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.

He should have thanked ALL Americans for voting, not just the ones who voted for him. Much more PC that way.

I'll tell you what happened, we're in a time-machine, and it's taken us back to the magical time of 2000... We can now observe history as it unfolds before us, again and again... for every election until our country ceases to function entirely.

Guy on CBS says they're doing this because alot of democrats felt they shouldn't have given up so easily in 2000. WTF?!? :evil:

Dumb motherfuckers. Take it court and kneecap yourselves, be my guest. I'm starting to believe the analysis I read in Liberty magazine back in '95 that said Bill Clinton would be the last democrat elected president for a quarter century...

No, until the democrats or republicans can cough up someone everyone doesn't dislike. The democrats could've fucking had this if they'd managed to find someone good.

Apparently some democats felt that if they hadn't shown some defeatist attitudes in the very start of the 2000 fiasco, Gore might've won. :roll:

We're seeing first hand that the Republican resurgance they've been muttering about since they took the Congress in '94 is not just a pipedream. We're looking at an honest-to-god cultural revolution, that is 3/4 of a century worth of backlash at progressive movements and secularization. America just might become a very bad place to be.

This will cause a bigger backlash on Democrats than it would otherwise. Let this election go, get someone worth running in 08. I would not mind a recount, but keep the gawd damn courts out of it.

Considering the demographic changes taking place, they're likely right. The South and West will be picking up more electoral votes and house seats, come the next census.
