That's what I want to know! Will it crash DU?

That's about as exciting a thing as I expect to happen over the next few days. We CERTAINLY need an examination of electronic voting but with our own candidate doing nothing about it and probably sipping Pina Coladas at some resort in the Carribean as we speak, I hold out little hope that anything at all will happen.

I hope I am surprised so much that a few days from now people will be telling me I was full of shit but right now I think we are all just daydreaming.

1. Jersey Devil, I don't think that Kerry is somewhere sipping
Pina Coladas. The man has wanted to be president his entire life. He has lawyers retained.

Have a little faith.

4. Well, he is either the greatest possum player in the history of the world
or we are just engaging in a 50,000 member circle jerk.

2. When it gets to 1,000, we go to Level 2
100,000 bonus points, and 3 extra lives!

3. I know I sound like a broken record, but...
Patience.

On the other hand, that is better than the typical NJ greeting: "Go fuck yourself!" ;-)

5. I think it will open up a wormhole
and pull DU into one of those other internets.

9. I go back and forth on this
Edited on Sat Nov-06-04 01:54 PM by jinuu
Am I insane, should I just tinfoil the whole inside of my house and compile graphs quoting sources who quote sources to back up my gut feeling that the election was rigged?

OR

Am I insane, should I just buck up, put the election behind me and get to work on my dream team for the next election, Conyers/Obama?

OR

Am I insane, should I just tell the US and it's fascist/fraudulent/freaky EC voting system to go screw and look for a job in New Zealand?

:crazy:

11. it'd be nice if that thread was 250 million strong... so they know
there can't POSSIBLY be 59 million demented individuals in this country.

What a crying shame!

13. there are millions of masochistic Americans
who are willing to give up their jobs, health care, freedom, and first born son to stop gays from getting civil rights or to stop women from getting abortions.

That's exactly why Republicans are against education. They need people to be stupid.
