bigotry over diversity
they have chosen religion over reality
they have chosen fantasy over fact

they have chosen. this is the country in which we live.

we have to end ignorance and the religion and bigotry that it spawns before we have a hope of winning back this lost culture of fools

9. They are not idiots
That lets them off the hook.

They are evil. They know exactly what they were voting for.

10. No, not evil
Just ignorant. Lacking in critical thinking skills. Scared fools.

But not evil.

11. Didn't you just define evil?
I consider the average "good German" who looked away to be more evil than Hitler, who was obviously mentally ill.

12. My feelings.............
exactly.

There is no way that the people of America have chosen George Bush as the President.

I don't understand why no one is talking much about Florida; Kerry was ahead in the exit polls and riding a wave of massive voter turnout and excitement, but somehow Bush finds 300,000 new votes that he didn't get in 2000.

Add to that the fact that the Black Boxes were used pretty much exclusively in traditionally Democratic counties.

Another note on exit polls, Kerry was ahead in PA according to the polls, and as would make sense he won the 'vote'.....the exit polls were correct. Why the huge discrepancy in Florida and Ohio?

5. 150,000 People in One State
The margin of apparent victory by George W. was only 150,000 votes in one state (Ohio), out of 110 million votes cast. That definitely is not a sweeping mandate.

6. I guess
but with his Popular vote numbers, he's gonna get the idea that he does have a mandate. He even acted as if he a mandate last time when he LOST the pop vote

8. yeah, that is the problem
His Royal Arrogance was damn near insufferable before.
If he turns out to have actually won ... well, all bets are off.
The swaggering'll be like an earthquake.

7. the american people were not allowed to speak
ergo the problem. the american people try to speak and their voice was dismissed

i cant believe any person really believes bush pulled out a victory of 300,000 people in florida. florida did not get their voice heard.
