1. He caved less than 24 hours after the election. |
|
The votes were not even counted yet. At least he should have had the decency to wait till the votes were counted first. But no, he folded and disappeared.

a lot invested in this election. A lot of people.
It might turn out that he did the right thing in the long run and was ahead of some of us (including myself. I was/am super upset! Better in the last few days.)
And I really do mean "trauma" as in something you have to handle in a careful way because it is literally a shock to your system, not just some little upset.
When people say, "Get over it", that's not helpful. When people accuse you (generic you, not you!) of being a troll, that's REALLY not helpful.
Fwiw, what's been helping me a lot is to focus on the broken election, because in the end, that's what matters. No matter how well Kerry's campaign did, the election was rigged from start to finish. We can't go back in time but we can apply the seat of our brain to this problem until we fix it.
No one is going to do it for us.

3. Yes the election was broken. |
|
Why does Kerry act as if it was not? He seems to be ok with things as they are.

4. No idea, although he has been supportive of election reform. |

My guess is that you don't get personal responses from public figures.
Hey, help us work on the VOTE group Arnheim is organizing. Bet you'll feel better.

Kerry Edwards did great. Even the evil cunt of right wing fascist agenda, Ann (She really a man) Coulter admitted shock that Kerry was so close to actually winning (He did). I for one was pissed as hell when he conceded, but you know, the election was rigged from Jan 20th 2001 so the odds to overcome were insurmountable. The Fucked up Goddam fucking right wing media in this country..... CNN, FOX, MSNBC et fucking al did Kerry in and he knew it. No challenge on earth would have stopped this God awful media from slamming Kerry down to the ground. Our Fucking Whore media... DID nothing during the Warren Co. lockdown, no questioning, no reporting, just wow... a terror warning.
People, We have got to stop bashing Kerry and start bashing the media, everyware I go I tell people to go online, become a part of the news, stop watching MSM news because its all lies for Bush and the new Oligarchy, fascist regime knew as the Bush Administration.

7. That's right. Hey, I ordered some Election Deception Dollars |
|
to pass out on 1/20. They're great! Look like a big bill and are loaded with websites that work on vote fraud -- a good way to get people to read what really happened.
