Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 Aww, fuck, here's another guy saying we've "lost the culture war" and need to start tipping our hats to the whole guns/god/gays thing. "They aren't doing well in towns that have Wal-Marts but don't have Starbucks." A-hyuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted November 3, 2004 CNN is talking about how appearantly a lot of votes for Bush, even in Democratic areas, came from his morality stance. You know, I hope this launches an even larger firestorm of indecency in our culture just to piss these people off. I want a big name director to go on the record of saying "Fuck the children" and making his PG-13 action flicks into R rated gory productions. I want more wardrobe malfunctions and people appearing on TV making lewd gestures or wearing shirts with naughty language on it. We can't change these people's minds, but we can make their lives uncomfortable. I do what I can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lil' Bitch 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 Well, I just woke up and I'm glad to know my homestate winded up going for Bush again. And it looks there still isn't a firm decision on New Mexico, Iowa, and Ohio? THREE fucking states? What the fuck? Bush should be the winner, he was leading in all of them.

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 Well, I voted for Kerry, but I'm not going to whine about Bush winning (which looks like it's the case). Be prepared for a very conservative next four years though, with the Republicans making gains in Congress. Boy, the youth vote really failed last night...only about 17% of voters 18-30 turned out, same as in 2004. Maybe people will quit talking about "reaching out to the young voters" from now on, since they don't make a difference but will be bitching about Bush for the next four years anyway.

Der Kommissar 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 This Melissa Bean lady that just won a seat in the House around Illinois here, something about her just seems evil. I think it's the last name "Bean." There is just something evil about a name like that. Speaking of which, a guy with the first name "Tupac" got elected to some position around here. I wonder how many people voted for him, simply because they saw the name "Tupac" and decided to vote for him on the basis that his name is the same as a dead rapper. Maybe people will quit talking about "reaching out to the young voters" from now on, I certainly hope so. All those commercials and "Please vote!" campaigns turned me away from wanting to vote as opposed to their original intention of making me want to go vote. Though, I'll probably be living in a different country by then, I certainly hope they go the way of the dodo in 2008, but I doubt it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you looked at Congress' spending record lately? With nothing to fear, Bush will shakedown these guys for even more money, and they'll gladly hand out provided he signs their spending bills to blow cash on everyone's pet project to help boost their image in their home region come 2006.

I think they know that things have to be different this time around. Much less spending now. We're gonna see tax cuts, energy reform, tort reform, some good Supreme Court appointments...I think we're in for a good four years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 And some good SCOTUS appointments? Ronald Reagan is gaining some serious stock in my book. Not only for having the guts to raise taxes in his first term, but because I doubt Bush is going to smart enough to appoint an O'Connor instead of a Scalia.

Rob E Dangerously 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 Any confirmation that there's 1.5 million ballots still out in Florida? I think a 60/40 split there would make up the 300K margin. Granted, some people have reason to be skeptical since the only states where the exit polling was wrong (wrong enough for CNN to 'revise' their polling later) was Ohio and Florida. But, we don't need a paper trail for electronic machines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Retro Rob Report post Posted November 3, 2004 I wish Kerry would've given his concession speech already. Electing in this country has become such a headache, and this year he really doesn't have any right dragging this out any longer with Bush leading in Ohio, New Mexico, and Iowa, where they all have 99 to 100% of the votes in. Are we ever going to see actual results on an election day again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teke184 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 So who will be the Minority Leader now with Tom Daschle gone? This Melissa Bean lady that just won a seat in the House around Illinois here, something about her just seems evil. Harry Reid of Nevada is projected to be the new Minority Leader. However, I think that they may throw a curveball and choose a fucking nutball like Patty Murray of Washington instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Be prepared for a very conservative next four years though, with the Republicans making gains in Congress. I'm rather disappointed about that actually. I'd hope that there'd be more of a Dem/Rep balance this time around. Ah well. The people have spoken.

Maybe people will quit talking about "reaching out to the young voters" from now on, since they don't make a difference but will be bitching about Bush for the next four years anyway. Us young folks are slackers who like to whine and complain...I've talked to several Kerry supporters this morning who wanted to vote but "things came up." Yeah, PA is probably still going to Kerry anyway (with a slim chance of it changing), but I find that very funny. I expect them to be complaining a lot over the next four years.
