Bush doesn't win the popular vote...again
but wins the Electoral College vote...again
and eggs are thrown at his limo...again
but we don't give up this time
Okay, don't get me wrong. I voted for Kerry. But if Bush wins the electoral college but not the popular vote, he's rightfully the president. That's the way our country works. Don't get your panties in a wad - there's nothing to "give up"

There are those who seem to think that losing the popular vote and becoming President is a new thing. It is not, Bush is not the first President to lose the popular vote.
There have been so many similar cases to 2000 in American history. Take the election of John Q. Adams, Andrew Jackson and Henry Clay as an example. That election was really determined in the House of Representatives. There are times when a President does not win enough electoral votes but he wins more then his opposition and thus becomes President.
So problems with the election did not begin in the year 2000. There have always been disputes and some problems with the elections.

From the Election 2004 thread:
I find it interesting that 90% OF AMERICANS IN WASHINGTON DC. VOTED FOR KERRY. this represents all america in a real way. the foundation of america started here.
John F. Kerry Dem 183,876 - 90 percent
George W. Bush (i) Rep 19,007 - 9 percent
Ralph Nader Ind 1,318 - 1 percent
David Cobb DCG 645 - 0 percent
Michael Badnarik Lib 442 - 0 percent
James Harris SWP 112 - 0 percent
think about this. doesnt this tell you guys something? like they know whats best for us?
How incredibly dense. DC also has one of the highest rates of drug abuse and murder in the nation, I guess that's representative too.

From The Official 2004 Election Reaction Thread
It's a Sad reality in this country where about 50% don't agree with who to running the country.
Oh, please, JM22. Shut up. Bush won with the highest margin of the popular vote that anyone has won since his father in 88. More people agree with him than agreed with him in 2000, and that agreed with Clinton. Get some education.

Oh, Lord. All you drama queen liberals make the rest of us look bad.
Seriously, JM22. Shut up. What the hell was the point of that copy-paste?
Although I'll be laughing my *** off from Canada while you all get drafted.
Dude, did you miss the part where Bush said that he was strongly against the draft?
Can you guys please stop spreading verbal diarreah all over the internet. Go move to Canada or something.

Something tells me JM22 isn't reading this, because he's still talking.
"One thing is for sure, George Bush Jr will go down in history with the most asterixes of any President. Two very close elections where neither was solved on election night."
How the hell was this a close election? By both the electoral vote and the popular vote, Bush won by a VERY fair margin.

Just a little info for the guys that think Bush will reinstate the draft -- only Congress can enact the draft, and if you missed it, they voted the idea down 402-2.
BTW, the 17 cosponsors were Democrats.

But you don't really think about that until your back is against the wall, and some idiot is fire an Ak-47 over your head.
So because some people don't think through their decision to join the armed forces it's considered a draft? That's the stupidest thing I've read in the past 5 minutes.

Ok lets get one thing straight, if they were to reinstate the draft they would start calling up retires first. See because of Kerry and the Clinton Adminstration in the mid 90's they down-sized the Military forcing 100 of thousands of troops into early retirement. So many of them are still elligible to be called back to active service and would be the first to be called back up before they started the draft.
Which its a scary thought because my father is one of those 100's of thousands of troops that would be called up. I don't like the idea as the next person. But it was a scare tactic by both to get you to vote for their guy. Because both sides were saying the other would reinstate the draft. So lets please remember this is nothing more then a scare tactic and theres more things at hand that are far more important.

I'm so damn sick of people saying they are moving to Canada. As if it is better here.
Sure I am not happy at all about the turn of events in 2004. I however don't think Bush is evil. I don't think we are all going to be drafted or that this is WWIII. I simply think the man is not fit to lead.
The far majority of America is not educated, I suppose their votes reflect this.

darth_boy said the following in this thread:
"[Arafat] is dying and all you care about is your political agenda. Its pathetic, but not typical of a pro-zionist."
Ironically, your comments are pathetic, and typical of someone who advocates killing innocent civillian women and children for no reason other than the fact they are Jews. Why don't you take your rabid anti-semitism somewhere else and let us mock a dying/dead terrorist jackass in peace?
