What's the response overseas?
I wanted so badly to see the dancing in the streets, celebrating a Kerry victory. I'm wondering what's being said around the world. Do they hate all of us now?

4. A German account of mine called today,
he asked, "would Germans have voted for Hitler after WWII?!." They are very shocked.

7. disbelief
absolute, utter lack of comprehension about how Americans could actually have voted for this guy.

Mainly, because he is so CLUELESS about keeping the US safe, and is doing exactly the opposite of what should be done to ensure security and safety.

I've had to explain about "Christian" right, US nationalism, and the ever popular right wing political strategy of fear and hatred.

9. As an American, I'm ashamed. We're a country of ignorant, war
mongering bigots. For that, I'm very sorry. May God Protect us and the world from Bush.

18. I expected to feel depressed, angry,
and upset if Bush won, but I didn't expect this weight of guilt that's descended on me.

Before today, it was just Bush who had blood on his hands. Now it's all of us.

God help us.

10. From my friend in Norway:
"how serious will this be, what will happend next, will I sit in a cave somewhere and tell my grandchildren about world war III in 50years, or is it mainly going to affect usa, wich is sad, all over europe people are morning, and fearing a new great war, yeah might seem farfetched for you, but in europe people are scared."

12. There are reports that Bin Laden has released another tape.
That should say something about a response.

17. Yep, he got to be happy.
Osama's goal is to destroy US economy, and now he gets to do that without lifting a finger. American voters did it for him.
