If we're not going to overturn, how does that help us for the next four years? * will still be President. There won't be a world left by the next election.

1. Because no Senator or Representative believes that Kerry won
Or if they do, they certainly kept quiet about it.

9. Um, WE DID ALL WE COULD!
NEWSFLASH! In case you hadn't noticed yet, we're a minority in both the house and the senate. Even if every single Dem had stood up, the outcome would have been the same.

that's why I don't mind that they all didn't stand up. we got what we were gonna get regardless of who voted for what.

I'm pretty fecking happy that we did what we did.
