If people weren't being dicks, this entire thread wouldn't exist.

I was talking about typos.

[g0zen]

I still love you, IP.

[Fe 26]

As long as there is love, there is a way.

No. It isn't. But if that does happen, I better get the right to own a fucking assault rifle and an armed tank.

something good better come of this mess.

Meh I want an antitank rifle ^-^

If this was 1996 it would've been called and Kerry would've conceded by now. It looks like Bush is gonna win 4 out of the 5 remaining states, with Kerry picking up Wisconsin. Final total, Bush - 286, Kerry - 252. Im not saying that to flame, just look at the numbers.

All the liberals need is a one state swing to start their conspiracy theories and months of lawsuits over Bush stealing the election again. Where are all the people that hate the electoral college and wanted it decided by popular vote, now that Bush won that by over 3.5 million and has received more votes than any candidate in the history of the country?

g0zen, I hear you. But really, whose fault is it for letting a bunch of terrorists grow so powerful and ubiquitous in this area?

The West.

Whose fault is it for spending the past 50 years indoctrinating hatred and violence instead of building a functional, civil society?

Palestine.

Who decided to pick up guns instead of the works of Gandhi?

Palestine

But shoot, yea, lets give 'em a state.

Look at Islamic Terrorists like you would do the Klan. They're both the same kind of thing, you have an upper echelon of TRUELY evil megalomanics intent on being pricks, and then you get a whole army of followers who are only following them because they offer SIMPLE solutions to their COMPLEX problems.

So how do you prevent terrorism?

1. Fuck up the Upper Echelon - Bush has done that successfully.
2. Don't give reasons for the "at risk" to join the evil cause, in other words, you let Palestine exist, and build infrastructure so they're not a bunch of povs - Bush isn't going to do this, he's just going to give the "at risk" more reasons to join the arseholes cause.

Or think of the Terrorists as Nazis.

There had always been an underlying hatred of Jews in Germany, but it was not apparent because the people were well off and happy, but then the depression came and this hatred floated up to the surface because it was a SIMPLE solution to a COMPLEX problem. It was wasy to blame the Jews for their bad economic situation.

In the same way, there has always been a underlying theme of violence in Islam, but it's being bifuricated by the supression of Palestine, and the distabilisation of every nationalist middle eastern government that's ever tried to exist.

We're still here, and if Bush winds up getting the popular vote then I think he should be president no matter what the electoral college says.

Oh, and neocons really need to wipe the sand out of their vaginas left over from the 2000 debacle.

Actually, as you know, I'm pretty liberal, and think it would be cool if you guys got a proper democratic system. Regardless if the outcome favoured conservatives. Democracy is about the process, not the outcome.

Bush has a 150k vote lead in Ohio. Since we are attention whores in Ohio, we are going to milk this for all its worth. They should call it for Bush, but we don't want to step out of the spotlight.

Looks like Bush's incessent campaigning in Ohio (He visited about every major city, and stayed here the last 10 days) really paid off. What's more amazing, is that we have a horrible Republican Governor, and he was able to overcome that liability also.
