Is anyone else planning on taping Bush's concession speech?
Not only will I tape it, but I'll watch it every day for the rest of my life, and tell my children to do the same.;-)

9. It will be different from every other Bush speech
Edited on Wed Aug-04-04 02:51 PM by Kid_A
because he'll have to admit that he wasn't the best at something! Bushes are conditioned from a young age to never say anything that's even slightly self-deprecating, and he's gonna have to admit to the world that HE DIDN'T WIN! And then his head will explode!

"My fellow 'Muricans, I come before you tonight to congratulate John Kerry on his victory. I gotta say I'm kinda surprised he won Texas. I thought for sure I had that one in the bag. Oh well, you win some, you lose... *krtzt* you lose some *KRTZZZZZZZZZZZZZTT* SPLAT!!!

NOTE TO THE MODS: I am not wishing for the President's head to explode. Please don't ban me. Thanks.

3. I don't know I'll probably tape it
But I think i'd get sick of it if I had to watch it every day. Unltess it goes something like this.

"I have decided to concede that John Kerry will be our next President; but as we are under grave danger from terrorists and libruls, I have decided it would not be responsible to turn over the oval office to such an untried person yet. So President Kerry will be . . . made comfortable until such time as we defeat all evil at which point I will step down and let him assume the office."

4. How big a prick will he be?
He's not someone that I can see conceding anything easily. When I read your post I initially thought that taping the speech would be a good idea but then I thought once the fucker's gone I don't want to see his face or hear his voice and have all those negative emotions coming back to me. No reason to carry that negativity and hatred into the future. It might be good to have on hand though as a reminder of what we want to avoid in the future though. Hmmm, I kinda going back and forth on this now.

5. I'll wager sixty cents he won't give one
He's wired such that it's impossible for him to concede. One of his staff will deliver the message.

8. What makes anyone think he would
give a concession speech? I don't think he would. I think he will be defiant to the end and concede nothing.

16. I think MoveOn wanted it to be mostly American bands.

You know how xenophobic they are...

But if there was an anti-Blair concert in the UK, 'Head would be first in line.

12. What in the world makes you think he'll
concede? Never forget, it's a long time from November 2 to January 20.

18. After 2000, I won't count my electoral victories until after
the inaguration.

BTW, B1 Bob Dornan has yet to concede from what, 8 years ago?

19. he's not going to leave....
::sob::
there's no Way the PNACers will give up their grip that they have been waiting for, for years now.
Bush will be here in November, and even more dangerous as a lame duck dictator red button pushing constitution changing blight on all of humanity.
