YOU GO TO HELL! YOU GO TO HELL AND YOU DIE!!
While I'm an american, albeit a fictional one, I do feel Spyder has a point.
The way elections are conducted in the real US quite simply baffle me, as does the fact that fellow sd.netizens (who are supposedly at least reasonably intelligent) actually vote for Bush.
Oh hell. Clark and me ousted a fictional but extremely clever and (pre-Venom) rational (albeit evil) President, if need be we can do it to a real-world but utterly icompetent (albeit propably not evil) and irrational one.
Needless to say, if I were a real american, I'd have voted for Kelly (and have been WWF Heavyweight Champion of the world several times quite a while ago )
'Next time I let Superman take charge, just hit me. Real hard.'
'You're a princess from a society of immortal warriors. I'm a rich kid with issues. Lots of issues.'
'No. No dating for the Batman. It might cut into your brooding time.'
'Tactically we have multiple objectives. So we need to split into teams.'-'Dibs on the Amazon!'
'Hey, we both have a Martian's phone number on our speed dial. I think I deserve the benefit of the doubt.'
'You know, for a guy with like 50 different kinds of vision, you sure are blind.'
Well, this was my first participation at a presidential election.
Voted for Kerry, and Majette for Senator. And voted against an anti-gay marriage amendment.
As if it will make any differnence.
Is it a crime to try and learn the truth? Is it a sin to search for those things which you fear? My purpose in this world is knowledge, and the dissemination of it. And it is I who is to restore the fruits of my labors to the entire world. Wake up! Don’t be afraid of knowledge! Humans who loose the capacity to think become creatures whose existence has no value. Think, you humans who are split into two worlds! Unless you want the gulf between humans to expand into oblivion,YOU MUST THINK!- Schwarzwald

Damn, check the top of the page on the main N&P page. I don't think I've ever seen N&P so packed.

I'm studying for the CPA exam. Have a nice summer, and if you're down just sit back and realize that Joe is off somewhere, doing much worse than you are.
I also hit a deer and it fucked up my car big time- patches of fur are still sticking out.
So- thats two unexpected things that happened tonight.
Devolution is quite as natural as evolution, and may be just as pleasing, or even a good deal more pleasing, to God. If the average man is made in God's image, then a man such as Beethoven or Aristotle is plainly superior to God, and so God may be jealous of him, and eager to see his superiority perish with his bodily frame.

When I just checked, we were 7 short of the record for most people logged onto SD.net ever.

I couldn't bring myself to vote for either of these morons (four guys really if you count the off parties). So I didn't vote for the Pres. If these assclowns want my vote (probably not since I live in uber Republican dominated Utah so no one comes here) they'll have to get a decent canidate.
I voted NO on the dumb ass Ban Gay Marrage Amendment too.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong
But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red
Why is this election on a weekday? That seems very inconvenient.

Apparently some Republican just filed a lawsuit, I saw it on CBS.

Well if iIwas old enough and a citizen I would vote for Kerry. NOt that it would really matter here in Illinois. And I would vote straight democrat apart from Mellisa Bean (for house) as she is really damn slimy. Her entire platform is that she's not the incumbent. Blah.
And my town (Barrington) is probably one of the few areas that everyone is going to vote bush Bah, there are kids at my high school who think that they are fucking republicans because thier parents are. . I wish these people would make thier own descisions.
Voted for Kerry this morning. Although I live in Texas, here in Austin, I see a shit load of Kerry supporters. Unfortuantly, as we all know, that won't make a difference in the rest of this state (but hopefully Kerry will get the votes he needs in other states).
I had to use a provisional ballot because apparently there were so many people registering that they haven't all been processed. And it was a really weird shade of purple. And I had to fill out this information sheet and stick the damn thing in two envelopes.
Voted for Kerry, mostly Dem., Green and Lib. once or twice.
Wish I could have transferred my vote to a state that needs it.
Also, did everyone else's ballot (or touchscreen or whatever) have about a dozen presidential candidates on it?
Yup, it was probably my vote for Kerry that swung Massachusetts for him No line, and the only delay was someone interviewing me about my choice. Scantronic ballots.

I really liked his speech at the convention, I hope I get to vote for him for president some day. Come to think of it, both parties had better convention speakers than candidates.

They may have claymores and Dragons, but we have Bolos and Ogres.
So far things are going as expected, and pretty good on my side. Bush looks fine thus far in Ohio and Florida, and all of the Gay-marriage bans seem to have passed.

This most likely is not the proper thread to enter a discussion on gay marriage, but can you care to provide your reasoning for supporting it?
