Poop. My bad. I was away from all my computers all of that week and missed that and searched on the specific essay link rather than on the collection link.

I should have looked harder. All I can say in my defense was that the news that Cat Stevens is now considered a threat to our security drove me temporarily over the edge.

Bush/Cheney 2004... it's the last vote you'll ever have to cast ;-)

A lot of people sure don't like this Bush guy. Posting stuff about his shortcomings here will insure that he isn't elected to whatever office he wants, I bet.

Hey, I hadn't seen it before and I got quite a good laugh at it. Lay the heck off the poster.

The whole election reminds me of a Heinlein side-story; the election of a religious dictator as president and his eventual take-over and change of the US to an oligarchy. Similar circumstances, I beleive even down to the electronic voting machines...

Why, you're anticipating a win for a Jerry Falwell/Roy Moore ticket in 2008?
