Utter disbelief.

How on earth did Bush win? I was half expecting a landslide victory for Kerry of the '97 UK election variety, but I guess that was not to be.

Everyone now seems to be into the post-election analysis, discussing what went wrong, etc... I'll sum it up - Middle America just doesn't get it.

We are all, but mostly our kids, going to pay dearly for this.

I totally agree. Can't understand why someone who can't make a speech without a teleprompter or do a debate without a mic for someone to feed him answers deserves to run a country (and of course this is just the tip of the iceberg).

My guess is that he "bought" himself a vicrory in a similar way to how he got elected in the first place. Oh well, at least i'm only 2-3 hours from the Canadian border :)

Get over it. You guys are conspiracy loons and total elitists. You want to know why Kerry lost? It's because he's a politician to his core. He wanted play both sides of all the issues and I'm not talking about I voted for it before I voted against it. On all sorts of issues he wanted to take both sides. The american people clearly saw what a shiftless character he is.

Let me ask you this, who's Theo Van Gogh? And why the glaring silence on the left about what happened to him. This is why you loons lost, b/c you're not even willing to admit when evil deeds occur b/c it might actually prove Bush right! Oh Horror!

If our children "are paying" for what Bush does, then I guess the millions and millions of people who died b/c of the Nazi's are paying for what Neville Chamberlain refused to do.
How about some comments on the UN Sham known as the Food for Oil Program. How about the millions of dollars that were diverted to Russia, France, Germany and China. Could it be that the real reason they didn't want to get rid of Saddam was b/c he was doing a nice job of lining their pockets with cold hard cash?

If you want to bash Bush, fine it's your right. But back it up w/ facts and not this nonsensical tripe. Please go to Canada, Sebastian. If think America is such a bad place then leave. if you truly have that little faith in the American government and people then go somewhere else.

Indeed I do know about Theo Van Gogh. How come nothing about it made the right-wing media either? Just a deafening silence in the US. In order to hear any kind of balanced news, you've got to look elsewhere.

By "our children paying", I mean the massive, crippling deficit that Bush is building up. Check out Morgan Stanley's Chief Economist's comments here.

Your comments seem to be all geared towards Bush's expansionist military takeover of another country. What has Bush done for the stability and future prospect of this country.

I don't believe either Sebastien or I are saying America is a bad place. I love this country. I just happen to think it is being run by a moron at worst, a puppet at best.

Anyhow, if you love your America so much, how come you're living in New Zealand (or at least using an NZ address). Pay and oppourtunities better there?
