| So it's... okay... that American democracy is not a democracy but actually somewhere between gangsterism and a random crap-shoot? | |||

Originally posted by Apple Actually, Nixon was a pussy for sucking up voter fraud and not doing anything about it. Kerry isn't as much of a pussy because the possibilities of voter fraud seemed fuzzier this time around and the margin to make up in the remaining ballots was too great to make up in his mind, so that's why he conceded. But Nixon had no reason to concede. The margin to make up was ridiculously minimal (in Illinois, at least) and the possibilities of voter fraud in several states was clearly high. And if you want my honest opinion, I think in my home state of California, the only reason why Bush didn't win the state is because of voter fraud. But that's a different issue... Anyway, I think someone who tries to correct an error in the way American democracy is handled is better than someone who wimps out and lets the error overtake him. So sorry, but Nixon < Me  In Nixon's defense (on Watergate, anyway), he had reason to be fearful, and had a big motive to do the watergate scandal. This, of course, was all because of the election that slipped out of his hands because of his own pussiness. So, I believe that letting him off the hook there was understandable. Btw, JFK sucked ass. Major ass. Originally posted by Ziffski Actually, perfections seem to exist inside God as well. Our all-loving God, who exists in hundreds of different forms (based on how many religions there are and have been, anyway), including "pagan" forms, decides that all people who don't worship to a designated form of himself will go to hell in that particular faction of God-worshipping. So, a Catholic's soul may be in Catholic heaven, but apparently is going through Muslim hell, Protestant hell, Jewish hell, et al at the same time. And a Hindu person will be going through Christian hell, Mormon hell, et al while simultaneously being in Nirvana. Find any imperfections yet? But, of course, South Park always has the correct answer to everything. (Reminded of South Park episode): [Setting: Fiery Furnace, aka HELL] Catholic man: What the... how did... why am I here? What did I do wrong? I was a good, devout Catholic my entire life! Voice: I'm sorry, the correct answer was MORMON. Catholic man: Ah, shit. So apparently, according to the all-knowing South Park show, all non-Mormons go to hell... Luckily, the Mormons have a very unique aspect in their religion: if you sign up to be Mormon and are currently not in the Mormon church (we'll just say this guy's... Catholic), you can not only sign up yourself and your family members, but sign up all your non-Mormon ancestors as well who are already dead, and, according to Mormon teachings, already in hell. So basically, if you become Mormon, you can save your soul and the soul of all those who are in your bloodline! The tradeoff, of course, is that now your soul and the souls of all those you just "condemned" will now be having a straight ticket to Catholic hell while they're hanging out in Mormon heaven... Wow, I rambled |

| I read recently that Kerry had $50 million left from the campaign money Now imagine for a moment that you're over the age of 50, have lost the election, the votes weren't counted very well, but in the end, a recount would put the whole country in limbo, with very slim chances that you'd actually win... OR... You could just walk out with 50 million dollars and retire I pick the 50 million. |
