How many people will die, lose their job, lose their ass...
before January 20?

BushCo, abdicate or resign now! Congress, pass a resolution to allow Obama to take over now!

1. Nobody cared how many were dying in 2002, 2004 and 2006
Don't expect much now unless it's affecting them personally.

4. I would- I advocated for some of the people that Bushco destroyed
Blank stares and "That's their own fault" echoed throughout the land, even here.

I repeat- if it's not happening to them or a loved one, they don't care.

5. I cared. I am nobody. I know what you mean though.
Rather like Iraq, until it gets personal, a lot of people really don't care.

2. And that's going to stop people dying or losing their jobs?
Wow, I had no idea Obama had such miraculous powers.

6. Congress can't pass a resolution.... it would take a constitutional amendment

The constitution mandates the transition period and when the electors meet.


You can't bypass it with an "abdication" or a "resolution".


Take a civics course.

9. Read the Constitution...
Even if Bush and Cheney resigned today that would leave us with President Pelosi - NOT President Obama.
