LOL, you wish, but I'm afraid the results will be the same, the majority has spoken, here's to democracy in action

I do not understand what the fuck is wrong with people? I hear so many bush-loving ignorant sons of mothers talk about the war and supporting our troops?! You would think they were talking their children and grandchildren to go join the armed forces and go to war as well...but no.. not their blood, they need to be safe here at home. I had a Kerry bumper sticker on my car...someone from my work (Hewlett Packard) had the nerve to place one next to it saying "Vote for Kerry! Keep Terrorism Safe" I could not belive this blind faith towards Bush that would lead people to invade my own opinion...I stil have the Kerry bumper sticker on my car...I refuse to remove it...Bush is bound to fuck up again, and when he does, I want everyone to know who I was not rooting for... Its not that he was any better, but it was some type of hope, hope in the unknown, I know already what I am getting with Bush and I hate it...

i met revelation at about 14. it was a major time for me, when i realized how blind and unintelligent so many people are. when i realized how lost our world was, how hopeless it really is, how beautiful truth and clarity is, and how there is really no place for them in this place. at least not at larte. these awakenings nearly ruined me, and i threw myself into dangerous behavior and drugs and depression for years. we have to press our hands into the dirt. we have to walk away and into the wind sometimes, come back to ourselves. life is bound to bring us so much. anger, rage, sadness, disgust...what do we do with it? every day, i grew quieter, it seems. and at the same time, i can't stop screaming.

maybe if we say pretty please & add a cherry on top? purplelephant November 4 2004, 19:19:34 UTC

that would be nice & this time all those that thought their one vote wouldn't make a difference should get out too. because all those one votes add up.

i read in an article on cnn:
An estimated 9 percent of voters Tuesday were 18 to 24, about the same proportion of the electorate as in 2000, exit polls indicated. The youth vote accounted for 17 percent of turnout when broadened to the 18-to-29 age group, also about the same share as in the last presidential race.

it's pretty well known that a larger percentage of these age groups supported kerry. if they all would have voted we might have had a new president yesterday.
