Election LJ collage:

“Well, the religious right has won the presidency and both houses of congress.”

“Not moving to Canada, Maybe moving to a plains state to dilute the red.”

“Not to mention, I think I have to move to a different country, because four more years of this president sucks so amazingly bad.”

“I'm so disappointed in the election results. Another 4 years of the monkey madness is too depressing to contemplate.”

“The American people have spoken. American's apparently approve of: pre-emptive war, unilateral action, radicalizing the Muslim world, arrogant and swaggering statesmanship.”

“I can't even begin to describe the level of dread I'm feeling now.
[ ... and now we're facing another four years where W doesn't have to worry about appealing to the electorate at the end of it.]”

“I hope that Cheney overdoes the partying and has a(nother) heart attack and dies.”

“America is so fucking stupid, I'm moving to Canada... or maybe the UK.”

"Sigh... We as Americans were at a decision point and decided to pass on this moment of greatness."

"I am so sad. I really can't believe it. It's like there's another country between where I grew up in New England and the West Coast where I've lived most of my adult life."

“I've really been thinking about this. Would things be any different with Kerry in the White House? I'd like to hope he's not quite into war the way Bush is. But I look at it...and would things be any better?”

“I WILL NOT be driven out of my home by intolerant, narrow minded, patriarchal, bigoted, warmongering religious fanatics. NO. This is my place too, my parents and grandparents were born here, my daughter was born here, and my soul is married to this land. They won't drive me from it. I am their worst nightmare, because I think for myself and own my own body and will.”

“Silence does not serve us.”

"Who else thinks we should put Bush in a straight jacket while he's asleep, and then have him wake up in an asylum and tell him he's crazy and that there was never any war in Iraq?"

“The election; makes me grumpy.”

“Well, it was a close race, but it looks like Bush won...*sigh* GODDAMMIT. another four years of bad policies and wasted government. At least there is some light at the end of the tunnel. He can't be re-elected in another 4 years! Woo Hoo...”

And from my Canadian friend [who is a current resident]: "Unfortunately the people of the US have to deal with him for another 4 years, if the US lasts that long."

“Things will change, we just have to be patient and support each other until that happens. If we have all tried as hard as we could to change the president, and it didn't work, know that it doesn't end with the president.”


I found it interesting to compile reactions.

i love this one..."Who else thinks we should put Bush in a straight jacket while he's asleep, and then have him wake up in an asylum and tell him he's crazy and that there was never any war in Iraq?" and I noticed no one is jumping up for joy that he won. . . maybe the election was rigged...again...

Heehe, jeah.
It is bizarre because so many people I know were on the Kerry side of the fence.

Ah well.
We casted our votes and that is the best we can do.

It's so refreshing to read comments that I can agree with. As much as I like where I live, it is so freaking conservative that I often feel like I am one of the few who fears for the future of this country under the current "leadership." I'm starting to agree with my dad... I think someone must've cheated. :P

You think Bush cheated in high school, too?

I just overheard someone say "Caligula has taken over..." Caligula (left hand), Bush (right hand): Which would you choose. At least Caligula gave the ancient Romans a wild orgy while Rome declined and fell. Bush is giving us a frenzied Bible thumping tent revival while America is ransacked from within.

End of rant.

in response to the cheating aspect: you mean you haven't heard about the man who donated the voting machines in ohio promising to hand the election to bush?

No...
