Oh wait, he does that one bomb at a time. Never mind.

And with the largest voter turnout in my lifetime, it looks like the majority got what the majority wants: A government run by the idiots, for the idiots. Love it or leave it? Sure thing. I'm looking at teaching English in Prague, Amsterdam, or one of the Nordic countries. Maybe even Spain or France. We'll see. - --Chris A.

Somehow, the Democrats have got to articulate a clear and compelling vision that tolerance is not hedonism, compassion is not weakness, and inclusiveness will not lead to the fall of western civilization. - Kristin ===================================================================== Bunnymen Online Presence: http://www.bunnymenlist.com * http://www.bunnymen.info * http://www.bunnymen.com * http://www.fotolog.net/sgtfuzz/ * http://bunnymen.nexuswebs.net/ * http://www.angelfire.com/wy2/discog/ * ====================================================================== ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 05 Nov 2004 06:07:22 +1300 From: "Kristin Smith" Subject: Re: seven-seas Re: OT: Tragic Tuesday MCH writes: > It is indeed a sobering thing to wake up to > another term of Bush when we all thought > Kerry would carry.

Though I'll tip my hat to Stu (as I so often do!) and say that my first, pissed off, mortified, and knee-jerk-liberal reaction was to say that same thing - they'll get what they have officially asked for. But in considering how close the final numbers are, and how vehemently all of my friends campaigned, I think it's only fair to say that only half of the country is asking for trouble. Even my ol' 76-year-old mum, a republican most of the time I was growing up, got her butt down to the polls to vote for Kerry. And I sent my absentee ballot at least 3 weeks before the deadline. We tried, we really, really did.... SOB.
