16. Tell me about it
Taken me forever to find the things I usually just go to automatically.

And the links generated by the news stories are a real mess. Had to edit one a few minutes ago.

5. It's an image silly
That displays a correlation between * low approval rating and the likelihood of a terrorist attack.

17. There was an article
about that late last year I read. Just google for it and it's probably still out there. Basically it told how there would be a terror alert whenever his raitings are low. I wonder if he'll do it. But then if he does it it'll show they're not winning "the war on terror." Bush and Cheney made this whole big ordeal that if you vote for the wrong person you'd get attacked again.

25. But we DID vote for the "wrong" person, didn't we?
I mean, THEY know we didn't vote for JR, right?

3. If only people had woke up before November 2nd...
Edited on Fri Apr-29-05 11:05 AM by Beelzebud
It's pretty damn sad. It seems like most of the country was off by about 5 months, and now we all have the next 3.5 years to pay for it...

We democrats have got to mobilize in 2006, and 2008. There is no choice.

7. I know I sound like a broken record, but I think they did.
I am absolutely convinced that more people showed up at the polls intending to cast a vote for Kerry. What happened once they pulled the lever, circled the dot or touched the screen is anyone's guess.

13. I feel the same way, Patriot......
I can't prove it but I'm convinced that many of the states with repub Secretaries of State threw this election to the chimp if they had enough precincts WITHOUT verified electronic ballots.

14. That's the way I see it, too. Nobody I know voted for the fool.
And a lot of us worked very hard to get the word out via means other than those controlled by corporations. It is simply impossible that he got more votes in 04 than he did in 00. This presidency is a HOAX and everything about it is a HOAX. Fake elections, fake terror attacks, fake war, fake leadership, fake policies, fake 'news.'

The exit polls were right.

20. Yep
My brother last November asked my uncle who he was voting for and he said he wasn't voting. Two of my aunt's were Bush supporters but I wonder if they are still. I haven't talked to them in a while (we've been busy with our own things).

19. I am too
Why else would the exit polls say different? Why else would Karen Hughes told Bush he lost?? Why else would the republicans have such low raitings with Congress/Senate?

22. That's what's confusing to me
