Sooooo...How are the Repubs in your world handling Voter Fraud?
I'm getting about a 30/70 split between "Get the votes counted and if Kerry wins I'll live with it" and "your such a whiny bitch, get over it Kerry lost!"

For those of you who fraternize....whats your experience?

ON a side note: I went to freeperville last night and they wanted the votes counted too. :) I was SURPRISED. Though they seem to feel the fraud was Kerrys doing. Saw posts saying he tried to cheat but couldnt do it enough to win. :eyes: Just when I thought i'd heard everything... :)

1. I'll tell you after Thanksgiving.
I've been avoiding talking politics with Republicans, but I can guarantee my extended family will be holding fundamentalist court around the Thanksgiving table. Wish me luck and lots of wine.

4. Ever see that old Twlight Zone with John Astin?
He was a "hip dude" who had died and was visiting several kinds of hell...One was a mom and pop touristy couple showing perpetual home movies...

Popped in my mind when you mentioned Thanksgiving. I wish you mucho mucho luck!

Remember them in miniature chasing after the Naomi Watts character? Hilarious/terrifying!

born-againers at work. I can't talk fraud with them. I can't talk with them at all. Just business, nothing more. I really dislike these people immensely. I don't see any point to talking to them as I am not a deprogrammer.

8. haven't talked to any repukes about it...
but was very surprised, shocked, disappointed, angry to hear a Dem friend say "everybody cheats, *Bush won, get over it" ... this from someone who got upset when the "new people" cheated at the annual croquet tournament hosted by my husband!

13. That's how my dad is, too
He voted for Kerry, is a union supporter, but still says "that's what happens." He never blames "the boss," and seems to think it's OK for people to get over on others. He's the reason that Nazis were able to kill 50,000 people.

9. Sadly.....
They don't know about it......and if you bring it up they roll their eyes and say "You whiners aren't starting that again?". They are playing the same "See no evil, hear no evil" game that the media as a whole seems to be engaging in.......

10. I don't know.
I haven't talked to anybody. Everybody is a repuke to me these days. I look at everybody now and wonder if they're repukes. I hate it. I hate everything. A week later, and I'm still depressed. I hate this.

I'm glad I found DU.

11. All the Repukes I work with
are also programmers.

I just show them the blackboxvoting.org page and they FREAK.

"I did more security on our last product than they've done on these voting machines!!!!"

bwahahahahahaha. It's quite enjoyable.

12. Some are actually
reading to find out if it's possible it happened, but most just say get over it.

16. It's a "football game" mentality. Every vote counts is not of concern!...
My co-worker had a "neo-con" blurb about Hillary Clinton in 2008 today!

:crazy:
