:no:
kinda knew it was gonna happen, but i still can't believe he got the popular vote. If he hadn't been born with a silver spoon in his mouth and the same name as daddy he would have spent his life asking "paper or plastic", instead he's the most powerful man on the planet
bad day
My heart is broken. I think they might as well erect a huge friggin crucifix on the white house, with humanity hanging on it. this is absolutely horrible, and if we didn't have family here, had money, I would want to leave the US. There is more damage to be done. Watch abortion rights go out the window, watch more discrimination against gays, watch more death, more war, more destruction of protected lands, more poverty, more uninsured people...watch and see what the Bush administration does to finish off their path of utter destruction of everything this country stood for. This country is bullshit, we have gone back in time, the moral fuckin majority bullshit..the right wing fanatical schmucks dictating how people shopuld live their lives. Watch and see how the Supreme court changes. Watch america self-destruct. I want a friggin ticket and a load of cash...outta the USA
I wonder how many "swing" states had Ralph Nader on the ballot?

I have never been so glad that I am European and live in a free country where civil rights and fair elections are taken for granted.
Reading Kitty Kelley's "The Family: The Real Story of the Bush Dynasty" turned my stomach and today's result was not surprising but it still hurts this liberal who thinks freedom is fundamental human right - even in the USA.
Uhh ruthie...calm down.Quote:

The outcome has little or no impact on me or my country. The UK is extremely unlikely to support any more mad wars and the US deficit is not necessarily a bad thing for Europe. I think some European countries were hedging their bets somewhat and I see Hungary is calling it a day on the Iraqi coalition. I rather suspect the French, Russians and Germans have mixed feelings - a Kerry win would have meant their troops and money going into Iraq, a Bush win means they can put they cheque books away.
One area, the environment, is a worry - but Kerry was not especially strong on this either.
However, it seems to me that the result is going to cause deep divisions in the US (although either side winning was probably going to do this). This is not a good thing. Bush now has two roads in front of him - the Neo-Conservative isolationist one or a more conciliatory soft Conservative one. The selection of his new Administration will demonstrate the road he has taken early enough for all to be able to batton down the hatches.
One word of comfort - 4 years soon passes and there is little a politician can do that cannot be undone. Hillary must also have mixed emotions I suspect. :)
However, commiserations to those who are closer to this event and are feeling the chill wind of a divided nation.

Bush is doing a speech on ch4 now UK people
Thanks for the warning - :lol:
In the future do you think it will be possible to put certain public figures on "ignore" for all media outlets?
I just dont get it, no offence to u bush fans, but y? u can just c in his eyes that his ambistion is just damaging this word and hes really dragging my country down which is England.
I disagree with you Expire. Bush would go it alone. It is Blair you should be blaming for pulling the UK down with him.Quote:

Well u have a point...but Bush has influenced him, we would of never gone over there if it wasent for him. when a place like america goes to war it puts alot of presure on other countries, look at the shit France when through and we have more ties with the usa.Quote:

As one of the "computor illiterates" I must point out that most of us are too busy to waste time pissing and moaning about such things on the internet.
Far too few of you have even the slightest idea of what Bush's re-election signifies or the inclination/ability to examine it objectively.
More's the pity I haven't the time to properly explain.
It's not so much that Bush was so capable, but that Kerry was not; the liberal Democrat hierarchy has not a clue about how to regain power in the U.S., and those of you who put stock in the future of the Democrat Party as currently constituted are wasting your time.
BTW-any of you who are banking on Hillary in '08 are whistling in the dark; she's already irrelevant.
Well, that's real unifying... I can feel the love.:ermm:Quote:

Unity and love are where you find them, scroff.Quote:

I have seen them here:

But they appear to be for instant messaging and e-mail only and I dont know if they are animated and requires installation of a toolbar so I wont get those ones!.
Regarding Bush I am not supprised he won. Americans have been scared by him and considering that the US population is is the least educated people in the world regarding Geografy,History and hardly gets any international news in their news broadcasts they know almost nothing about the world and the destruction Bush have caused and will continue to do so. The americans voted with safety and comfort in mind but dont realise that actually the US would have been much safer with Kerry since the US would then become less hated due to a change in international policy!. So the americans have been greatly mislead and we should not forgett the Fox effect that is the most watched news channel in the US and it spreads republican propaganda and I think that has also influcenced the outcome!.
Perhaps I will, J2, perhaps I will... in Sweden.Quote:
