The obligitary American elections thread

[Brad]

Damn. The cretin is in for another four years. Four years is also incidently his mental age.

Well there's one advantage to bush being reelected: he CAN'T be in next time. American presidents aren't allowed more than 2 terms.

And let's see, since Bush won there's no need for vote recounds, yes?

Are the Americans stupid

Most of them are, evidently.

What a sad day for lovers of freedom, justice and peace. Truly terrible news.

All we can do is redouble our efforts to boycott the likes of Esso and Pepsi (who own Walkers crisps, by the way) as it was their millions of dollars towards Bush's campaign that probably tipped it in his favour. In this captialist world, the products we buy at the till have more effect than our vote at the ballot box.

Bush may be a total twit, but there's absolutely no way I'm giving up on drinking my favourite fizzy
beverage (Pepsi Max) just because that dumb get has won another four years in the White House!

The UK is totally screwed now with this retarded cowboy as president for the second time.

Damn Americans are soo stupid!

Im glad bush got back in, he started something, now he should finish it. I actually think it wouldve been a better idea for them to postpone the elections until the whole iraq thing is over.

Oh, and why are all the presidents rednecks?!

Im glad, [...] he started something, now he should finish it

Why should someone finish what they're doing if the people don't think it's right? As a more extremist example, if a president decided to initiate mass-destruction of everyone on this earth, should that president have to finish it?

I actually think it wouldve been a better idea for them to postpone the elections until the whole iraq thing is over

Well that's so completely ridiculous I won't even bother arguing with it. Moreover, that's exactly what George Bush would want. He only has another 4 years in office anyway.

The thousands of people who have died have died for OIL, cheese head.

That's why this was started, and don't ever forget it.

I'm not entirely sure you should be allowed to have opinions on politics.

And either way, American elections are fixed term -- the day after the first Monday in November. You can't call them when you want.

And the government wants to allow voting at 16!
