The info and suspicion about this election being stolen as the last one was may well lay the foundation for removing these douche bags. Fan the flames! Burn the whole lot of 'em!

1. Yeah, but Nixon had a Dem House and Senate.
Makes a big difference when the opposition party is in a position to investigate corruption.

2. We can encourage the economy to tank by not buying extra "stuff"
If you can make your car last another 4 years, do it. If you can hold off selling your house, do it. If we can all boycott businesses that contributed to Bush and stop buying anything we don't need (such as food) then we should do it.

I'm not contributing to this economy any more than I have to.

3. There is a big difference between then and now.
He couldn't control how many votes he got back then.

4. Awe, perhaps but "Tricky Dick" was quite sinister ...
He was a tyrant with a brain.
